We observe with gratitude the growing sen- > tlment for temperace manifested In the banishment of the sale of liquors fiom a number of the counties ol our State and the movements provided to rid the evil from still olb ere. We believe these expressions are chiefly the result of the untiring labors of the church lu opposition to the liquor traffic. The dnty of the cuurcb regarding temper- < anoe Is plainly taught In the revealed word of God and the Discipline of the Methodist Epis- . oopal Church, South, tn the General Rules J and In Chapter V on Temperance. We urge that a strict and conscientious compliance be > observed. We think It well for us to again reaffirm the position of the church to be that we cannot give oar support to any method of control ' wblob permits the sale or use of Intoxicating liquors a* a beverage. We should encourage every agenoy available for the banishment of the great evil from our fair land. Reject fully submitted, , R. W. Humphries, Chairman. John I. Ray, Hecretarv. Abbeville, S.

Abbeville, 8. C.. Ma; 4th. 1007. 'o tbe Trustees of Ferguson and Wllilama College: Gentlemen: After operating our work moat Qooeaafully In oar preaent betiding and Dcallty for foarteeo years, It now beoomee ay dnty to Inform yon tbat It would aeem ^practicable to oontlnue tbe work longer In or preaent building and location. Plrat, we-have found after yeara of practl* al experience tbat tbe preaent building la x> am all to accommodate tbe large number f student*, wbo after these yeara have sarned to attend tbla acbool, especially aa ealdent boarding acbolara. It mlgbt be rgued tbat a belter policy would be to out own tbe attendance Jo what can be more omfortably cared for wltb our preaent jollities; but aucb an argument la unreasonble and impracticable, because tbe work la Tactically self-supporting and must neeceaarlly encourage tbe largest possible patron* ge. In the second plaoe, our present locality la lready conjeated beyond further endurance rltb tbe bope of aafety and auooeaa In tbe rork. Since this location was drat oocupled by ua rltb our oburoh and aohool tbe town baa rown most rapidly, especially In tbla lmmelate locality of our plant. Juat now, more ban at any otber time, tbere seems to be a mm. the storm oenter of wblob Is In the lm aedlate locality of the college. Buildings are olng op Id rapid aacoeulon almoet Id taikQg distance of tbe college; a city park will robably be located in a very snort time lgbtattbe college to complete which it,is lgbly probable that tbe very grounds on rblch tbe oollege stands #111 be needed and eroanded. It would, therefore, seem to be Msdom on tbe part of tbe tanstees to be aatlng about for a more desirable location ir tbe development of their moat important ohool and work. To make this school wbat it should be, we oghtto be located on the suburb* of tbe Ity, on oot less than twenty acres of laod, rbere we might have an opportunity to deelope tbe full industrial strength of tbe cbool. With more land alao, we oould more aslly make tbe school independent and elf supporting. It is also Important to note the tect, that hose who have built and are still building in be Immediate vicinity of the school are not olored people for whom tbis institution ? eslgned, but tbe leading white people of the Ity are seeking prominent bomea in tbis articular locality. Tbla demonstrates moat leariy tbat the time for action on tbe part f tbe trustees is fully at band. It is wltb be deepest pleasure and gratification tbat I m able to say, after nearly twenty-six years f labor in Abbeville for the education and raining of tbe colored people, I have found be white people at all times unlformaUy :lnd and sympathetic towards us and our rork. I am frank to say with all cheerfuliess and oondor, tbat it would be bard to ind In all tbe south a oommunlty where the rbite people have been more generally >atlent, tolerant and Indeed cooperative In ny laudable effort for the uplift of the olored people at tbelr door. It would tbere reseem doubly binding and important that uchalooatlon should be found for this intltution aa tbat not only tbe blgbeat- exdotations of Its founders may be reached, iot tbat ita facilities may be so enlarged hat thou ands may be (moulded into good Ddustrlous God-fearing citlaens.
