Last Sunday morning made us feel
glad as the sun rose and seemed TO
give fair indication Of fine day, but
we were soon made to feel dreary as
the rain in torrents fell upon US After
few hours this was again suPplanted
by sun shine which made everything
look fresh and pure. Our churches
were largely attended. at the Fifth
Street Church the bsccalaureate ser
mon of the Hsrtshorn Memorial Col
lege was preached by Prof. L. B. Tefrt.
A magnificent audience was present.
A fine sermon was preached at the
Fifth Street Church on last Sunday
night by Rev. DR.. Bowling Of the Tide
water District Rev. Bowling is an
able speaker and holds sway on any
audience to whom he speaks.
The congregation of the Moore ST.
Church listened to three excellent SER
mons preached by Rev. Brown of

dria and Rev Campbell of Lynchbure.

was again shocked by the sudden death
of Mrs. Jessie c.. the wife of our de-
ceased DIR. s. II. Dismond. It was
stated that about B 80 she in company
with her friend, Miss Eugene Oliver,
went out for ride on their wheels.
They had not been gone very long be-
fore Mrs Dismond began TO feel the
effects of the spin, and her head be-
came unsteady whereupon she fell
from the wheel. 1t is thought Dy the
doctors that her death Was due to the
congestion OF the lungs, which was
caused by this laborious exercise
1t had only been two months and
fourteen days from the sad demise o
her husband. Her funeral took place
on last Tuesday at the First Baptis
Church, Manchester, Va.
