A Christmas Offering.
The Sunday-school of the church in Marietta, Ga.--Rev. E. J.
Penney, pastor--has sent forward a Christmas offering of four
dollars, accompanied by the following letter, written by one of the
little scholars. One boy picked cotton to earn his dime. One girl
darned stockings for a gentleman to raise her part. We are much
pleased with the gratitude expressed for the aid furnished by this
Association in securing the new church:
MARIETTA, GA., Dec. 9, 1880.
Mr. Penny, dear sir, we have a nice little church in which we
have a splendid Sabbath school, and we have 5 classes my sister
is one of the teachers, myself and three little brothers attend
the Sunday school and like it very much and we have had three
very nice concerts which we injoyd very much, and we have a very
nice pastor and we all love him very much because he is so good
and kind, and we turn many thanks to that kind and benevolent
socitey who assisted us in building our nice little church and we
as Sunday school scolars wishes to mak that socitey a christmas
presant which will be the sum of 4 dollars and we would like to
do more but we are young and weak but we hope by the help of the
lord to be strong some day.
from your little friend
ANNIE E. PORTER.

MISS G. HUNTER, SAVANNAH.
We are receiving letters from our Northern friends inquiring if we
are asleep in Savannah. We repudiate the idea--we are fully wide
awake, although our work has not been represented recently in the
MISSIONARY.
