Marshall stated that he had some books at home that he would donate to the May House to sell.

Sam stated that he was still working on getting three prices for the pamphlets we want to get prepared for distribution regarding the May House. He is also still working on getting someone to paint the windows before inclement weather sets in. Mr. Saunders gave him the name of A. J. McCoy who was now painting some and Sam stated that he would contact him if the man he had in mind could not do the work.

Delmas stated that he had also come into possession of a shovel and poker that he would donate to the May House. He will bring these to the next meeting.

The Jenny Wiley Festival will be held on October 9, 10 and 11.
