UNION CHURCH IN NORTH oCALA

Mr.. w. H. McConn has been cir
culating subscription paper for the
benefit of a union church in North
Ocala. The intention is to build a
church near Mr.. McConn's residence.
1t is to be undenominational, and
open to the preachers and members
of all churches. 1t will, in fact, be
a missionary branch of all the
churches, and has their official sane
ton.
The idea in building this church
is to extend the privilege of attend
ing worship to all churchgoers in
this large and growing section of
town, which is at a considerable dis
lance from all the churches, caus-
ing many people to remain at home
Sunday, who would like to attend
worship. 1t is a praiseworthy object,
and deserves generous support.
Up to date, $277.50 has been rails
