The first Sunday in September has
long bean observed as the day ap¬
pointed for the annual singing, which
has been perpetuated for more than
twenty-five years in memory of
Thomas C. Andrews, at Tirtah.
Notwithstanding the unpleasant¬
ness of the day, a considerable num¬
ber were gathered last Sunday to
participate in the singing and enjoy¬
ment of the occasion. The ma sting
was called to order by Bro. Freeman,
and a motion was made to appoint
Bro. Ogletree to preeideaschairman.
After an appropriate song prayer
was offered by Bro. Griffin. Tbs efaair-
man appointed Brothers Freeman,
Bledsoe and Willis as a committee to
formulate the order of conducting
the tinging. Owing to the absence
of many of the prominent leaders,
Bro. Ogletree was chosen to lead the
music until noon. Miss Hester Wal-
ker presided at the organ, disp en s in g
sweet music. After songs of fine mu¬
sic for two hours a recess for one
hour was taken for dinner, when a
sumptuous repast was spread, and
all enjoyed a splendid dinner.
The house was called to order by
the chair, when Bro. Bledsoe led the
next lesson with Miss Hester still pre¬
tiding at organ. The next lesson was
led by Bro. Walker; the closing song
of this lesson was one of pathos and
soul stirring music. A short recess
was given, during which time Bros.
Brooks and Bledsoe, with Miss Staple-
ton at the organ, sang several beau¬
tiful songB, which was still an im¬
provement on the sweet music of the
day. The doting lesson was led by
Bro. Ogletree, that old prince among
the lovers of vocal music, with Miss
Bledsoe at the organ.
It is a source of much pleasure to
state that no disorderly conduct was
seen during the day. Among the old
attend (rate of the annual tinging, al¬
low us to state that Uncle Dick Manley
was present with his venerable better-
hali, and old Uncle Billy Smith, with
Beveralotheriold members. Long may
this time honored occasion be per
petuated, is the wish of ye scribe.
It slipped our memory to state at
the proper place, that Bro. Abe
Brooks led one lesson, who by th#
way is no gourd sawing singer.
There were many others whose val¬
uable services conduced much to the
success of the singing and enjoyment
of the occasion. W. T. G.
