Doddiscombsleigh: Harvest Thanksgiving Service was held in this parish on Thursday, Sept. 19. A sumptuous tea was provided for the labourers and their wives in the schoolroom, kindly lent by the Rector (Rev. J. Buckingham) whose kindness is universally known. The tables were presided over by the Misses Buckingham, Mrs. Pinsent, and the Misses Coldridge, to whom great credit is due. The room was prettily decorated, the work of the Misses Buckingham. At 7 a service was held in the barn (the church being under repair). The sermon was preached by the Rev. Manley (Vicar of Dawlish) who took for his text Psalm xxxiii, 5v, “The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.” The sermon was listened to with much attention. After the service all dispersed to their homes quite pleased with the pleasant gathering.
