the pleasant features of the day was
in having Edward Schilling, of Cum

Schilling was a member of Mt Zion
church in his youth, leaving these
parts in 1862 to join the Union Army
and, having formed other ties, he
never returned. Recently he wrote e
the present pastor, Rev Robinson, to
inquire if any Of his old friends still
lived and was given a cordial invita-
ton to visit the church and other
old-time haunts. He recalled many
incidents of past years, remembered
most Of the old citizens, nearly all OF
whom now lie beneath the sod. He
remembered, too, the day of dedica-
ton and the text taken from the 50tk
Psalm When a boy Mr.. Schilling
