Seek information pertaining to an article that appeared in Springfield Herald, Effingham Co. Newspaper in 1909. I am placing it here, in an attempt to locate its origin. The article was submitted by a society called "MT. PILGRIM MISSIONARY SOCIETY." The article was submitted also to the Enterprize-Gazette and Effingham County New. My thoughts are that someone in surrounding areas may well remember the name, or can idenify this missionary society. Article consists of several resolutions pertaining to the death of a young man named George GROVERSTEIN, "a most ernest Christian worker, just entering manhood. He leaves a record that few of his age are capable of bearing:therefore it is resolved..."
Three committee members were listed. Henry GABLE, Lula BISHOP and Kate GRAY. Can anyone idenify the society, the place or any of the names? Thank you for your indulgence!
