>iv~-'^r r . ' ~v rv 9 ' i i The Press and Banner ABBEVILLE, S. C. jyPubllihed every Wednesday at 82 a year la advance. Wednesday, Nov. 21,1894. Another Nineteenth Man Gone. The members of Company Q, 19th S. C. V., will be sorry to bear that Dick Gantt Is dead. He was a Jolly good fellow and had the good will of all the compauy. He had some knowledge of medicine, and tbis knowledge tbe surgeons utilized In time of battle. Of course tbe wounded bad to be taken to places of safety, where tbey could receive attention. Tbe regularly commissioned surgeons needed a field assistant, and called on Dr. Qantt who performed tbe dangerous duty of gathering up tbe wounded, and be never gave a thought as to bis own safety. He acted bis part Intelligently and faithfully. He examined all wounds, and when immediate attention was necessary be gave it burrledly> and tben sent tbe wounded to the rear to be more carefully treated. Because of clrcumslanoes be may bave been said to do double duty. In times of peace be was a private soldier, doing fatigue and guard duty as any other enlisted man. In the exciting times of bat~ Oillk/VH# Ko hnnnro onH UO| UC WOO DUlgWUf nmuuuv vuv ajwMwaw muu emolumenu ot the office, Incurring all tbe dangers of tbe battle-field, without tbe security from danger wbicb Is necessarily vouchsafed to tbe regularly commissioned surgeons. Dr. Qantt was a kind and generouB man. with no semblance of malice toward any man. Of him the Piedmont Headlight says: Dr. Richard 0. Gantt, only brother to tbe * editor of this paper, died at bis home in Haynesville, Louisiana, last week. Dr. Oantt was born in Greenville county, S. C., in 1887. At the outbreak of tbe late war be Joined Captain Azson's company, 1st regiment of South Carolina Volunteers, under command of Co). Maxey Gregg, and was engaged in tbe several enoountere before tbe first battle of Manassas. When bis term of enlistment expired be joined the 19th South Carolina regiment, and remained in the western army until tbe olose of the war. Dr. Grantt was in the same company with Mr. Hugh Wilson, editor of tbe Abbeville Press and Banner. He was a medical student when tbe war broke out, ?nd did not graduate until after the surrender, but acted as field surgeon in his oompany. His health was wrecked by exposure In camp, and be was also wounded while superintending a corps of little bearers. After the war Doctor Gantt located out West, where he confined bimslef to surgery practioe throughout Several States. He was a consistent member of the Baptist church and leaves a large fam ily behind him. Doctor Gantt was as brave a man as ever lived and knew not tbe meaning of the word fear. He was a considerate husband and fother, and honored and respected Hv all vhn kn?D him. HIS FAREWELL SERMON. Dr. Bays Bids Adieu to His Brethren ?Some Notable Facta About His Work and His Congregation. During the last two years which Dr. Bays has baa charge of the Methodist cburcb at Abbeville, be and bis congregation have accomplished a great work. New life ana greater energy seem to bave taken possession of preacher and people, and the temporal and spiritual work of the church has bad phenomlnal success. Under Dr.Bays's ministration the parsonage was reballt, and now we presume that no preaeber In the Conference lives In a better or more elegant borne than de does. The church building, which was comparatively new, is now undergoing enlargement and reconstruction. The work of making the church more commodious, and the expense beautifying its architectural appearance, will foot up several thousand dollars. Some men who promised five dollars at the beginning bave given fifty, one bundred, or two bundred dollars. .And so it Is that the oongregation has done their great work without making appeals to outslden.. But it is a fact some voluntary subscriptions nave Deen made. Some estimate of the zeal and liberality ol this congregation may be made from tbe fact that, lor all purposes, over <7,000 has been raised dnrlng tbe Conference year. In tbe congregation are no rich men, but tbe congregation la made np of earnest, zealous members, wbo prove tbeir laitb by tbeir works, and pnt down tbeir dollars to promote tbe objects wbicb are near tbeir hearts. Daring tbe pastorate of Dr. Bays 132 accessions have been made to tbe roll of membership?showing in that time a net gain of 91. Dr. Bays has not yet finished bin work ai Abbeville, and, we believe, it Is tbe earnest wish of *11 his congregation tbat be may be sent back to them next year. He bas tbe love and oonfldenoe of bis people, as Is evidenced by his wonderlul and unprecedented success. Without their love and affection Dr. Bays could have done but little, no matter what his ability or his Christian zeal, and U he bad not proved himself true he could not have so far gained tbeir love and afiection as to lndcce them to make tbe sacrifices whlob they have made to build up and beatify their church property. Dr. Bays preached his farewell sermon last Sunday, and without referring to biB personal remarks to his brethren, we irl ve brief notes of bis sermon as follows: Text. Acts second chapter and part of the the 12tn verse"What meanelb this." The supernatural in religion bas nearly always been unduly magnified; "What meanr eth this." From these words I wish to make a deduction for some remarks on the harmony Jbetween revealed religion and the inherent want* of mankind. Tbe sermon will not be textual or exegetical, bat rather practical and topical. Tbe perfect harmony between tbe supernatural in religion and the appeals of reason is seen : 1. In the fiact that temporal and eternal interest* never clash. Thenlgbest interests of man for time and eternity constitute a perfect unity in harmony. For instance, reason tells us that Intemperance and profligacy lead to sorrow, shame ajid poverty, and are therefore derogatory to the best Interests of man In this life; and then tbe word of God tells us that?"no drunkard hath eternal life abiding in him." It follows than that what is best for man in this life is that what responds to bis interests for tbe life whioh 1b to come. 2. Tbe harmony appears again in the fact that the supernatural In religion Is not a protest against the appeals of common sense or reason. Reason Is not the foe of religion, but one of its allies. The gospel does not ask us to grant ready concession to that whicb Is unreasonable, unpbllosophlc, and unnatural. "For religion," said Watson. "Is an appeal to nature for the developement of Its highest powers." 3, Then again, the unity between religion and natural claims is apparent when we remember that the gospel Is not an arbitrary system, founded upon the mere will of another, but Is an appeal or response to the Inherent wants of mankind. It responds only to wants which the moBt sceptical must recognize. The sufferings and death of Jesus, beloved, were notdeclgned to exhibit the divine compassion. A mere exhibition of love whether hnman or divine, for the sake of exhibition, means nothing. God never exhibits himself merely to assure us of his love. The gospel is a real substantial, positive force and life, whose design is to respond to the deep longings and necessities of our race. It is what the world needs; otherwise the death of Jesus Christ was an heartless piece of cruelty?all for the empty exhibition of a sentiment. The world needs the gospel, else it had never been offered to the world. 4. Finally, this harmony appears when we oome to reflect upon the fact that Jesus Christ eave his divine sanction to the value and dignity of human nature. The gospel Is no blind mysticism. It was not designed to revolutionize human nature, but tosanotlfy it. JeseuB himself became a human being thus patting upon Human nature tbe stamp or tbe divine appreciation. And at the same time patting himself In the closest sympathy with oar sufferings and sorrows. Ever pleading, ever entreating with lnterceedlng prayers and divine pledgee of pardon and meroy, and will continue to intercede until the last poor sinner standing upon tbe "tottering wreck of the rained shall shout salvation lu the blood of the lamb." Gone Up Higher. News and Courier. Mr. P. D. Mazyck. who for a number of years has been chief clerk in tbe general passenger department of the South Carolina and George Railroad, has been transferred to tbe Line street ticket office as tbe successor of Mr. C.
