ED Sp1R1r: The new NJ E Church
at Miltonshurg, Monroe County. Ohio.
was dedicated July 30th, 1876, by Rev.
S Grouse, Of Woodsfeld, whose servi-
ces were timely rendered and highly ap
preciated by all present In this com
munity it has won for him a. name, not
soon to be forgotten. Notwithstanding
the inclemency of the weather, our house
was filed to its full capacity, before the
hour for preaching had arrived. Mum.
ibers who had started, were compelled
to retreat, in consequence OF The rain
which fell in torrents, and seek shelter
in barns, sheds and neighhoring houses
Many who succeeded in reaching our
quiet little village, were so drenched
with rain, that they did not rake their
appearance OF church. =.
From what we have learned since, had
the day been favorable, there would have
been the largest number of people here
ever known before. All these things
seemed against us. Yet God was with
us, and when the call was made fol
money to cover the cost OF our small
though neatly arranged church, there
was hearty and willing response by
all present. Every countenance seemed
to say, will lend helping hand, W.
raised between three and four hundred
dollars, though not enough to cover th!'
Indebtedness OF the church, yet from
tthe,hearty response Of those who wer'
present, we are confident, that had tn
lday been favorable, we would have rails
led every dollar needed. We tender ou
thanks to the public, for their liberality
ever praying that Heavens richest tless
