Mr.. T. B. Henderson, of Webster.
who for a number of years was presi-
dent an active worker of the Brock
inridge County Sunday School Con-
vention, is summering in Canada with
Mrs. Henderson, and altho he could
not attend the convention, he sent
his regrets to Mrs. V. c. Babbage,
who arranged the program for the
convention and invited Mr.. Hender-
son to take part.
Friends of Mr.. Henderson will be
glad to hear from him through this
letter addressed to Mrs Babbage.
Il suppose you are wondering why
| have not answered your letter but
it reached me last night Mrs. Hender-
son and | have been up in the North
country with our son, Wathen and
family for quite while. | assure
you that had | been at home you
would have heard from me sooner
for | am. and have been for years,
very much interested in Sunday school
work.
Il feel sure some of the Webster
folks will be there. Had | received your
letter in time would have written the
school at Webster to elect delegate
to go down. do hope you will have
fine convention 1t is a great dis
appointment not to be able to attend
myself. | remember my pleasant stay
with you some years back at one of
the meetings held there in interest of
Sunday schools | was always glad
of an opportunity to go to Cloverport

AID Fisher. thought well of him.
Will Take Southern Route.
I'VE will be here until fall and
then expect to go by way of Walla
Walla, Wash, to visit our daughter
and family, and return home by
Southern route We think this will be
our last long trip as we are getting
to be old people though | can hardly
for our age. We are having a pleas
ant time. Have had no warm wealth
err
This is a wheat country as we'll
as oats. Seasons short and can raise
no corn, no fruit and few berries 1t
is costly place to live. Things are
much higher at home while high
high there.
while we are having a good time
there is no place like Kentucky and
especially Webster. Though this is
a good community, good citizens,
who are more law abiding than in
the States Religiously, they seem cold
and formal, though | may be mistaken.
AS whole they are fond of sports
and fun. They are more liberal in
their contributions than we, seem not
to mind spending their money. Land
here, like it is there, has gone much
higher in the last three years.
Il have attended Sunday school and
church every Sunday since we came
Live two miles out from town, so it
is no trouble to attend services every
Sunday for it has been my custom
for 40 years. Have been official that
long and Superintendent for 80 years.
81 often think of your family Mrs
Henderson and | talked a few days
ago about old times. Spoke of your
father who was one of my very good
friends. | liked him very much. Many
of our old time friends are gone. |
want to visit Cloverport sometime
and see you folks. Ella Norman was
one of my young manhood friends |
was fond of her but have seen so lit

warm friends at Webster from whom

and that you may have a great Con-
vention. am your friend, T. B. Hend-
erson, Goran SASH Canada.
