EDITOR "CATocTIN CLAR1oN:'

In your issue of March 18th, Their
appeared an item in reference to 9TH
locality known as Rocky Ridge" whicl
says 1.-The Thinker Church, in whicl
some of the old fathers of the faith lii
inferred" This Of course is intended
to mean The German Baptist Church
But the error to be corrected is, nom
Of tie old futhcrs of the church lie N,
TERED here, the place being of too re
cent date for that. The first preach
ing ever done there by any person wa.
by Elder D. P. Sayler, on June 5th
l84S, in a small, dirty, old log school
house its ceiling not more than foot
above his head. Mr.. Sayler was then
young and was in his noviciate.-
Prior to that no minister thought Of
stopping so low as to preach in that
place. Again the item says, Here is
where Elder Peter Mead and Lorenzo
Dow preached in the old times of
Frederick county" TO this it is only
necessary to say Elder Peter Mead
never sn'v the place, much less did he
ever preach there. The German Bap-
fist Brethren built small meeting
house there in 1850, and on December
9Th, 1855, small church was organ
lied, with Elder d. P. Sayler it's
pastor: in whose charge the church
still is. In 1858 an addition was
built to the house, making it its pres
ent size.
ONE WHO Knows.
1--WE publish the above from cor
respondent, but respectfully submit
that he is mistaken in some particu-
lars. 1t is quite certain that Lorenzo
Dow preached at Utica and at Rocky
Ridge in 1907, or else the &" american
Vo('tntecr," paper published in Fred
erick, in 1907, and whose Editor, Mr.
VIM. B. Underwood was thoroughly
posted upon Pipe Creek and Carroll
county affairs, was eSregiously mista-
ken. Dow preached in the woods in
Rocky Ridge, according to the testi-
monv of old Henry Whitmore in 1907,
on the 18th Iav Of September, the day
of the month that King George III,
was crowned and Elder Peter Mead
preached in the woods. according to
the Uniontown "Enqi,,c of Libeytv," u
on the Doth of September, 1916, the
day on which John the Baptist was
beheaded. We don't say they preached
in the New Church. "The German
BAPTIST Church, but rather we think
they preached in the woods or near bv. |
We think some of the early professors
Of the "Tunkor faith" liz inferred
there: we know Of some who were re-
oardpd rs orthodox who are buried !
there and they certainly were on
titled to our rcspe and regard for
their primitive Simpli .itv of manner
in following the faith profos.cI and
taught by the fathers Of the Thinker
faith. Why We think it was on this
same Rocky Ridge, if Mr.. Benjamin
Whitnorr is to be h"Iiov}I, where
Elder Peter Mead first conceived hi: !

In the midst of the busy scenes
growing out OF the advent Of the Rail
road to our place, the more practical
matters relating to our future pros
peritv as a village and community,
seem to be overlooked or neglected.
Amongst the latter a Building Asso-
citation is, in the judgment of many
persons, the most needed. 1t is not
the purpose of the writer hereof to
advocate the advantages of such an
association, but simply to call public
attention to the fact that while almost
every little town in the State has az
organization of the kind, Mechanics
town, with Railroad communication
east and west, with a bright future
before her, attempts nothing of the
kind. viii you not, Sir, endeavo1

6ssy creatures.
But, oddly enough, no sooner lad
poor Elm settled on the place. than all
the 6sh seemed to have swan of to other
vstsrs and after trying 10 vain to earn
. living, hs vas forced to leave. A. be
vas riding past weir. (tbat is . sort Of
dam, built Of woven sticks and twigs, to

lying on it. that hs took to b. au

"that has been eating up oil ny 6shf'
But on going out to kill II. hs foand

FREE RELIGION.

Mr. EDIroR- There has sprung
up in this country movement
known by The above title. This
movement is scholarly, growing
and popular, and numbers among
its adhere nts many OF the best
men and women Of the land--men
and women noted for their learn
ing and philanthropy. rs well as
for their catholicity Of opinion.
Their faith is the outgrowth OF an
Interpretation of the needs and
feelings of the age. AS may be
expected of movement so char
acterized, it has it's misrepresenta-
tives. To the lectures of ono such -.
our citizens were invited last week.
Comment upon the merit of what
he did say. is unnecessary, but his
attempt to attract attention under
name falsely applied, should not
60 unnoticed. Any Of his few
hearers who had been with the
crowds who listened to the dis.
courses Of Rev. VIM. j. POTTS.
(Secretary Of the American Free
Religious Associatiou) tast fall,
will not be deceived by this bah.

Destructive Fire,

The Paper Mill Of Messrs. Nixon Bros.
was destroyed by FIRE on Tuesday evening, at
six O'Clock. The upper part of the building
was enveloped in flames, and had made such
Roadway that it could not be saved when the
engines arrived. Considerable stock was
burned, and all the light machinery was
ruined; the heavy machinery was partially
saved. Loss estimated at from $4,000 to
$4,000. Insurance on building $1,000 no
insurance on stock or machinery. 1t is not
known how the fire originated, as there had
been no fire about the building dnring the
day.
Two men, Adam Hershfeld, machinest at
Cars Foundry. and James T. Smith, First
Assistant Of the Hook and Ladder Company
ald Foreman at Col. Perry's Paint Shop
were knocked down by the Hook and Ladder
carriage, the wheels passing over them, ard
at first it was thought they we're cons dera-
ably injured, but we are CAD to learn not
dangerously.
The fremen responded promptly to the call +,
and used every exertion il their power to save
the building and machinery, and at no fire in
Richmond did the iremen work moro vigor-
ously. The building being frame and very
dry, all the upper part was destroy ed.
