sufficient capital to put this enter
prise through and it is up to the
people of Morgan county to give
them all the aid and encouragement

During the past few years, however,
IL has been held under the auspices
Of Ebenezer M. z. Church. The woods
which is situated IN Mill Greek Hun

four miles from Newark, Is an ideal
location for such a celebration. The
Rev. j. II. Geoghegan, the pastor and
members Of the church had complete
arrangements for the comfort Of the
usual large crowd.
The crowd was as large and many
thought larger than II has been for
several years During the day and

5000 persons visited the woods. Hun
