Pastor Pounded.


The ARRAY occurred in West Eud
Friday evening, which resulted in
Rev. B. r. Thornbury, the new
pastor Of the Second q. P. church,
receiving an unmerciful pounding.
His injuries will not prove OF a Sc
rious nature, unless he attempts to
consume at one time, the vast
amount of everything that tends
to make happy the inner man.
1t was the occasion of session
meeting of the church, at the par
sonage. But the deliberations of
that body were interrupted by the
arrival of about fifty members of
the church, loaded down with
everything that pastors heart
could wish, and taking that per-
sonage and his good wife CON-
pletely by surprise.
The evening was enjoyed by all
and with many kind expressions
for the pastors success repaired to
their home at late hour.
Mr.. Thornbury is a young man,
having just assumed charge of the
work, DR.. Campbell, the former
pastor, having resigned on &C
count OF i'll health.

INDIANS DID 1T.

are responsible for the long
