situation, and weekly you will find

p- ' .On April the 6th Richab j, with Mrs. J
Richard and all-o fthe little Richards, e
h, went to a Sunday School rally at ?
Sharon church. down in Granville c
, "X County-. This was a [treat day, the f

era, "and the speaking was about such ft
as you generally bjar on such oocas- 1
ions. The chief attraction being the
singing class from Peace Chapel. It
was a-rare treat indeed to hear them
sing, and the audience kept wanting
to hear more. Richard thought when

W *. N.. crwd, but here as elsewhere, you can
; always count on the women to do
their part, for there was the greate
i . eat plenty of the very nicest kinds of
victuals. If Richard ever runs for office
you may expect to see him mighty
handy among the ladies, for they can
now furnish both the rations and the
votes. What more could a mafi ask
fe for? ? '
i Yesterday, May 7th, all of the Richk
