BY J. B. LANG.

The following is the history of the
churches and the places where religious
meetings have been held in The township
of Huntington. The first religious meet
ings were held at the house Of Isaac Sage
a mile south of the center. For the lack
of preacher Mr.. Sage would read a ser
mon from volume Of down east sermons.
Soon after a school house was erected
near this point where meetings were
held for some time. A log house belong
ing to Reul Lang was fitted np by the
MethOdists aud made regularpreaching
place on the Wellington circuit. As the
membership increased the meetings
were held in a school house at the center.
They finally decided to build a meeting
house. An obstacle was found in the
way. The land where they wished to
build belonged to Jess Johnson, who was
strong Baptist and refused tOsell it fora
Methodist meeting house, but by strategy
they got the lot and built the house
which was used until they felt able to
build better one.
Then arose another trouble, the mem
hprship was divided as' to the location.
Captain Tracy owned'rthe land next
north Of the cemetery, and proposed Ito
rive them a lot and a liberal donation
besides, providing the house was hull ton
his land. Two subscription papers were
gotten up, one for each location. A time
was set for report, which favored
Tracy's lot little less than ten dollars,
and Johnson, who was interested in the
center locatiOn'yet to hear from. Every
nerve was astrained, and johnson by-a
resolution was to have the last chance'to
subscribe. johnson taking the pen evil

laugh went up from the Tracy men,
to the chagrin of the center party. john
son refused to change his figures, and
the house was located where it now
stands. A few years previous to this
the Congregational society built two
story hOnse on the ground where the
town hall now stands, and by foolish
plan the upper story was finished for a
meeting house and the lower story re-
mained unfinished. This house was used
until they decided to build better one.

Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy

in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passag-

to get up many times during the night
to urinate. The, mild and the eXtraor-

MAY BRING SUIT.
Patillo Said to he Preparing to Sue
Jim Young.

II was rumored even before the trus-
fees of the deaf dumb and blind instl-
tuition met that patillo, who was after
wards defeated for principal of the col
ored institution by Joe Perry, would
bring suit against Jim Young for prefer
ing charges against him which caused the
board to postpone the election and thus,
he saws. lost him the position. This re-
port has been revived and it is said that
Mr.. Pittman, of Henderson, has been
retained by Patillo.
The charges, it is rumored, which were
repeated against Patillo were that his
books when superintendent of the Ok
ford colored orphanage were not correct.
Every man in Raleigh who knows Ia tillo
SAYS that this report circulated against
him was base and unwarranted SIAN
der. Jim Young denies that any charges
were made against him before the
board. He says that he has not writ
ten or published anything against the
man. and that he has done nothing for
which suit can be brought. Whether
Jim has wilfully misrepresented the
man to members of the board for the
purpose of influencing them is another
question which will no doubt develop
later
