Last Sunday afternoon we made @
short visit into the country and had
the pleasure of worshipping with the
Flat Rock Presbyterian cOngregatiop.
Rev. III. r.. Murchison, the pastor, wac
greeted by large congregation and
preached most interesting and inn
preseive sermon on the subject of
Faith" While walking over and
around this beautiful, historic PLACE
our mind naturally reverted to onr
~bnyhood6 days. when we frequently
visited that section and spent some OF
our happiest days. Many changes
have occurred since then and nearly
all OF the older citizens of that section
have gone to their eternal homes. AT
the Church we had the pleasure of
greeting Mrs. Malinda Hall, the widow
OF the late W. s. Hall. who is now
more than four score years Of age, and
services.
y Both Anderson and Belton regret to
learn OF the recent removal of Robert
n. Baker and family to Ta!lapoosa,
ga. Mr. Baker has e responsible posi-
Southern Biscuit Works, of Richmond,
and has taken this step in order to To-
cate his family at q central point in his
territory. They will be missed, espe-
cially III the musical and literary worlds
1f our community. For years Mr.
Bakers. splendid voice was q feature in
the choir of the First Baptist Church.
Mrs. Bakers success in the literary
field has been marked, considering the
fact that she refuses to allow her pen
to- encroach upon her household duties,
which she considers paramount to ali
others. Besides having recently won
several prizes, abe will have q serial
story al The Southern Presbyterian,
beginning. some time in June. Both
Mr.. and Mrs. Baker are worthy mem
bers of good, old Carolina families,
and as such we commend them to the
