At tihe request of Rev. J. M. Fri- -j lay, the pastor of Newberry circuit, ' t was my pleasure to go on SundayI afternoon out to Ebenezer church, just three miles away from Newber- ( cy, where in other days stood the old] samp-meeting stand where many( soul-stirring Ge pel sermons were >reached' and no (noubt many souls !ound light in believing. On arrival we were met by Mr. An-( :ine Buzhardt. who kindly carried usi nto the church where the services of . ~e Sunday school were just closing. With quite a group of young people : help in the singing, Miss Lillie ligh presided at the organ and the t inging was v-ery good. It was very s ioticeable the number of young peo- a >le in the congregation. Among a hem we met Miss Laura Setzler, who t ias just egraduated from the Newber- -- y College, and quite a number of v thers, whose names we do not recall. C r. P. M. Hawkins is an active work-( r in Eberezer church, though his aembership is at another. Ie We preached as best we ~eould on n 'The proof of God's love," i at C he close had the satisfaction of -hear- n ng many kind words of approval. e 'Mrs. Alice Porter, who was along, y~ ranted to say some ''fine things" fa bout her preacher, but the Ebenezer n rowd stood up that Friday is as ~, :ood as any otiher day in the week a .nd their preacher just as eloquent s the pastor of Central or any other a hurch. C I am due many thanks to Mrs. n vary Langford, who in her fine turn- a Ut, took me and her sister. Mrs. o Jorter, for such a pleasant drive 'over the hills anA far away." It emains for me to say that Mr. Me uffie Sligh is an official and one of :he most active members in this dhrch. After the services he invited is to stop by the way at his house. It s truly a beautiful rural 'home, and ifter eating nice peaches and drink .ng refreshing water from their deep ell, we hurried home in the cool of :he evening. I would here insert the following 't .tie: The 3rd Quarterly Confer enee of the Newberry charge will ieet at Ebenezer, July 17 and 18. with preaclhing and the Confere nce session on Saturday and services att 11 o 'clock on Sunday.
