COLUMBUS ASSOCIATION.
The Baptist Churches, Composing the
Columbus Association, in Annu¬
al Convention.
From Our Special Correspondent.
The Columbus Baptist Associa r
tion convened with Bethel church, in
Muscogee county Leaving Chipley
Tuesday morning I was impressed
with the iuea that a trip over the
Georgia Midland would enhance the
pleasure of my trip. Therefore, the
young vocalist, C. W. H., who ac
companied me, turned the head
his steed in the direction of Shiloh.
VVe intersected the mountainous road
leading to the Valley at King’s Gap,
opened up by enterprising citizens
Chipley, and along which only the
gray squirrel skips,the audacious fox a
burrowing place finds,and the screech
owl a sate retreat. Along this route
for several miles the eye finds
ing to rest upon except the work
nature’s God—the calm blue sky
above the distant expanse, gigantic
oaks, rippling streams, and giant
rocks, as innumerable as the sands
of the sea shore. Th* journey was
made without anything of special in
terest transpiring, and ere we reach
ed the place of our destination the
sun was casting his gentler rays over
and around DowdeU’s Peak, a sira
pie and wonderful reminder of Him
who created the world in six days
and saw that it was good, and
good.
Arriving at Shiloh we had
time to survey this enterprising little
hamlet on the Midland. Here
found old and new friends who
1
our stay pleasant and exhilarating.
Especially are we indebted to the
bounded hospitality ot our
friend, Dixie Harris, who is
vedly popular, enjoying his share
the trade centering here.
Wednesday I boarded the
shortly after 10 o’clock, with quite
I number of other delegates
| friends. Meeting with an ex
leyite, Mr. T. G., time
| swiftly. Rapidly we passed mile
posti and stations—Waverly
Ellerslie, Midland, Flat Rock. All
these places bore traces of a
and industrious people,
happy and contented.
Arriving at the last named station,
a walk of 200 yards brought us
the delightful shades surrounding
Bethel church. Here the
Trom the various churches throughout
j Harris, Talbot, Muscogee, Meriweth .
er, Stewart and Chattahoochee ccun
ties had assembled, with quite a
number besides. The inlioductory
i sermon was being preached by Dr.
J. S. Searcy, which was interesting
and instructive. This concluded the
good ladies ot the community placed

on a table 140 feet long viands of
various kinds and finest quality, suf¬
ficient to feed twice the number that
gathered around to refresh them
selves. It is perhaps unnecessary to
state that sixteen basket-fulls—not
fragments—were taken up after all
had bountifully partaken of this de
licious repast.
It was my good fortune, along with
other delegates, to fall into the hands
of that wholesouled and
dating gentleman, Mr. J. M.
and his excellent lady, who spared
no pains to make our stay delightful
ly pleasant.
Without going into details, this
session was harmonious throughout,
much good being accomplished.
Having an opportunity presented to
return by private conveyance with a
one legged delegate, I decided he
could make no better time than 1, a
two legged delegate, so I accepted,
and we amicably pursued our way to
gether, passing through
over the mountain, home again.
Long will we with grateful memory
remember Bethel—house of
and Bethel’s. B. F. H.
