Thjp Donal sonville Baptjst church into use Mr Bridges four Sundays in each month instead of two Sundays as they have been doing for the last few years. t Several members from the chur ch here rode down to Eldorendo Sunday to hear Rev Mr Grimes deliver a sermon as pastor of that church. The minister made 8 favorable-impression and it may be that he will accept an invitation Jo preach here in the near future, that alt the members may hear him The deacons have announced that there will be preaching ut the Baptist church ou the Ist Sunday in October, allhough the Liberal has not been informed who will do the preaching. All the members are urged to be present. Mr Milton Shingler “flew’' over from Donalsonville, and laud-<1 ou the baseball diamond in this city this afternoon. His aeroplane is a two passenger Curtiss.

Waltefs of Tailshaft see responded to the call reaching there before the angel of Death claimed her gentle spirit Mr. E. B. Nelson and his wife of Jersey I City N.J. were with his parents in Fiftone when his mother became so ill. [twill not be amiss to explain here that Mrs Nelson reared three sets of children; and they have all reached the adult age. Early’ in' lite she was left a wid ow with f air chiltlreu. Later she was msrrfed to Mr. J. P. Nelson whose iiiit wife had died leaving 92f XPJUHJ cUUdreu Then, td ilie couple, two eons were bom.

Anglin, of Brinson, aud one sister, Mrs. W. P. Ltewart, of Ashford, Ala., both . of whom attended the last sad rites. Ab the funeral procession enter ed uudtr the touch of Mrs. !>?. L Stapleton, “Naarer My God to Thee” was played as a prelude. The choir sang first, “Saved By Grace.” After psayer, a favorite song of the deceased, “Beautiful Isle Os riomewhere,” was sung. The last' sting was “Asleep In J.-sue.” The pall bparers were Dr. R. H. Saunders. Miesr, C E. Brooks, L. E. Calhoun, C. C. Lung. G. . Cook and -I. G P.iwell. At the ch'se of the service friends and relatives were allowed to take the “last look’’ nt the restful feat ures in calm repose. Then the hearse bearing the remains were followed to Hie cemetery here, where they were placed in a vault near to the grave of her beloved stepdaughter, Mrs. Newton, who died several years ago.
