Here Is the story Mrs. Dennis tells a.
to how Larney became a preacher:
when about 2 years Old and before
he knew his A B Cs Larney was
greatly attracted by several books fineG
with Biblical stories and profusely IL,
| lustrated lie asked numberless ques.
tions about each Of the pictures, anG
soon he knew all about the story coins
with each picture.
His father was always glad to give
the little one all the knowledge in his
possession, and after q time the habit
| grew as he grew. Soon Larney's daily
conversation was taken up in talking
about the Bible. He would get out or
the front porch in his childish manner
| and build what he called a pulpit out OF
his blocks. Fe would then mount this
and in a loud voice would try to imi-
tate preacher.
He soon attracted persons who were
passing, and in short while he was
the talk of the neighborhood. Every
day the visits Of friends and ne!ghbors
to talk with him ana hear him preach
increased, and subsequently his gift
seemed so marked it was decided to let
him preach"
Larney's preaching seems to consist
In repeating Biblical stories and an

and sometimes lifts his childish voice
to lead his audiences in singing hymns.
Here Is an example of some Of the "in-

he replied amid laughter.
What is the gospel?"
"The gospel is the gospel"
What is salvation"

What is the Bible?"
"The Bible is the Bible"
who wrote it?"
Wrote by man, inspired by God"
who told you to preach the gospel?"
"God."
How are you going b save souls?"
"By prayer"
Larney expects. or rather Mrs. Dem
mis- says he does, to travel around the
world. saving people everywhere.

been unceasing in devotion to the inter

deposited in the National State bank to
the credit of Mrs Davis.

Married..

Two souls with but single thought,
Two hearts that beat as one
The home of Mr. Samuel w. Reavis,
near town, was the scene of quite Il pretty
marriage on the evening of Jan. 25th,
1899, when his second daughter, Miss
Eitula Green. became the wife of Mr.
John Spain, of this county.
The rooms were tastefully decorated
with evergreens, which, together with
the cheerful glow of freight and bril-
liancy OF the dying sunbeams, rendered
it a scene of rare loneliness. Promptly
at half past four the fair, blushing bride,
most bewitchingly attired in a lovely
suit OF green and cream satin, leaning
upon the arm Of the happy bridegroom,
marched into the parlor, where, in the
presence of few friends and relatives,
the Rev. Mr.. Daily, in a most beautiful
and impressive manner, pronounced the
solemn words that made them man and
wife.
The bride is young lady of rare
beauty, both of mind and person, her
mild disposition having won for her
many friends and admirers. "To know
her is to love her." and her husband is
to be congratulated upon the wisdom OF
his choice
Thegroom is we!lknown and popular
young gentleman OF sober, steady, in
dustrious habits.
Immediately after the ceremony the
bridal party repaired to the home of the
groom's father, Mr. Robert Spain, where
a reception was given the newly welded
pair.
AS they sail forth upon the matrimo
NAL sea they are followed by the best
wishes of their numerous friends for
many, many years OF Joy and happiness
