I went for a group mountain bike ride at Clear Springs park in Meadville, MS this morning. It was misty and got colder by the hour.

After that I headed up to Montrose for a look around. I found the church and took a few photos. Although there were several civil war graves, there was only one person in the graveyard with Gray as a middle name, suggesting a familial connection.

I found the railroad tracks. Now all I need to know is how far down to go and what the boundary markers are.

No one in the country is Presbyterian any more. They held high educational standards. Presbyterians adopted the most progressive social doctrines. The Baptist congregation across the street is thriving
