About our Ohurches-What we See and
Hear while Rambling.

Last Sunday was one of the pretti-
est days we have had this year, and
our churches were greeted with large
audiences.
At the Moore st. Church, Rev. R. o.
johnson preached an excellent sermon
to large audience on last Sunday
morning
Excellent services were held at the
Ebenezer. Sixth Mt Zion and Fifth St.
Baptist Churches on last Sunday.
Mrs. Sarah e. Smith who has been
very sick for several weeks past, is
much improved.
The funeral of Mrs. Mary Hooper's
Young child, who was burned to crisp
a few DAYS before, took place at her
residence on last Sunday. 1t was q
sad occasion. The mother was thrown
| in convulsion from the effects.
We learned that several political
meetings were held during this week
| in this section with no results. The
one on Tuesday night was broken up
| in confusion.
Marriages sre still in progress, and
those bells are sounding loud.
Well Sunny, we would say in answer
to your query concerning the ages oi
old maids and old bachelors, that two
score years of single life makes a mar
an old bachelor, while one score anC
l5 years makes a woman an old maid
but she is never that age, until shl
marries We have not 8 recognized
bachelors club, but enough to form
