/ The fourth Sunday in Apr
brought everybody, his wife ant
two children, TO the G. P. church q
t Pleasant Hill. which was in session
| from Thursday, 18th, until Monday
afternoon. Those who attended
| the ecclesiastical. meeting found
their proceedings quite interesting
The preparations were ample and
good, so much so that it began to
be whispered around that they
could entertain Synod. Sunday
of the meeting was a dripping day,
which took the starch out of many
a well-set frock, as well as spelling
the polish of the boots and damp
ening the feathers of not a few
plumes, but for all of this every one
seemed to be happy over the occa
sion, for when they could not sing,
they talked, and when they could
not hear, they laughed, trying to
keep themselves well employed IN
til the clouds should break away.
In the morning DR.. T. e. Blake
preached to an orderly and well
1lled house, but the confusion of
tongues could not excel the racket
that filed the house during the
evening. There were several visi-'
tors from all the neighboring towns
as well as the country. Their
names if all known to the writer
would occupy all the space allotted
to one correspondent. will say,
however, that Prospect sent down
from the telegraph office the night
who had multiplied mis-
fortunes. He was hungry and ate
too much pepper pie, which made
him quite unwel, and. in his con-
fusion his feet became crossed, dis
locating his ankle, and in making a |
desperate effort to act himself all |
straight again, he turned over two
gallon coffee pot, scalding both feet
and one of his knees, and finally
havi G to be hauled back to his OPP
erations in q two horse vehicle.
Miss Lula Smith came to visit
her pa ents and friends, bringing
two young ladies from college
Misses Taylor and McLain.
