TURIN.
In our Inst letter we Intended to
•ay that the fourth district meeting of
the Western Baptist Association
would be held with Hamah church,
near Palmetto, on Friday before the
fifth Sunday in July, and not that the
association proper would meet there.
Among our sick this week are Dr.
Overby, Mrs. Dr. Gay, Mrs. Lee Les
ter, Miss Emma Bussell, uud the in
fant, child of Mr. J. B. Shell, jr. Mrs.
Lester is reported seriously ill. Most
of the sickness is duo to bowel trouble.
"RIPPLES."
Permit me to make a slight correc
tion. In your locals last week you
stated^that the B. F. White memorial
singing would be held at Salem, etc.
It should have been the B. F. Wilson
memorial singing. The B. F. White
memorial singing will meet at Antioch,
near Banning, on the first Sunday and
Saturday before in July.
We had quite an interesting session
at Salem on Saturday and Sunday
last. There was a large delegation of
vocalists from Carroll and surround
ing counties, and every song seemed
to breathe a spirit of devotion nnd
praise to God. Go). W. D. Lovvorn,
one of Carroll’s wealthiest and best
citizens, was elected chairman of the
committee on arrangements. J. P.
Reese was unanimously elected clisiir-
man of the convention, but declined.
A motion was then made to elect
“Ripples,” and the vote was so spon
taneous and tumultuous that he could
not refuse—especially as it was an
honor in which The Herald and Ad
vertiser could share equally.
The crowd on Sunday was estimated
at ‘2,f)00. The whole face of the earth
seemed to bo covered with people,
and yet the order was perfect, botli
in and out of the house.
As the parting hand was being ex
tended many gave way to their feel
ings and shouted.
We would like to give a more ex
tended account of this glorious meet
ing, but we are suffering from the ef
fects of our homeward trip, which
wuh a weary and hot one, and we are
scarcely able to write this.
An interesting character met at the
convention whs Prof. Geo. Yates, who
is one of the finest bass singers in the
South. He has twenty-one brothers
and sisters—all living, all born in
Carroll county, and all having the
same parents.
The crop prospects in Carroll are
somewhat gloomy, with hundreds of
acres of cotton not yet up. Some
farmers have been harrowing their
cotton in order to get stands. The
wheat crop is good, but the oat crop
is a failure.
Mrs. J. P. Reese has been called to
the bedside of her only sister, Mrs.
W. It. Wilkinson, who lives near Pal
metto. She was stricken with paral
ysis on Sunday last, and as she is now
73 years of age, there is little hope of
her recovery. Ripples.

A Liberal Offer.
The Presbyterian College at Clin

every one. It offers matriculation

sum of $100. This offer is made to aa
many as can be accommodated in its

gives au opportunity to obtain at an
extremely low cost a thorough educa
tion.

HANDY.
We forgot in our last letter to tell
you that when we said that Mr. Jtile
Stallings, of Carroll county, was
planting a crop on his farm near St.
Cloud, in Heard county, we did not
intend to say ho hnd moved there, be
cause he still lives in Carroll. He
brought over some hands and plant
ed, and now that the crop iB up, has
come over again to work it out. After
that has been done he will return
home nnd attend to his farm in Car-
roll until it needs work again.
Another landmark has been re
moved from amongst us in the person
of Uncle Paschal Wood, as he was
familiarly called. This end event oc
curred on the 29th ult. at his home
near St. Cloud, in Heard county, af
ter a long confinement He was per
haps the oldest citizen in the county,
lacking only a few days of being 92
years of age. In hie younger dayB he
was very industrious and successful
in business, accumulating a compe
tency for old age. He lived to see
four generations of hie progeny. A
very large congregation heard the
funeral sermon, which was preached
by his pastor, Rev. F. J. Amis, who
spoke very tenderly of bis virtures
nnd usefulness, and his firm faith in
the blessed Master. After the funeral
all that was mortal was laid to rest by
the side of his companion, who pre
ceded him to the grave several years
ago. To the bereaved ones we ex
tend warmest sympathy.
Mrs. Carnes is still confined to her
bed, and we fear is really no better,
although some days she is a little
easier.
We are very dry, and a large sec
tion around us is distressingly so, al
though a few of the farmers in the
community of the old Cavender
homestead had very good rains and
a hail-storm Saturday that riddled
their crops right badly.
The usual services were held at
Elim Saturday and Sunday, although
thecongregation was not so large on
Sunday as is common for that church.
Mr. Thomas Juckson and Miss Dora
Bonner, of Carroll county, were mar
ried Sunday morning nud honored us
with their presence at church. They
catpo over to dine with Mr. Jackson’s
mother, Mrs. Donle Jackson. We
wish them a long, useful and happy
life.
Some of our neighbors have lost,
horses recently, Mr. Jerry Stephens
nnd Green Kite, colored, being among
the sufferers.
We heard ft gentlemnn say the
other day that lie had just seen the
worst ease of glanders he ever saw,
and said there was lots of glanders in
the country. We hope he is n.is-
taken. Vanrelt.

The Onward March
of Consumption is stopped short by
Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discov
ery. If you haven’t waited beyond
reason, there’s complete recovery
and cure. , Although by many be
lieved to be incurable, there is the
evidence of hundreds of living wit
nesses to the fact that, in all its ear
lier stages, consumption is a curable
disease. Not every case, but a large
percentage of caBes, and we believe
fully 98 per cent, are cured by Dr.
Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery,
even after the disease has progressed
so far as to induce repeated bleedings
from the lungs, severe lingering cough
with copious expectoration (including
tubercular matter) great loss of flesh
and extreme emaciation and weak
