This Association operates in the extreme southeast portion of the
State. I have not been able to secure a full statistical table from
them.
They report thirty churches, with a membership of about 2,000. From a
mutilated copy of their minutes for 1892 the following names are given
as the ordained ministers of the body: J. Craddock, G. Christinar, J.
Stith, Thomas Slaughter, M. Spencer, E. P. Langston, J. Cotton, E.
Alford, T. Rollins, A. L. Koonce, J. C. Green, Wm. Carter, A. Powell,
J. Foston, J. Sampson, James Humphrey, G. R. Hall, R. C. Liferedge, and
A. Turner.
Part of the statistical table is torn away, but the following appears
as the list of their post offices: Cowarts, Otho, Crosby, Balkum,
Headland, Gordon, Shorterville, Halesburg, Zornville, Hardwicksburg,
Brackins, Choctawhatchie, Columbia, Lawrenceville, Abbeville, Fort
Gaines, Cottonwood, Dothan, Hilliardsville, Ashford. I give this list
because to know the post offices of the churches is better than to know
nothing at all. They are all right on temperance, and they say they
will license no man to preach who cannot read the New Testament.
