Dr.. g. w. Grafton nreache,

DR.. G. w. Grafton preached
a most excellent sermon at the
Presbyterian Church Wednesday
night. The congregation was not
as large as it probably would have
been had the announcement that
he would preach at that time been
made earlier. It was not known
that services would be held at all
until a late hour in the afternoon,
but Notwithstanding this there
we're very few vacant pews. DR..
Grafton has many admirers in
