Editor Recorder—The camp
meeting was a success, religiously
speaking; twenty were added to the
church. Tbo rules were eomowhat
strict, to make the social element
subordinate to religious influences. .
Several that were on “pleasure
bent” did not have a “broad time." ;
The meetlngjclosed with prayer at ;

end by ten o'clock nearly every
one had left the grounds. Fire
In some way got out and before It
could be obeckcd burned down
every tent on tho ground except
Rev. R. F. Williamson’s. The stand
was saved by the efforts of thoio |
present, though it] caught ou Ore I
several times. It will cost about I
twelve hundred dollars to replace !
the tents as there were nineteen of [
them burned, but it will be built
up again. Hlnoo our peoplo havo i
found out tlioy can build railroads
the building of a few tents is a cer
