This Association composed of thirty churches, has just closed a very interesting session held with the church at Roopville, all the churches were represented and re ports show that nearly all of them have been prospered during the As- sociational year just closed. Fiaancial reports also indicate an advance in the work for which the Association stands viz: Missions, Sunday schools and Christian Edu cation. The session was favored with the presence of a number of brethren representing these interests, Dr. G. A. Nunnally of our Educational board, J. G. Hunt for Bessie Tift College, W. F. Brown, Pres. Southern Female College with others repre senting important denominational interests. The introduction sermon by J. W. McLeod was much enjoyed by an attentive audience. The annual missionary sermon by Jesse M. Dodd, was a gem in point of general information upon the great subject of our Christian obligations, and delivered with a measure of spiritual devotion that carried its power of gospel truths to the hearts of his congregation. The meeting was presided over by Rev. H. H. Connell, and was harmonious in all its works and the entertainment of the body of the church most excellent. The next session was appointed to meet with the Whitesburg church Oct. 20th 1911. W.W. Roop Sec’y. An excellent and most enjoyable program. The work of Mr. Bright was delightful.
