Shelby. The land, it is claimed, Is
about half a mile wide at the river
and runs fifteen or twenty miles east.
running out to nothing. A committees
was appointed to investigate the find
OF Justice Coleman. This looks like
good opportunity to spend more
money than either county will collect
IN taxes between now and the miIlen-
MUM on the land in controversy.
The Fifth Sunday Meeting of Big
Hatchie Association was held at Lib.
Sunday. The program as published

Sherroll, Burlison; w. II. Major and
W. E. Springer. Covington; j. T.
Davenport, Kerrville The attend
ance at all the services was very large,
and the hospitality of the community
gracious and ample. A movement
was set on foot at the meeting to buy
or build parsonage in Covington
for Liberty and Oak Grove churches.
To this end collection was taken IN
on Sunday morning after a sermon

utes was SlO82. In the near future il
Is expected that Oak Grove will take
up similar collection, and that an
ample sum will be secured TO procure
a splendid PASTORS home for these
aggressive churches. The Baptists of
