H2346 Parsonage of a preacher in the remote districts, Brook Haven, Miss.
In order to gain a living, this preacher has to run and till a 60 acre
farm, and the result is pastoral visits are few and far between. The
people complain they see little of their preacher in their homes. His
influence amounts to practically nothing in the community.
