Primitive Baptist It may be interesting to many Primitive Baptist in Martin County where that body of Christians is strong to learn something of the statis'ics as complied by the recent census bureau. The number of communicants as reported is 102,• 311 witb 2.003 church edifices. These edifices will sest 679,190 and are valued at with an indebtedness ;• of only $16,207. There are only 16 parsonages and these are valued at $38,295. The number of ministers connected with the denomination is 1,500, ' and about 500 licentiates. Since the last census in 1890, the figures show a decrease of 13,960, with property increase of $83,259. Probably the decrease in organiza tiohs and members is dne to the fact that the colored organizations are reported separately now. ' A tjf ifi "Success 1.J.. .-• ac--., ... .
