ho had brought to a glorious conclu
sion the labor which his Heavenly
Father had assigned to him, that he
had gone to his reward, and that his
place in the hearts of the thousands
who had been blessed by his life ought
never to be filled. They were to find
someone who was to carry on the
work and fulfill so far as possible the
ideals of the founder of the institu-
tion.
Immediately after Dr. Jacobs’ death
the management of the orphanage was
temporarily assumed by the local
board, .the chairman of which was Mr.
J. f F. Jacobs, Sr., Dr: Jacobs’ oldest
fon. As soon as possible, a meeting
of the trustees was held, and at this
meeting Rev. Wm. States Jacobs, D.
D.,-of Houston, Texas, was chosen as
his father’s successor. The call was
sent to him at once, and along with
this call went an appeal from the
elders and deacons of the First Pres
byterian church of Clinton, which his
father had served as pastor for forty-
seven years, asking that he accept the
position and pledging him their* c 0 r- ;tm durjn(t the 8ummcr and* winter

Perhaps it might be well here to
give for the benefit of those who
read this article some short account
of the man thus chosen to a place
of so great responsibility.
L. Ross Lynn was born on a farm
in Tipton county, Tennessee, 30 miles
north of Memphis, on March 7, 1s75«
In other words, he is just about as
old as the orphanage, itself. His par
ents, John Wilson Lynn and Margaret
Ellen Mcdain Lynn, were descendants
of Scotch-Irish and. Scotch who set
tled jn Chester county, S. C., and Wax-
haw, N. C. The grandparents on both
sides were among the earlier members
of what came to be a large and influ
ential Associate Reformed Presbyter
ian church by the name of Salem, neaif
Atoka, Tenn.
His parents were of the “catechism

Captain A. E. Moody, known all

“I would call it the^’King of

“Yes, sir, I tell the boys at the Fire

and management of the orphanage
continued in the hands of the local
board. These men who had been the
staunch supporters of Dr. Jacobs
through the important years which
saw the founding and the gradual de
velopment of the institution now wil
lingly did what they could to carry
on the work until it could be placed
in the hands of some man who could
devote his whole time to it. The feel
ing grew, however, as the months
went by, that this work, required the
full, time of some earnest, consecrated
| man, and while some progress was
Night Phone 205 or 24 |niade ( amon g other things, the con
tract for the Turner Dining Hall was
let and work begun on this dining
plant), still they felt'that for the.
good of the institution some strong
hand should be at the helm.
On June 11, 1918, the regular an
nua} meeting of the Board of Trustees
of Thomwell Orphanage was held in
the Nellie : Scott library, its usual place
of meeting. This was the first regu
lar nmeeting of the board from which
its founder had been absent, and a
spirit of sadness came over the mem
bers as they thought of the one who
was gona; and a spirit of solemnity
was also felt^as they realized the im
portance of the duty before them—the
selection of his successor.
Reports were heard as to what had
been done by the local board since
they had been in charge; other rou
tine- work was taken up and gotten
■ out of the way, and then came the
j.mQSf important task, possibly, % which
the board had ever faced.

detail all that fbok place between the
hours of 3 p. m., June 11, and 2 a.

Stomach Trouble* Relieved by
the Aid of Black-Draught
Telling how he obtained relief
from very disagreeable symptoms
of stomach trouble, Mr. Charles T.
Wintz, of R. F. D. 4, Huntington,
W. Va., made the following state
ment: •
“1 began taking Black-Draught
about fifteen years ago. 1 would
have gas on my stomach that ]ust
pressed and seemed to shorten my
breath, and I would have all kinds
of feeling. My head would ache
and 1 was in a very bad fix.
“1 had tied remedies that didn’t
seem to do me any good. 1 saw
Black-Draught advertised and sent
for it.-
“After taking a few doses, I knew
it was helping me. It seemed to
break up the gas, and the tight.
Moated feeling disappeared, and I
was like a new man. 1 would not
be' without Black - Draught. I can
eat anything 1 want to. If I get
dizziness in the head, Black-
Draught relieves it.”

seminary there in 1898. He worked
hard both in college and in seminary,
and was chosen faculty speaker upon
his graduation.. In the seminary he
was trained by such men as Webb,
Price, Alexander and Fogartie. In
1915, he was honored with the degree
of D. D.; from his Alma Mater.
He was ordained to the ministry
in the First church of Savannah, Ga.,
in November, 1898, and installed as
pastor of the church at Darien, Ga., in 1
December of that year. After a pleas
ant pastorate of three'years he took
charge of a home mission group in
Suwannee Presbytery, Fla., composed
of High Springs and MikeSVlllfc.
On November 14, 1901, he was mar
ried to Miss Edith Dewese, of Bright
on, Tenn. To him and his wife have
been born six children, five of whom
are now living; the eldest, a daugh
ter, having died- when only three
months old. JVLrs. Lynn has been a
true helper Th the churches and in the
orphanage. „
From 1903 to 1909, he was pastor
of the church at Palatka, Fla., going
from there to the Springfield church
of Jacksonville, only two months after
its organization. Tjiis was the most
important pastorale, and hi held it
for nine years until he gave up this
work to assume the presidency of the
orphanage. In these nine years the
