In Memorlam In sad but loving remembrance oi my dear husband, Oliver F. Blades who departed this life June 6, 1010 Gone from earth, yes. gone forever Tear dimmed eyes shall gaze in vain Wo shall hear his voice, Oh, never Never more on earth again. A little grief, shock severe, To part with one we love so dear; Our loss is great, we'll not complain, But trust in God to meet again. His busy hands are folded, His work on earth is done, His troubles all are ended, His heavenly crown is won.

Concord in Caroline, historic old camp ground of the Methodist Episcopal Church, was swept by fire of undetermined origin on Thursday afternoon, razing every stracturc in the enclosure. Denton fire company was called and, arriving promptly, found the whole camp ablaze nnd burning fiercely.

Soon Federalsburjj and Ridgcly companies arrived, but due to lack of water little service could be rendered. While the con- lagration was at its height flying 1 embers set fire to the home of Mr. Lawrence Vickery, about a half mile away. There being no ndcquntu supply of water available, it was urncd to the ground. At this fire, lowcvcr, Ridgcly and Federalsburg engines pumped some water out of driven wells on the premises.

At one time during the camp ground blazo lope was despaired of for the church and surrounding property, as the heat intense nnd everything underfoot so dry. Very small embers would start a blaze many yards away through the woods. Members of the fire companies did good service in stamping out these scattered fires and confining the damage to the immediate clearing. Bids had just been received and contracts awarded for the running of the camp this year and tenters were already beginning to look their tents over in preparation for the August meeting. This historic spot filled a place in hearts and lives of Carolincans never to be replaced.

A gathering Iace for worshippers, a political stamping ground and a visiting place of widespread fame has passed for the time being from existence. Even ihintgh it may be rebuilt, tho same itmospherc can never pervade that stately grove as has always hovered over Concord's annual religious festivals. A landmark has been wiped way, fond memory only remains. Concord was given its name about 1804 when trustees 'appointed by a society that was holding meetings at Abraham Collins' house (near Potter's Mill Pond) bought for $15 one and one-twentieth acres for the site of a meeting house to be called Concord. rcvious to this date no name had cen given to this region about the nterscction of the two roads, one ending from Greensboro to Hunting Creek and the other from Potter's Landing to llnrshyhopo Bridge.

The present church, built near the site of he first one, was erected shortly before the Civil War by a building committee made up of five men, eter Sullivan, Gooteo Stevens, Wingate Neal, William M. A. Lidcn nnd filghman Nuttle. The first camp meeting at Concord wns held in 1857 under the joint pastorate of Revs. W.

W. Warner and Daniel George. The present pastor of the Concord Circuit, Rev. C. H.

Atkins, serves also the churches at Bloomery and Chestnut Grove. Subscribe for The Journal and ge all the news all the time. Goldsboro. Mr. and Mrs.
