Danville Virginia July 25 The religious colony that moved to Smith River Valley two years ago to live by the Bible remains with its original ten families and has seen no new arrivals. They farm fruit and tomatoes for canning but agricultural progress is limited as several settlers lack farming experience while others came from different careers. The group shows no haste for a big change and expecting more members in time.
