OLD FASHIONED DONATION AT PEACH
AM-On the Sd inst. the friends of the
Methodist minister, The Rev. I. E. Farrow,
paid him n visit and brought him and his
English bride numerous and various kinds
of presents to the amount of $72. 1t was
declared to be the largest ever made in the
town. About 50 persons took supper and
fully 20 more made their appearance
afterwards. Singing, innocent games,
&c, were INDUCED in until 10 o'clock and
all seemed to enjoy themselves. The pastor
expressed his thanks in suitable words.
One noticeable and beautiful feature of
the whole proceedings was the very
apparent good feeling which exists
between tho two churches. We were
honored by the presence and support of
the Rev. S S. Martyr, Principal Bunker,
NJ. A., w. Kicker, Esq, and several other
Congregationa]isls. Such state of feeling
auSurs well for the success of the gospel
in Pcacham.
