Historic Barratts Chapel was the
scene of an immense gathering from
all parts of the surrounding states
on last Sunday. Sunday was an ideal
day and motorists began to arrive
in the morning and lunched in the
grove. DR.. Harvey Ewing of Newark
delivered the sermon which was eX-
cellent. The Magnolia choir, assisted
by Mrs. Tatman and daughter OF
Greenwood, gave a beautiful song
service. Quite number of ministers
were seated on the platform. The
entire program was thoroughly en-
joyed. Rev. Spry and his co-workers
are to be congratulated on the splen-
did success of the occasion. Ihe
cemetery under the supervision OF
Mr. Handsbury was in perfect order.
1t has become the custom to deco
rate the graves on this day with as
much zeal as on Decoration Day
probably because more visitors visit
the graves of loved ones at this time
from a distance and bring their Of
ferings of love and remembrance.
