FREE METHODIST CHURCH

The Free Methodist Sunday School, after having been closed for several months for enlargement and improvements, costing several hundred pounds, was re-opened on Sunday. The preacher was Mr J Bettison, of Alfreton, whose sermons were very suitable to the occasion. Both afternoon and evening special singing was given by the choir, under the conductorship of Mr. J B Cooper. Mr. Norman Evans presided at the organ. The re-opening services were continued on Wednesday, when a public tea was followed by a meeting, over which Mr. J Tomlinson, of South Normanton, architect of the work, presided. The Rev. J W Nield and other gentlemen addressed the meeting. Solos were given by Miss Gree, of Blackwell, and Mr. C A Cooper gave a cornet solo. The choir contributed selections.
