Evangelistic Services at Poplar Tent. The meeting conducted at Poplar Tent the past week by Rev. Wm. Black, of Charlotte, came to a close last night with an attendance that taxed the capacity of the church. Mr. Black was assisted by his singer, Mr. Andrew Burr, of Canada. The services were well attended throughout the entire week. There were forty-four additions to the church at Poplar Tent and several joined other churches. Two hundred eighteen dollars was con tributed to the work represented by these evangelists. Several came out from Concord and greatly assisted in the song services. Al so the colored choir from Ceda.' Grove was present several nights and rendered melodies enjoyed by everyone. The religious interest of the church and community was greatly quickened by these services and it is hoped the good work begun by them will be car ried on. A. Death of Miss Margaret E. Eagle. Miss Margaret E. Eagle was horn in Cabarrus county, April 25, 1859, and died in Concord, at the home of her sis ter, Mrs. A. L. Goodman, on September 21, 1923, after an illness which lasted over three years. She was a patient, un complaining sufferer, and an earnest, faithful Christian. She was one of the charter members of the Second Presby terian Church, formerly known as the Cannonville Church —having been a res ident of Concord for over thirty years. She was an active church worker until illness laid her aside. The funeral was conducted by her pastor, Rev. W. C. Wauchope on Saturday, and interment was made in the old Presbyterian ceme tery. Beautiful floral tributes testified to the esteem in which the deceased was held. She leaves to mourn their loss two sisters and one brother. The sisters are Miss Jemima and Mrs. A. L. Goodman, both of Concord, and Mr. Thomas Eagle, of Rowan county. B. Library Report for Three Months. Borrowers 5292. New Borrowers 84. Visitors to Reading Room—Adults 1114; children 1065; total 2179.
