On one night the past week a goodly number of our citizens met at the church, the subject of the occasion was to have a pounding for the preacher. It proved to be a pleasant occasion and a great surprise to Rev. Aylmore and wife. The gifts were not limited to one pound, but a number of pounds, consisting of sugar, bags of flour, canned fruit, canned goods, in fact a nice line groceries and around $50 in cash, which goes to show that our townspeople are very liberal toward our new preacher.
