They did not recite the lesson that

way.
There were not so many as usual
at Sunday school last Sunday, as
there is some sickness in the neigh
borhood. Mr.. James McCain's lit
tie son James was right sick. I
heard Monday he is improving, I
hope he will soon be up again.
Mrs. Julia Townes came home
from there Monday and said he had
no fever when she left him.
Messrs. H. L. and II. G. Bunch
and Will Briggs went to EPge6eld
