METHODIST MEETING CLOSES.
MANY CHARMING SOCIAL OC-
CURRENCES PAST WEEK.

The Methodist protracted meeting
closed Sunday evening. 1t was one of
spiritual power, and we hope that
much good was done. The good ser
mons by Rev. Holloway were full of
warning and pleading. Congregations
were fine and the congregational sing
ing was excellent. There was one ad-
dition. At the close of the meeting
steps were taken to have the church
building repaired. A committee is
now busy raising the money and
work will begin at an early day, per-
haps next week. Let all of US help the
committee.
