Milford chronicle., 1931-10-02


fall is here, and back of all this is
the cold arctic winds of the north
which will come sweeping this way
causing. us to seek the shelter of
the home and the comfort it affords.
Yes, fall is here!
BarTatt's Chapel
Many of our people motored Sun
day, to Barratt's Chapel and heard a
fine sermon preached by the Rev.
I. J. Sard, pastor of Asbury Church
of Crisfield, Md.
This was the 151st anniversary of
this old church which was erected
in the year 1880, and is called the
Cradle of Methodism" in America.
1t was here that Bishops Asbury
and Coke met in the early days of
the church and formulated a plan
which has produced one of the
strongest churches in America, and
whose houses of worship now are
situated in every city, town and
! crossroads in the country.
The cemetery adjoining the old
structure is large and well looked
after by a man who resides on the
spot. There are some very hand
some vaults and monuments in the
inclosure. Men, who during their
lives, were prominent in the affairs
of State, are inferred there.
Barratt's Chapel is one mile north
of the town of Frederick, on the du
Pont Boulevard.
Something To Think About!
The Judgment Day
Have you a neighbor who is sick?
Have you visited and cOmfOrted
her or him, as the case may be?
Have your carried a bouquet of
flowers to make the sick ones heart
glad? Perhaps the one who is very
ill belongs to the same church as
you do.
Have you thought about the win
ter supply of coal or work? If not
better get busy and see that your |
bins are filled with coal and the
wood pile is piled high. Sooner than
you think, the cold winds of winter |
will be with us.
Have you thought of the poor,
who when the cold weather sets in,
will not have either shelter, raiment
or food, to protect them from the
cold, biting winds of winter? Don't
only think of them. but aid them in
every possible way.
