4 Frog Walked Up.

FoEEsroN, Aug. 7.-Mr. Editor Dear Sir:
Did you see that Frog rised up in the For
eston Fragment, on 18th July, and attempt
ed to show US that B. L. Princeis not intitle
to the honnor conferred upon him, by empt-
ing his Bag of untrue. The first faulce he
told, was, that B. L. Prince was the least
concerned being simply a member of Said
church, when he B L. P is a member and
live Stewart of Pine Grove church, and al
so Trustee, and Teacher of the Sunday
School of Pine Pine Grove 4. NJ. E. church
AS to the few dimes, we would like for Frog
to let US know what he does call few
dimes, as he knows so much about it. If
he will tell US how meny dimes he has con-
tributed, we would know when we contrib
butte meny Dimes Now faulce without
end, is, 'sthat B. L. Prince put forth no ef-
forts to the Said Building" is notorious
faulce, and can be proved by any responci-
BILE member much less the Officers of Pine
Grove A. NJ E. Church, and Readers can
refer to them at any time. Now MIR. Edit
or, Why that Frog Jumpt at B. L. P. in such
way we can'ttell. and Frog you, when you
rise again, please tell B. L. Prince what he
done to you, as everybody is so much sur
prise, to see such uncalled for Article. If
Frog done so much that he thinks he should
have credit, he ought to demand it and not
try to take away some body's who worked
and ern theirs Now if any one desire to
know whether these saying are so or not,
they can refer to the secretary OF Pine
Grove A. NJ. E. Church or any one of the
C-icers of the above church and whether,
he put forth any efforts toward the Fores-
ton A. NJ. E. building or not, and who lift
and paid out the amt from Pine Grove, on
the said building. and also who have got
in hand the receipt to show what has been
paid out on the said building. Men ought
to be more carfull how they strikes at an
other for no cause and let what they say be
true. If B. L. P. is not made foeman by
the bord of building committee, we can
find it out by referlng to them. We learnd
that Rev. Thomas Brown, on Sept 3rd, 1887.
formed committee of CD to meet at Fores-
ton S. C. for the perpose of building Par
sonage, and church at Foreston connecting
with Pine Grove, and Biggers A. N. =.
church, that committee rallaed to the call,
though he not being present him self, 'the
committee agreed" and commence their
arrangement, they take in two more MEM
bers. That committee was composed of
Sumtor Burgos, Sydny Burgos, of Biggers
4. NJ. E. Chu. Simon Houston, Ellie King,
of Foreston, Strapan Pendergrass, B. L.
Prince, Sam Simon of Pine Grove. of this
committee B. L. Prince was made foeman,
and Simon Houston assistance.
The Annual Conferenc soon came on and
they could not do much, on account of get
| ing evrything ready for the conference,
''but keep evrything still moving, and Of
ter conference was over Rev. c. F. Brogdon
come in. he asked committee to please
hurrow and provid away for him and fami-
ly as soon as possible which they did, and
soon had him and family in the Parsonage.
B. L. P. took Strapan Pendergrass. went
up to Mr.. Land & Mason get them to order
some Furniture, went and saw the Stewart
esses, got them to come and fixed up the
House and soon B. L. P. took his Horse
and wagon. gethered up all the provision
in his sexton CARED it to him and told him
to live and and preach. And he is doing
| so find, that he is almost too fat to preach.
| the wether being SO worm. Sc Frog, when
you rise again please come little near the
truth, don't like to talk with man so far
from the Road, you being stranger. Please
pardon me for calling you Frog and you
name is P "but only called you that be-
cause P. Stands for Poles and Tadpoles are
