Harborville February 9th, 1898:
The annual donation of the Harborville branch of the Berwick Methodist church took place here in the church on Thursday evening last. Not withstanding the bad roads and weather a large number met there and a goodly sum of $62 was raised for the pastor's salary.

Parker, called the meeting to order and a suitable programme consisting of music and recitation was presented.
