        In the eastern part of the city, half way between the northern and southern part of the city, we have a most interesting and flourishing Sunday-school under the management of Rev. E. M. Parks and wife. Brother Parks so far has been laboring without compensation and has borne the actual expense of carrying on the school himself. This field is an inviting one, and should be at once taken hold of, and Brother Parks sustained in the consummation of an enterprise which he has so nobly begun. This school is also kept in a hired house.
