Some weeks ago, in mentioning the
names of the pioneer settlers OF the
Park who still survive, we overlooked
the name of DR.. w. NJ. Frysinger, D.
D., now residing at Heraldsburg, Cal
ifornia. He was, we think, the origi-
nator of the Mountain Chautauqua,
which, under the management of DR..
w. L. Davidson, became one of the
great chautauquas of the nation. We
are informed that Rev. DR.. Masden,
charter member of the Park Associ-
alton, is also still living. He had
built and with his family occupied
what is now known as "Allen-hurst."
DR.. Masden was a great preacher, a
popular lecturer and a genial gentle
man.
Miss Carrie Rudisill, who has been
visiting at the home of her brother,
Mr.. L. A. Rudisill, returned to her
home at CASTLE, N. Y, Tuesday, stop
ping en- route at Altoona, Pa, to visit
other relatives.
The Park parents are we'll pleased
with the appointment Of the teachers
for the public schools: Miss Emma
Hamill, principal; Mrs. Laura WEIGH,
primary department.
Miss Amelia Thomas, reported ill,
is very much improved, as is also Mrs.
James A. Hayden.
We notice that States Attorney j.
C. Renninger is to be one of the
speakers at the Law Enforcement
meeting in the Park, as is also Sena-
tor Robert E. Owen.
Warren Rathbun and son, of I'm
iontown, Pa, were weekend visitors
in this vicinity. Mr.. Rathbun and his
family moved to Uniontown from
Loeb Lynn about four years ago.
AS the season is about over here in
so far as summer gatherings are con-
cerned, it might be of interest to look
over the pleasant and interesting way
the people have come since June 26
when the splendid camp meeting be-
gan and which lasted fifteen days in
stead of ten days as in former years
and which was attended by tremend-
Gus crowds and with such splendid re-
suits. Those who were present at the
meetings were forcibly reminded OF
other wonderful years of the Parks
past. The first camp meeting on these
grounds was held in August, 1882
from the 10th to the goth Of July, un-
der the management of Rev. c. T
Masden, of Wheeling, West Va, anc
Rev. John Thompson, of Philadelphia
with other ministers equally as wei
known in their day.
The Epworth League gatherings
although of more recent date, are o.
great significance to the future Of the
Christian church, as the young mel
and young women are not only being
trained but volunteering in pushing
on the aggressive and successful worl
of the churches of the nation.
Then the School of Theology was O.
great help to the young preachers il
their conference course of study, which
requires four years, and now the plal
is to include a post graduate cours'
to prepare them for still more efficien
work in the ministry.
Under the leadership of DR.. w. W
Davis and his co-workers last Sunda!
