More than one hundred persons rep.
resenting the societies that constitute
the Rainsboro charge met at the M. E.
parsonage at 2p. m. last Saturday and
made the pastor, Rev. G. L. Winget, and
family, liberal donation, consisting in
cash to the amount of $77.45, and -four,
meat, lard, butter, dry goods, groceries,
dried fruits, green fruits, vegetables,
honey, queensware, corn, &C., &C., rep
resenting cash value Of probably $50
more. But the love, good will and gen.
erous impulses that prompted those
numerous gifts could not be computed
in dollars and cents. The coming of the
people and the free will offerings which
they brought were complete surprise
to the worthy pastor and his estimable
companion, and though little nom
plused at first, they soon regained their
usual self possession and gave their nu-
meIous guests cordial welcome. The
occasion partook of the nature of two
surprises. The first was the coming OF
the people and the tokens they brought
in their hands. and the second was the
purse Of money presented farther on by
Rev. ]. I. Taggart in behalf of the
donors, to which the pastor responded
in a feeling and eloquent manner and
kindly thanked the people in behalf of
himself and family for their kindly
greetings and liberal donation, and did
not fail to express his gratitude that old
Sam, his faithful horse, had not been
forgotten. The Doxology was sung and
the crowd dispersed, wishing the pastor
and his family many returns of the sea-
son.
