NOTES ON THE ASSOCIATION.
The reports from the churches re
vealed splendid gains in member
shin and in collections, both for be
nevolences and for home purposes.
i i j
The Association is composed oi
sixty-two churches, situated in Mar
tin, Beaufort, Wilson, Washington,
Pitt, Edgecombe and Halifax coun
ties and is the youngest in the State,
having been formed out of the Tar
River Association six years ago.
There were more than two hun
dred in attendance as representa
tives of the various churches. The
attendance of our town people at all
the sessions of the Association was
exceptionally large.
The committee on hospitality, of
which Mr. C. F. Burroughs was
chairman, did their work with such
facility, ease and efficiency as to
I give satisfaction and delight.
The older members of the Associ
ation and the moderator declared
this to be the most successful ses
sion in the history of the body, and
the various delegates declared
Scotland Neck to be one of the most
delightful communities they ever
visited.
