Well worth mentioning At the Sabbath
school convention, held last week at the
Marietta camp ground, the pleasing and
notable fact was brought out that not
one of the children as grand. children, Of
our aged and consistent brother, j. W.
Allgood, has ever remained out Of connec
ton with the church longer than their l4tt
year. Here is great lesson in christian
example, for this old snd ripe christian
gentleman informed me that he and hi
young wife agreed the day they were mar
| ried, that the family altar should be erect
ed, which wss kept between them for 5e
years, when she died; and now, at 70 years
of age, he is still a regular attendant at
church though living two miles away, with
rough road intervening; is teacher in
the Sunday school, and still retains the
christian home altar erected e. years ago.
