Baptist church, who in addition to an
active ministry at home, has held
three protracted meetings this year,
and delivered three commencement
addresses, is now in demand for ser
vice in Summer Sunday School Con

this week. He has felt himself over
worked for some weeks and may have

labor of love, but the complimentary
invitations are appreciated by his
church and many friends out of it
at Douglas and elsewhere.
