Woman's Missionary Union con.
fyened at Bold Springs Wednes-
day, August 2Sth. The two previ-
|ous meetings of this body have
Ebeen. held in May, but for various
reasons it has been decided to

[senting nineteen societies, circles
and bands. There are now thirty
Esocieties in the Edgefeld associa-

Mrs. f. P. Rush. of Bold Springs,
responded to in behalf of the
delegates by Miss Jenaie Patti
son, Edgefeld.

the support of a missionary, S25o
