the first and third; as he serves
the Donalsonville church on the J
second and fourth Sundays.
The Members of’’the Baptist I
church regretted this; as they bad • I
for years, used the second and h
fourth Sundays that, the preach
ing services would not conflict with 1
those of the -Methodist church ‘
here, which held its preaching 1
services on the first and third Sun- I
days.
The Methodist members are
planning to have their pastor for 1
next year preach at the M. E. <
church every Sunday in the month I
so it will be just as well under -
those circumstances to have Mr, t
Bridges preach at the Baptist
Church on the first and third Sun
days. 1
Let a full house greet the min- <
ister when he comes over to i
preach. I
