{ . The history .of the Winler\'illei
. Baptist church is almost the hig~ |
. tory of Winterville. |
' In the years long gone by Win- |
. terville wasg known as “Six Mile|
gfi Station,” Dbeing the first stop for |
fl wood and water by the train on |
. the Georgia . railroad on its trip |
g from Athens to Augusta., As time|
~ passed on, it grew gradyally into |
. A small village. |
i There was a desire for a place
© for religious worship. A building
| was erected by the citizens, at|
. that time, to be used by any and |
~ all evangelical denominations. |
~ For a time various religious ser
. vices were held. Later on as the
} population of the village increusedi
.. pnd the members of the Methodist |
~ church predominated, a Methodist
. church was organized. \
i | The name of the place was
~ changed from “Six Mile smtiun“!
.to the more dignified name of
. "Wintersville.” So designated
L from three substantial German
~ eitizens, John Winter, Henry Win
. ter and Christopher Winter, who
ha.d come to America to make |
. their home. They settled here and
. left their influence and dom:eud«;
| ants with us 'till this day. !
Built Own Church f
. For many years, the Baptists
. had no organic activities in llw%
. willage but were more or less ac-|
i,,rtlve in adjoining communities. In
. the year 1885, a great revival oc
»= curred in the Moore's Grove Bup»1
. «tist church, Jjust three miles
More than two score metin
| bers were added to this church.
i A majority of these lived in and
i around Winterville. This resulted
.in the organization of the Winter
. wville Baptist church with 44 mem
. Dbers, October 13, 1886.. ‘These
gfigi;members came from Moore's
. Grove, Cloud's Creek, Crawford
and Corinth churches.
. The present membership is more
| than 250, Three hundred and
. fifty-one members have come into
the churech by baptism. Also,

Veterans Of All Wars Will

.Annual' Reunion Near!

| gest Crowd in History
' —— |
i GAINESVILLE—AII plans have!
]heen completed tor the greatest
{ soldiers’ reunion ever held in north
lGem‘gia. Redwine hag held many
excellent reunions, but the celebra
tion of the 29th reunion will eclipse
that of all others. Veterans and
visitors are coming from all parts
of Georgia and from other states.
The greatest array of speakers in
the history of the reunion has been
provided, and there will be more
music and singing than ever be
fore. Everything possible has
been done to make the day a suc
| cess and one to -be long remem
‘ bered.
I History of Redwine
Redwine is one of the oldest,
‘most famous, and most sacred
shrineg of the South. Long before
the outbreak of the War Between
the States, the campground at Red
wine was known and revered by
| thousands, and people came from
| far and near to worship. It was
| Company D, Tth Georgia Regiment,
C. 8. A, however, that made Red
wine famous for all time.
These gallant men mobilized at
the campground and marched away
to the fields of Virginia to join
the renowned Colquitt Brigade.
They took a prominent part in
some of the fiercests battles of the
war and won glory for themsefs
and for the South. Many gave their
lives for the cause, but a number
was spared to return to their
homes to do their share in rebuild
ing the ruined South to a greater
and better land than they had ever}
dreamed.
Throughout the years Redwine
has advanced steadily. ‘There have
been years when she was pros
!perous, and there have been years
|of struggle. The old arbor was
| destroyed several years after the
{war. It was later rebuilt, but many
‘years ago it was destroyed again
| and not rebuilt. It is of great in
lterest, therefore, that the arbor‘
has again been rebuilt and the old
campground restored while two!
veterans of Company D, 27th Geor-‘
gia Regiment yet live. The new
| arbor is larger and more beautiful
|than the others, and it is a perm
anent structure, being the largest
and most modern in the state of
IGeorgia. * Redwine, situated in a
beautiful grove, is an ideal cite for
Ia campground, and the campmeet
ing will be resumed in the near
future,
Reunion Organized
It is natural for men who have
fought together for a common
cause to learn to love and respect
one another, and they look forward
to meeting their comrades at every
opportunity. Twenty-nine years
ago the survivors of Company D,
27th Georgia Regiment decided to
organize an annual reunion; and,
of course, the appropriate place for
the reunion wag Redwine. This
reunion was at first local and was
attended only by two or three hun
dred people. It quickly attracted
attention, however, and Confederate
veterans of other companies were
invited.
Three years ago the reunion was
opeéned to the veterans of all wars,
and thousands of people met to
pay them honor. Over 15000 peo
ple attended the reunion last year,
and a much greater attendance is
expected this year. This reunion
is the biggest in Georgia and the
only reunion of its kind in the en
tire South. The most prominent
speakers of Georga are always
provided, and the celebration has
become a meeting place for friends
from all parts of the state,
Many Delegations Coming
| “The veterang of the Confederate
Soldiers’ Home, of Atlanta, as well
as '‘a number of old heroes of other
sections, will meet with our own
|Uncle ‘Whsh Gaines and Uncle Jiml
| Little, -the two survivors of Com
pany D, 27th Georgia Regiment.f
Every honor possible will be shown
to these gallant men who fought
for Lee and Jackson in the dark
days of the great conflict. There
will be many veterans of the Span
ish-American War, and hundreds
of veterans of the World War will‘
be present. Every veteran of war
is urged to attend this reunion, andl
every person is invited #to meet]
with them on the old campground.}
It is the purpose of Redwine church
to keep thig reunion going through
the years, and every effort will be
’made to make it greater and bet-|
ter.

'The first act after the parade of

Gold was called in from poor an

In nineteen hundred ang thirty

A changed condition we here dig

Not a starving person could b

Joy and confidence every whergl

The forgotten man, Roosevelt didn’
forget;
Schools were re-opened; road con

Millions and millions, previous]
unemployed,
Had more prosperity than they'
ever enjoyed.
In the year nineteen hundred an(
thirty-four
Politiciang said “He can't pay an

But the next year four billion wen
set aside
And the selfish politician sighs

There never had been a big thin

That some politician ‘didn't try t
upset,
“The country has gone to th
dogs,” they say,
“Where will he ever get the fund
to repay?”
We have fought wars at the c

Our boys have lain down the
lives by the millions—
All of this has wnever bankrupte

So why against Roosevelt shoul
we raise a hand?
Our people were hungry, th
wolf at the door,
Our people were starving by tl

Reliving this condition is f
