BELLAIRE.
+. G. MORRIS proprietor Of the Globe
House, fulfilled his promise to Rev.
Rodgers, made some time ago, by attend
ing the NJ. L. Church on Sunday night
last. DR.. w. w. Junking was to ac-
company him, but for some reason the
Doctor did not come to time. We sus-
pect that the Doctor concluded it would
be too heavy a dose for both to put in an
appearance at once, and indeed it would
be hard to imagine what the effect might
have been on the congregation. Zeke
faced the music like little man, and a
gentleman who accompanied him, says
he did not know how to act in church:
that he forgot to remove his hat, aud that
he did not know what 10 do with his
hands, and that he had to hold him in
the seat when fellow opposite spit on
the floor; but we suspect he was SANDER
ing "Zcke,' and We don't believe any
such stuff. "Zeke' was greatly pleased
with the sermon, and says Rev Rodgers
must eat "chicken" dinner with him Mt
the Globe House before leaving Belairc.
