To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And not- withstanding the fact that 1, 000 members were withdrawn at one time to form another church, the membership at the time the Rev. Alexan- der Bettis died was 2, 400. Today it is reputed to be more than 2, 700. JETER'S CHURCH. In 1870, ten miles southwest of Edgefield C. H. , there was a white Methodist church, in which, due to the small attendance, services 53 had ceased to be held. Seizing the opportun- ity it offered, Mr. Bettis purchased it, and or- ganized therein a Baptist church. ...By a series of revival efforts he greatly added to its mem- bership; so much that at the time of his death it was, and has since remained, one of the larg- est churches in the county. It has a member- ship of 1, 300 at present. SHAW'S CREEK CHURCH. In 1871 the Shaw's Creek Church was or- ganized with 1, 000 members. It came about this way: About five miles from Trenton, the Rev. Alexander Bettis frequently preached at a point, which they called Arbor's Stand, to the members of Mt. Canaan who lived in that section, and who, on account of the great dis- tance to Canaan, could not regularly attend ap- pointed worship there.
