dust as we began to think Christianity
was retfng a hold in this valley, us we
were holding two Sunday Schools every
Sunday, we were surprised to llud last
Sunday thut the devil, or some of nis
nips, had been so very close to our place
ol Worship Saturday night that things
were prelly badly scorched, and we
could still smell the brimstone Sunday
when we went to hold S. S. Now that
is loo bad to thnk we have uny one so
low and degraded ns to do the very niuull
trick that was done. As ol course it
was some body look a cun of kerosene,
saturated several articles in the school
house in three different places and set
fire to tlieni and supposedly left thinking
the fire would do the rest, but providence
was at work also, ho their scheme failed
and the lire burned a while then went out
but not until it had done some damage,
but not much just euough to show
what was intended. The culprits were
tracked for about a half a mile from the
school house. Now this in a shame and
disgrace to th;s community, and 1 think
should be followed and the parlies con
cerned be pun'shed to the lull er.tent of
the law, us so many times such tilings
are laid io boys, (or which 1 have a few),
when pei Imps the boys never thought of
doing such a thing. But fortunately
this Onio it was evident the parly or
parties came prepared for business, as
they brought the o l in a fruit can and
forgot to take it back with them. "Mur
