Rev. T. 3. Brown Has
Captured Lozington.
The Rev. T. S. Brown who filbdthe
pulpit in St. Stephen's Luther, n
church on Sunday morning for tl e
first time as pastor of the church, hcS
captured Lexington completely and
Lexington has captured Mr. Brown.
Those who heard the beloved divine
on Sunday were charmed and delighted
with his forceful sermon. The
minister took for his text a part of
the first verse of the sixth chapter of
Amos: "Woe to them that are at ea9e
in Zion." "Activity" was the minister's
theme, and he urged the members
of his congregation to be active
in all church affairs; that activity was
necessary in religious as well as in
business affairs. The discourse wa9
couched in beautiful language aud delivered
in a masterful style.
In anticipation of the coming of Mr.
Brown and his family the members of
the congregation gathered at the parsonage
on Monday evening and gave
the new pastor a severe pounding.
When they arrived on Tuesday they
were surprised to find every thing in
apple-pie order and ready for occupancy.
