She didn't know how they had gotten that name, but that was the name most commonly used for it. She didn't attend it, as it was called a Holy Roller Church, and they spoke in tongues. Most of the people who attended there did not live in the community, riding horseback for miles to reach it. She says the Church was between Foster Chapel and Long Hollow Baptist Church.
