Glad Tidings.
The M. E. Glad tidings camp meeting
which closed last evening was in every
way successful and very gratifying.
The congregations were large, the
preachers visiting were sensible, godly
men, not riding a liobby, but pleaching
the simple gospel of Christ. They were
Revs Edward Gethings, pastor at Tur
ner, H. B. Elworthy, pastor at Lebanon,
Lew Doner, pastor at Viola and D. A.
Walters, presiding elder, Salem. The
singing was magnificent. The young
people of Glad Tidings cannot be ex
celled (modesty forbids me to say more).
The writer being weary from the ten
davs camp meeting decided upon a one
days recuperation at Wilhoit Spring six
miles from the Glad Tidings camp
grounds. There being no public con
veyance the writer succeeded in borrow
a horse from M. Lebo. Riding a hone
was once one of my most beautiful ac
complishments but not having straddled
a horse for four or five years I found it a
lost art. Mr. Lebo's children cal'ed ti.e
horse "Bob," but not being well ac
quainted with him the writer called him
' Robert." Robert was a white horse
and that made me think of a song often
heard at the time of the unpleasantnets
between the North and the South. The
song run somewhat as follows:
Abe Lincoln rides a white horse,
Jeff Davis rides a mule:
Abe Lincoln is a wise man,
Jeff Davis is a
