Inscription. Turner Burnett (1850-1939) was one who helped haul the lumber to build the 30 x 60 Meeting House. Yank Telford gave the land for the meeting place on Corinth Road.

The 10" x 10" columns were overlaid with finished wood and stood in the middle of the meeting house, blocking the view of some seeing the preacher if sitting in certain places, as told by Carrie Sanders Harris Lannom.

Preserved by J. Stanley Wright (1921 - 2005) and nephew Tom Russell (1940 - )
