Lodge No. 1855 met in their hall and
marched from there to Shiloh Bnpt
list Church where they celebrated
with an appropriate program. Rev.
r. w. Ashburn preached the anniyer
sary sermon, choosing for his text
the following: "As we have thar efore
opportunity, let us do good unto all
men, especially unto them who are
oc the household OF faith! Gal. $40
This Of course was a most appropri
ate text, and the manner in which
DR.. Ashburn dwelt on it made it
seem as though 1t was written for
this very occasion. Every one com.
mended the Reverend on the
way he handled this text and the i'm
preston he made on the public as
we'll as the Odd Fellows. DR.. II. J.
and Mr.. Benjamin Stokes
had excellent papers written from
subjects Of their own. Each gave q
splendid account Of themselves as

poses. the expenses having boon
paid by the Lodge.
