Hylton were present.  The voice of the church was heard and the following officers were elected: Secretary and correspondent, Elta Duncan; preacher,  Noah Duncan; deacon, Luther Duncan.  Noah Duncan was elected delegate to Annual Meeting. Bro. F. W. Dove was elected elder, with J. B. Hylton assistant.  We have about twenty-four members. One of our members, L. C. Akers, was anointed March 28 by the above elders.
