The new church at Sunny Point was dedicated Sunday by Dr. NEIGHBORS, of Bristol. There was a large crowd present, and lots of nice dinner on the ground, and a good sermon again in the afternoon. It is a nice church and one that the neighborhood ought to be proud of.

Shannon THOMPSON and wife, of Princeton, spent from Saturday till Monday with his father and attended the dedication.

Mr. and Mrs. Tom DAVIS and little son, of Graham, were visiting homefolks Sunday.

Mrs. Charlie JARRELL had as her guests for dinner Monday, Mrs. Will STIMSON and two children. Mrs. Tom DAVIS and son, Mrs. Emma CARPENTER and daughter. Mrs. H.G. THOMPSON and Misses Nannie THOMPSON and Rose STIMSON.

People in the valley are busy making hay while the sun shines. The meadows are said to be good.

The hum of the threshing machine is heard in the land and while the wheat crops are few and far between what there is - is said to be good.

Horsepen - John A. JENNINGS passed from this life to his home in Heaven on the morning of the 4th at 1 am. He was a son of Robert and Pelina JENNINGS. He was buried in the Horsepen cemetery, there being many friends present at the bruial. He was only 6 years old, but was very bright and will be missed, not only by the family, but by his Sunday School class, and everyone else who knew him. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. MEADOWS, pastor of the church at Horsepen. Our sympathy goes out to the parents and grand parents.
