on the part of some of our native
Chatham boys to return to their
native county and we gladly welcome
them. Mr. Seymour does not plan
to live on this farm any time soon,
yet this purchase shows that he is
turning his attentions this way.

The young people of Brown’s
church are not doing as much as
they might as a league, but they are
holding on against the ups and downs.
We older folk do not give them the
encouragement and help we should.
One day they are to bear the bur
dens of the church. Our boys and
girls should regard the church as a
sacred and holy place and make use
of every chance. They are becom
ing accustomed to doing some things
and we should be proud of them.
The third Sunday in May is to be
Children’s Day and will probably be
also recognized as a memorial day,
when all the former members of
Brown’s Chapel are to be invited to
return and share in the service that
day. Dinner will be served.
