ARTICLE ON A CHURCH MEETING 1890 (handwritten) ----There was an assemblage of old people at the M. E. parsonage yesterday and the cheerful faces of so many hale septugenarians and octogenarians as were seen there is a sight that is rarely met with. The company enjoyed a bounteous dinner and passed the afternoon hours pleasantly in relating their early religious experience and in listening to the music and song furnished by the Sunday School orchestra and choir. The following were present:
Rebecca M. Beard Jesse Brogan Mary McColm Clara Beedle Isaac Coover M. C. Proudfit Eliza Brinkley Wm. Davidson Elizabeth Reed Sophia Coe A. Davidson Catherine Russell Sarah Coover W. A. Drury Nancy Washburn Rachael Davidson Wm. Furnas Rebecca Wright Dorothy Drury F. Gilmore Susan Rowland A. M. Drury Mary Hart John Beard Sarah Furnas Polly Hetticker J. B. Hawley Elizabeth Hubbard C.
