Correspondence from Cottage Church and Local Notices
Rev Murphy preached at the Cottage church last Sunday. Rev Mulholland will preach next Sunday with an unannounced subject. J P Jensen and others went to the state fair last Monday and returned on Wednesday. Jensen, treasurer of the GC A&.S, received a $20 bill from Rev Vanderwalker Sr for preaching. The CA S organized for social purposes and to raise funds for janitors lights and other church needs. A portion of sapper proceeds went to Rev Vanderwalker Sr, the son of the creditor. Vanderwalker owes nothing to the society. If others promised more compensation than given, they must answer individually. Date Riley has a superb broom-corn crop across forty five states. The Hermitage crop is good. Rev Whitmer preached his last sermon as pastor of the M P S last Sunday morning. Until conference later this month, his next assignment remains unknown. He served two years, a tenure that prevents return.
