from SOC basket and upward. Com
mission men still make things lively
at the railroad siding and the almost
daily appearance of auctioneer Wright

Kenton and the day being delightful
there was large attendance from all
parts of Kenton County, New Castle
County and the eastern shore of Mary

Elder Whitley Meredith and were very
interesting. The day seemed like some
big family reunion for many friends of
Brynzion who at no other time of the
year attend the historic church, we're
there to greet old friends and to enjoy
the pleasant social intercourse that
these occasions can only bring about.
Many brought basket lunch and dinner
