The prayer meetings still continue with interest at the Chapel every Thursday night. Elder Price, ot Cedar county, will preach at the above place on Satur- day night. He will be employed to preach during the next year at that place. To break the monotonv of the Christmas tree, the Sunday school at the Chapel concluded to creel an arch on Christmas eve.
