The Methodist Revival Closes
The revival services conducted by
Evangelists J. M. Bass land 0. W.
Stapleton at the Methodist Church
came to a close last night. The meet
ing is conceded by nearly all to be
the greatest revival ever held in
Carrollton.
The people were interested from
the begining and the attendance
taxed the seating capacity of the
church at every service, and often
many who arrived late could not be
seated and would stand throughout
the service.
During the meeting 147 have con
nected themselves with the differ
ent churches of the city, of the a-
bove number 125 joined by profes
sion of faith.
In taking leave of the congrega-
tionat last nights service Evangelists
Bass and Stapleton expressed their
sincere appreciation of their hospi
tality and kindness shown them by
the people during their stay in the
city.
We have never heard more help
ful advice to christains and those
just entering a christain life than
was so forcefully and eloquently
given by the pastor of the church
Rev. R. A. Edmonson.
In a meeting where God has made
His presence so manifestedly felt, as
in the one just closed, it is sure to be
a blessing to the community.

Mrs. Hitchcock Dead.
Mrs. Sidney Hitchcock, the wife
of the late Dr. W. L. Hitchcock
so long identified with the history
of our community, died very sud
denly Tuesdav May 23rd, at the
home of her mother, Mrs. Cook on
Stewart St.
Mrs. Hitchcock was a woman of
excellent traits of character, She
was a loyal wife, a wise mother, a
devoted daughter and sister, a faith
ful friend and good neighbor, and
above all a true and consecrated
Christian. She loved her church, her
bible, Gods children, and the services
of the sanctuary. She leaves two
daughters, an aged mother, two
sisters and a brother, besides a host
of friends and acquaintances who
will miss her unselfish acts of love
and kindness. We tender our sin-
cerest sympathies to the bereaved
family.
