Letter from Mr. Brackett.
UARrER's FERRY, W. Va,

IIARrER's FERRY, W. VA,
July p, 1888.
Editors RegiStT-I notice in your issue
of to-day some serious misstatements in
relation to the Free Baptist Home Mission
Society.
First. Only two lots in the Shenandoah
Valley have ever been decided to the Free
Baptist Home Mission Society. Those
were tho ones on which the first churches
were built, and are located at Martinsbulg
and Charlestown. The lots were both
purchased exclusively with money con-
tributed by friends OF the mission IN the
North. A large part of the money TO
build tho house, came from the same
source. Other churches are decided TO
local trustees in such manner, it IL
hoped, that they cannot be diverted from
the purpose for which they were erected.
The principal Of StOrcr College has in no
case interfcrcd with the management OF
the local trustees. The charge that two
churches so decided have been sold is not
true. SIr. Dunjcc was employed ut a
salary of $50 per month to establish
mission in Richmond. After liberal cX-
pcnditures of money by the society, aided
BY Rev. II. J.. Keycs, now OF Martins
burg, who raised money with company
of siugers, the whole affair was failure,
and in 1877 Mr.. Dun ce's agent advertised
the property for sale under heavy mort
gages. As agent of the Home Mission
Society / arrived in Richmond one day
before the sale was TO take place, redeem
ed the property and had 1t decided to the
Free VIII Baptist Home Mission Society.
Nh. Duuiea left the church in such rcputc
in Richmond that there could be no res
direction, and so the property was sold
and the money used for mission purposes
Ga part Of it at Sheph0rdstown}. No other
church property that was ever in the
hands Of the Home Mission Society has
been sold. y small church at West Point,
Va, was built by Rev. III. +. Reyes, with
money raised in the North, on lot owned
by Rev. 5. Curtis, of New Hampshire.
The Tildon campaign destroyed the
church, and the little house has been sold
and the money is being used for various
mission purposes. Some of Invent to
ShepherdStown also. supposcit is we'll
known that by far the larger part Of the
money to build the Free Baptist Church
at Shopherdstown came from tho North.
And now, Mcssrs. Editors, rs you seem
willing TO inform the public about the
Free Baptists, allow me to say that for
eighteen years past that small body of
Christians has been expanding annually
from three to ten thousand dollars In
mission work, educational and religious,
in Virginia and West Virginia. 1t has
carried nothing away, but has brought
large sums here. If you wish further
information about our affairs, please in
quirc of some one who riShes at least, to
give you the facts.
Yours, y. c.. BRACKETr.

Delightful Entcrtninments.-Tho
broom drill and concert given by the
ladies Of the Episcopal Church Friday
and Saturday evenings last were certainly
The most enjoyable affairs of the kind that
we have attended for some time. Friday
evening the hall was filled to its utmost
capacity, there being large number of
ladies and gentlemen from Martinsburg,
CharlestOwn and other places present.
The entertainment was begun by the drill
Of the Shcpherlstown Broom Brigade,
under the command of Captain" Fannie
Shepherd, and we arc certain that faircr
dercd arms-or, rather, brooms. The
young ladies' were handsomely uniformed
in cream-colored gowns, trimmed with
red, with jaunty caps, and each carried
the innocent-looking but dreadful implc-
mcnt-the broom. They went through
the mancuvers with skill and precision
that might be envicd by sterner veterans,
and were warmly applauded for the
graceful rendition of their part of the
programme. The musical portion of the
entertainment was i'll charge of Professor
Smith, of Frederick, and was participated
i'm by the Professor, Mr.. HumrickhOuse,
and Misses Harrison, Hall, Reynolds and
Pcndletou. The music was of q high
order, and most skilfully rendered, and
was greatly enjoyed by the large audi
cnce present. The hall was trimmed in
an attractive and tasteful style, and made
the stage look extremely well.
After the concert the audience adjourned
to the yard, where there was all abund-
anoe Of seasonablc refreshments served.
The yard WAS illuminated with Chinese
lanterns, and presented beautiful scene.
There were large number of persons
present, and all seemed to be enjoying
themselves. The entertainment was re-
peated on Saturday evening to good
audience, while there was 4 still larger
attendance at the yard. The entertain
ments were perfectly successful in every
way, and the ladies return their hearty
thanks TO the public for their very liberal
support and Kindness. The sum Of sos
was realized, clear of expenses.
The school EIection.-There were
not more than fifty votes polle6 in this
district at the election OIL TuesdaS last for
nine months school, and there wers> only
one or two votes against the nine months
term. 1t seems strange to us that as often
rs the school law has been amended, and
rs often as the attention Of our Legislators
has been called to the Inconsistencies of
the present law, that remedy has not
been provided aud fewer elections held.

a Great Nced.-Our attention has
again been called during the past week 10
the fact that while there are number Of
things in Shepher,lstown that deserve to
be remedied, there is one thing that we
need very much, and that is a public hall.
Last Friday and Saturday nights most
interesting entertainment was given, and
had there boon n hall OF sufficient size in
which 70 have held it, 1t would have been
far more agreeable to those who partici-
pated and to the audience, as well rs have
added considerably to the amount of
money realized. The room In which the
entertainment was heli-thc College Hall
was not nearly large enough to accom-
Modate the audience, did not give suffi-
ciet room for the maneuvcrs Of the broom
drill, while the acoustic properties were
simply awful when the ventilated
room WAS crowded with people. And it
is as good hall rs we have. too. Now
what sort Of opinion will the visitors from
other towns have Of our public hall faolli-
ties? IL IL certainly something TO ~
ashamed of when q town Of seventeen
hundred Inhabitants has 10 confess that it
has not hall that will comfortably ac-
commodate two hundred people. Why is
this so? 1t certainly cannot DC for want
of good example, tor there are remarkably
few towns of the size Of ShopherdstOwn
that have not ample accommodations for
snch purposes, and our people certainly
must acknowledge that We are away be-
hind tho times in this respect. will not
some enterprising citizen or citizens start
movement looking toward the filling OF
this long-felt want? We believe that il
MI effort WAS made by some enterprisimg
spirit that our people would join heartily
In the movement, and that In duo season
wo would have hall OF which We would
DO proud. Get tho ball in motion, aud VIC
arc confident that the ShepherIstown
people will keep IL moving.
