In accordance with a long es.
tablished custom the Baptists held
communion and Foot washing"

on Weakley I'd Sabbath of this

in attendance as is usual on such
occasions. Rev Mr. Holt preached

pressively and decorously.
Miss Alice Cox of Pulaski has
recently been visiting friends on
Dry Creek. Mrs. Dunlap of Spring
and Hrs. Jones of Alabama have
been visiting in the vicinity of
Wales. We have pleasant recollec
tions of Mrs Jones as the vivacious
Miss Emma Paschal. Her pres
ence among us carried us back on
memory's golden wing to bright
scenes long buried in the great
mausoleum of the past-scenes, the
memory of which awakened in our
tosoms the liveliest emotions and
sent pleasant thoughts fitting swift
ly through the deepest chambers of
cur souls.
Rev. A. A. Bell, soliciting agent
of the Board of Publication of the

of last week was calling upon the

the great enterprise in which he is
interested and for the success of
which he is so diligently laboriug.
On Sabbath morning at Mt. Moriah
be preached one of his inimitable
sermons, and in the afternoon at
Wales he preached another. He
left us early Monday morning for
Pleasant Hill The memory of his
words still fingers with us, and our
prayers go with him, calling down
upon him the richest benedictions
of our benignant Heavenly Father.
His field is large one, his work a
great one. May God bless him,
help him, and give MIN strength for
his arduous labors.
The Bohemian Lodge F. and A.
Masons met last Wednesday in
their commodious, newly finished
hall. They seem to be proud of it.
and are under lasting obligations to
Messrs Willhoof and Jordan for
their neat and handsome workman
ship and for their moderate charges.
The windows are handsomely rur-
tanned with blue and a view from
the outside would lead the casual
observer to conclude that the Bo
denham Lodge i. and A. Masons
had accepted the blue glass theory
and had been engaged extensively |
in the purchase of that wonderfully |
renovating and enlivening article.
Officers were elected for the ensuing
twelve months as follows: John
Shores, W. NJ; b. A. Harwell, S |
W.; w. r. Black, Sec'y; II II Han
cock, Treas; G. W, Black and |
Thomas Reed, Stewards. Rev. MIR
Finley was appointed chaplain. We |
were glad to know that j. Conyers
Smith was able to be in attendance.
= The whooping cough is making a
severe attack upon the young peo-
pie of this community. Misses An
ME p, Sallie. and George w. have
it. We understand that it has
broken up Mr.. J.-K.'s school, and
so thinned out the ranks of Miss
C. BIS that she concluded to close
two weeks sooner than she had an
Last Friday we learn
was the occasion Of her closing ex-
ercises. Quite number of her
patrons were in attendance and
we're well pleased with the admira-
Die manner in which the exercises
we're oonducted. No effort was
made at display, but the whole per
iormance was creditable to both
pupils and teacher. The teacher
closed with beautiful. appropriate
md touching valedictory.
