MONROE COUNTY ORGANIZED.
In due time I reached Union, the
county seat of Monroe. Here l
met a number OF good friends of
our cause, among them Mr.. Gro
zier, Prosecuting Attorney, Hon.
Frank Hereford, Revs. Killer and
Miller, pastors of the M. E. Church
South.
They have gem of a Court
House here, and in this the meet
ing was held. There was very
good interest.
Monroe county is organized as
follows:
Committee at Large, DR.. Geo. Nc
Donald, Chairman; W. II. Sydnor,
Secretary; john Crozier, Hon.
Frank Hereford, N. B. Campbell.
District Chairmaea, Rev. P. Ba-
ker, DIR. Henry Bull, G. E. John
son, j. H. Mcpherson, DR.. w. J.
Irons, J. D. Beard.
This is good county, with
many excellent people. No IL
censed saloons are permitted. How
ever, mineral water is occasionally
sold that smells very much like
alcohol.
Union is a quiet, substantial
town, of possibly 500 people, and
well supplied with churches and
schools. W.
After an early breakfast | rode
back in a farm wagon to Spring,
and taking advantage of freight
train / went up to Ronceverte. An
old-fashioned stage coach carried
me across to Lewlsburg in Green
brier county.
Dinner over at the hotel, l m ct
Col. Davis, and on his invitation
attended the funeral services of the
wife of a lawyer, at the Presbyter-
ian Church.
THE OLD LEWISBURG CHURCH.
This is an old building made of
stone, having been erected in 1895.
The walls are massive and will
likely be solid when the last trum-
pet shall sound.
What host of tender memories
must cluster around this old tenn
pie of God. How many voices once
heard within its sacred walls are
now hushed in the quiet of death.
Nearly three generations have
worshipped and passed away since
it was built. DR.. Lacy preached a
good sermon on the occasion.
Here l met also Rev. Collins
Denny, pastor of the M. E. Church
South also Judge McWhorter,
friend of the long ago.
Our meeting was held in the
public hall the audience rather
full, and the interest good. Judge
McWhorter presided and Brother
Denny offered an earnest prayer,
To the latter and his accomplish ed
wife | am much indebted for a gem
erous hospitality. l was sick and
