A Proposed New Enterprise.

Elkton is in fair way to secure
another important mandatory princi-
pally through the interest of Rev. Father
Carey. the energetic and progressive pas
tor of the Elkton Catholic Church.
Father Carey last week brought his
friend Mr.. VIM. McDevitt to Elkton to
look at the towns advantages. Mr.. Nc
Dewitt, capitalist of Columbia, Pa, has
been for several years engaged in the
manufacture of bar iron. He constructed
works of this character at Columbia and
after two years operation the stock is
valued at $145, the par value being 500.
Mr.. MoDsvitt has just constructed
another mill at Norristown, Pa.
He offers to invest $25, 900 in mill at
Elkton provided the citizens will sub
scribe $25, 900 Of the stock. At a meet
ing held this week which was attended
by several business men of the town it
was evident that the enterprise was
favorably considered. Several persons
have announced their intention of taking
stock. The works would employ about
1875 men. The vicinity Of Red Mill is
mentioned as possible site. Land there
can be obtained at a reasonable price
We hope the proposed new enterprise
will be carried through successfully.

the pulpis at the close of the services and
said to her pastor Rev. S. J Griffith, that
she wanted her son Fredus' name entered
on the record as member of the church.
This was at the log school house in Elk
Neck before the building of Wesley
Chapel Three years later he experienced
a change of heart. He married the eldest
daughter of John Grant, who was one of
the first trustees of Union Church. He
organized the Sabbath School at Wesley
Chapel under large tree, after having
been refused the use of the schoolhouse
for that purpose. He has from early
manhood been intimately associated with
his pastor III church work, and was for
many years an active Official member OF
the church. Early in life he became inter-
ested, and consequently identified with
the temperance cause. In 1886, he in.
troduced the Rev. John S. Inskip to the
family of Isaac Foster, whose daughter
Mr.. Inskip afterwards married. Brother
Aldridge is closing his nth year in this
world of trials, temptations, and sorrows,
but is happy in Christ, through whose
blood he enjoys the forgiveness of sins,
and bright prospect for heaven.
George c. Weaver, a class leader, is the
oldest male member of the Church, at
Union. He has been quite active III

girlhood is one of the purest and most

lie X. Shippers, the daughter of VIM. Sim
pers with whom Bishop George stopped
over night in 1898, is III her Slst year.
She professed faith in Christ and joined
the church in 1915, during the Passionate
of John Gotorth. The Old log house in
which she lives was built by her father,
in 1906 There have been four and but
four deaths in this house in all these
years. William Shippers, who built the
house died here at the age of 81; Sallie
Shippers, his wife at tie age OF IS; Will

aud Miss Bette Shippers, their daughter,

the house and does all the mousse work
for her family-making and printing from
7 to 10 pounds of butter per week. Mrs

the buffalo robe and blanket, and the child
fell down in front of the buggy where it
remained until 4 p. M, when it was found
in the woods near DR. X. Bromwell's, the
horse being caught among some trees. 1t

otherwise little damaged.
