Kymulga, Ala.—A very interesting temperance meeting is reported. Sixty persons were present. The exercises consisted of singing, addresses and selections by the members of the Society. Rev. H. S. De Forest, of Talladega, visited the Sunday-school and preached for the people.
Childersburg, Ala.—Rev. Alfred Jones writes: “My work is in a lively condition. I have a full house. My people seem to study the Bible with greater interest than they ever have before. Some come to my church who did not like it at first.”
Anniston, Ala.—Rev. P. J. McEntosh has been the victim of a very pleasant “April Fool.” On returning from Conference he was invited into the chapel, and found, to his great surprise, that an excellent stand for the choir had been erected, with banisters and place for books. The work had been done with the proceeds of a surprise party given while he was away.
THE FREEDMEN.
