Union Camp Ground is con* vemeutly located in a beautiful 20 acre lot in the northwest cor ner of Carroll County, and was organized in 1883 by Revs. F. H. M. Henderson, Jno. G. Caldwell. Jno. M. Thurman G. A. McDaniel, Jno. W. Andersou, and Jno. Morris, all of whom have passed over the silent river. The preachers at campmeeting this year are Rev. Charles B.

Bounds, ot Washington, Ga. It is safely estimated that 3,500 people were on the camp ground Sunday, coming in i>uo mobiles, surreys,buggies,wagons and on foot. At 8 o’clock Sunday morning Dr. Bounds preached to the largest congregation that we ever saw at an eight o’clock service. At 11 o’clock Presi* dent McDaniel delivered a won derful sermon on the new birth and at the close of the service much interest was manifested and there were many petitions for prayer as well as professions ot faith. The 3 o’clock iservice was conducted by Rev. T. J. Pearce, the large crowd being deeply impressed and more or derly than is usual at the after noon service. Rev. J. R. Ander son preached a searching sen moo on Sunday night and the after service was the scene of much religious enthusiasm, many old time shouts being heard. It was a great day and one that will long be remembered. The music was directed by J L. Patterson, ot Sunny Side, and the choir did some good work. On Wednesday night the last srevice was held, and now the camp ground will be dese t;d until next year. J.P.
