Colored Camp Meeting.

There is a colored camp meeting being held
near Prospect in Wolford's grove, about n
quarter of mile south of the town. 1t began
on Friday last, and will continue week or
more On Sunday last, we, with others, paid
a visit to the grove, and found in the after
noon a large crowd in attendance. At one
o'clock the exercises were opened with singing
and PRAYER, the choir composed of about a
dozen fine singers, with organ accompaniment.
After which very interesting sermon was
preached by Rev. B. W. Thomas, of Fisk Uni
versity, located at Nashville, Tennessee. His
text was, "Behold there came a leper and
worshiped him, saying Lord, if thou wilt, thou
canst make me clean"
The next sermon was preached by Rev.
Whiting of Mansfield, Pa. This gentleman
gave his hearers well digested sermon, and at
times eloquent as well as interesting. He is a
good orator, voice strong and clear. This with
prayer and several beautiful hymns and jubilee
songs by the choir ended the afternoon exer-
cises On Monday and Tuesday nights, the
party gave concerts in the NJ. l.. Church, in
Prospect
We care not what may be said of worship in
the woods, it is certainly pleasant on a fine day
to spend few hours in this manner-out amsng
the forest trees, their tall heads uplifted to
heaven as if pointing with Natures own finger,
up to Natures God.
These ministries are certainly first-class sing
ers. There was a policeman on the grounds,
but his services were not needed, for queter,
more attentive audience could not be found
anywhere.
We noticed that Mr.. Kelso, proprietor of the
hotel on corner of Franklin and Butler streets,
was doing wholesale business in furnishing
the hungry with something good to eat and
he well deserves the name of prince in the
hotel business 1t is well worth the ride to
see and hear the worship in the woods"
