Owing to the small amount OF corn
saved along the banks OF Saluda, our
farmers are busy cutting and housing
the line hay, so abundant in this sec

fulfill the old adage, "Make hay while
the sun shines"

months, with no sign OF Improvement

The Lord has most wonderfully bless
ed us in one Of the most gracious re-
yivals that we have had at Bethabara
in number OF years. The preaching
was most earnestly, eloquently and sue
cessfully dane by that hard working
man OF God, Rev. j. b. PARROT. This
being the eighth meeting that he has
the work, for the Spirit Enthusiastically
blessed every service. Before the first
sermon was concluded, His power was
manifested by impressing our dear old
pastor and his people to humble them
selves before the Lord, imploring Him
for more faith. The prayer was answer
ed and eight joined, before the pro
tracted meeting closed. We are SO
grateful to the Lord for sending Bro
Parrott, and that through him, Jesus
has blessed pastor and people, honoring
that love which binds our hearts so
closely together, and we don't expect
anything but death to seperate us
