WELSH BAPTIST CHURCH.
Tho Pioneer Association of iho Lacks,
wanna Volley la Reorganised.
Some of the earlier settlers of Carbon
dale entertained llaptlst sentiments.
.Squire Yarrington once stated that the
first house built was in, the year 1S24.
In the summer of 1S30, a company of
Welsh emigrants, attracted chiefly by
the coal mining interests, settled in the
place. anion whom were four regular
Haptlsts, professing close communion.
Mr. dames liowen was a minister, his
brother John was a deacon, and their
wives were members embracing the
elements of a gospel church and hold
ing the tenets or Huptists. Their faith
was not abandoned or zeal abated by
leaving home und crossing the ocean,
but fur from the fatherland and dear
friends, ainung strungers speaking an
other language, they did not hang their
harps on the willow, they clung the
more tenaciously to their language and
their cherished creed und destructive
principles. And where there Is avill
there Is u way, they Hoon devised and
employed means to promote their spir
itual Interests and propogate their cher
ished sentiments. Meetings for prayer
mid preuchlng were commenced at the
liome of Keacon ilouen. on the West
tlle of Main street, on the site now oc
cupied by the store of l'utrlck McDon
ald. For a time their congregutlon was
comparatively small, consisting only
ot a few Welsh families. It was not
long, however, before some of their
.American neighbors of different de
nominations, met with them from time
to I line, utti acted chlcily by the "Songs
of Jilon" In a strange land, in a strange
tongue, but Willi the feeling und pathos
for which the Welsh nation is noted.
Ofttiines the substance of the services
Were given ill lOngllsh. for the hem-tit
Olid pleasure of that portion of the aud
ience nimble to understand the Welsh
.language. Their members were aug
mented from time to time by fresh emi
grants from Wales, of whom u lair por
tion were regular Baptists.
These Welsh members united wifh
the (Ireenlleld church in tin- lilakely
district, u ml soon became a prosperous
brunch of that body, holding covenant
meetings and i enjoying occasional
I'l-eaching. ICuily in ls:c: they were
regularly dismissed and organized as
the First llaptlst church of Curbondale
with for'y-three constituent members.
They worshipped now In the old school
house on the site of the present struc
ture, and curly In the spring of ix-is
the senool home gave way to the pres
ent structure. The public worship wus
ciueny couuucteil In the Welsh hin
guuge, and ut this time it wus decided
by the American brethren holding Hap
tlst views (but who were excluded from
congenial privileges and bad to attend
meetings ot the other denominations)
to raise up the llaptlst standard end
rally to Its support and defense. The
Herean Hnptlst church was recognized
und consisted of seven members; now
it is a most nourishing church and the
pustor anil people are doing excellent
work for the Master. The Hev. Puniel
K. Kowen appears to have been the
first tegular pastor of the Welsh church
and on his taking sliurge of the llerean
church Just: proved a lie v. Mr. Will
iams was called to the tmstorate und
ministered until 1411 when he hud a cull
to a church at I'tlca. The next pastor
was a llev. W. Kvans, who continued
fHithfully to preach the Word. Then
the Hev. D. W. Morris preached for
some time to them in conjunction with
his pastorate at Taylor.
' Acocrdlng to the testimony of some
of the old members who are faithful to
this day, the most nourishing time ex
perienced by the church was between
the years of 184S and N".:i. The con
gregations were large and the church
did much good. About six years ago,
the congregation having dwindled
tlown, although a few stood unllinch
ingly for their principles, the remain
ing trustees, K W. Davis nud Morgan
Thomas, handed the deeds of the church
to the trustees of the Welsh associa
tion of Pennsylvania. A few months
ngo some of the old members, kindled
with love to their language and their
principles, determined to make an at
tempt to reopen the edifice and collect
the Welsh friends together. They con
milted with the association committee
nnd today their labors were rewarded
by the assembling of Invited pastors of
the valley and the committee to re-dedi-rute
the sanctuary and give the tight
naiul of fellowship to those that wished
to Join. The first meeting was held to
day at .1 o'clock, the Hev. W. S. Jones,
fif Hyde Park, having read a portion of
the Scriptures and fervently Invoked
the blessing of Cod upon the church
and the purport of their meeting to
gether. Mr. Henry P. Davis, of Scran
ton, occcupled the chair and addressed
the assembly with feeling nnd advised
the young church to live penceuble und
look for the Hpirlt of truth for their
guidance. Then he called unon the
Hev. W. Thomas, of I'lttston, to ex
tend the right hand of fellowship to the
members about to form the church. A
regular letter of dismissal was read
from the Mayfleld church and the
folhiwlng are the constituent members-

ARCHIBALD
On Saturday evening at 8 o'clock a
meeting will be held in the borough
building for the purpose of forming a
local building und loan association. At
present there Is nothing of the kind here
and whatever business of that charac
ter is done here Is monopolized by for
eign corporations. It is believed that
enough stock can be placed here In
town to make such an association prof
itable, and those who hold that opinion
will make an effort to prove that what
they suy Is true.

due to disease, or an impov.
erished condition of the blood,
are a source of annoyance to the
medical fraternity. While con
tinually growing deeper and
larger the circle of diseased flesh
surrounding them is all the time
extending, closing up the ducts
through which replenishment
of tissue should come. For such
troubles physicians everywhere
are praising the results obtained
by the use of
Bovinine
In the first place the system
needs re-invigorating, new flesh
tissue should be formed, new
and pure blood created, in fact, a
new and well nourished body
where room for disease does not
exist. Food is the thing, and
Bovinine, that greatest concen
tration of the vitalizing elements
of lean beef, is the most fitting
nourishment of all for speedy
results. Then applied externally
it nourishes by absorption,
where the disease is most appar
ent, thus striking the enemy on
all sides. Ask any Druggist
