not ceiled inside. Later, the old
building was used as a school
for several years.
The Rev. Henry T. Ransom,
grandfather of R, B. Ransom,
of Dillwyn, was the pastor
Rev. John L. Spencer followed
him. In a short time Rev. F. B.
Underwood became pastor.
During the intervening years
of 1885 to 1886 because h e
church had no pastor nor Sun

instated into the association.
Many interesting things hap
pened in the following years, ac-
cording to the church records.
1T was passed unanimously
that any member Of said church
who shall hereafter miss three
successive church meetings by
their presence without valid
reason for their absence shall
be removed from said church. l"
Also, the delegates took to the
association $1.00 for association
funds. $l.OO for home missions
$40 for foreign mission and
Sl.00 for Sunday School Bible
Board.
During these early years
P. W. Banton, Preston Garrett
and Matt Taylor served as dea-
cons. C. 1. Taylor was clerk
and Walker Taylor. treasurer.
Work Of Mrs. Tucker
Thus. Bethlehem moved along
until 1913 when a friend riding
by one Sunday and seeing the
people coming out of the church
from Sunday school had vision
of new church. Right then she
decided to do something about
it. This friend was the late Mrs.
P. E. Tucker, wife of the late
DR.. P. E. Tucker, of Bucking-
ham Court House. She joined the
church there.
Soon a missionary society was
organized with 13 members,
with Mrs. Tucker as president.
The members soon caught a
vision Of the new church and in
1914 this vision began to broad
en-the old building was being
torn down. saws were buzzing,
axes ringing, hammers ham
mering. A new church was in
the making.
Mrs. Tucker rested upon many
oxcartS, convincing the people
Of their duty and giving en-
c0ura cement. Many were the
la wn parties when cakes
brought fabulous prices. one
