20th Century Opens
With January, 1901, and about that time
The Thanksgiving dinner, which was
participated in by the members and
friends of the M. E. church, and which
was given in Fenton’s building on Third
St., was an entire success in every way.
It was attended by a large number of the
members and friends of the church,
there being as many as two hundted
meals served altogether, for in addition
to the dinner, supper was also furnished
in the evening, and this was followed by
a general meeting to which all were in-
vited, and which took the place of the
usual prayer meeting, which is held in
the church. It was amusing to note the
astonishment that was expressed by
some, who had come in for dinner and
also for supper and had expected to pay
for the same, and who were almost in
doubt whether to eat or not when they
found that everything was without
charge. Special thanks are due from
the church to all who helped to make
the day the success it was Words of
praise were heard on every side by those
who attended, and who felt that the day
was one long to be remembered.
