We, as Christian women of Barnwell, meeting together for the first time as citizens of our town and nation, in order to express oigr protest against conditions of evil prevailing in our midst, and especially taking the form of breaking the righteous laws of our nation, do earnestly offer the following resolutions: 1. We offer unto our Heavenly Father the privileges and re sponsibilities that we as women of America, have recently re ceived, asking that He may so guide us as that we may be greatly used of Him for the driving out of evil and / the upbuilding of righteousness, particularly in our own town and county. 2. We deplore the existence in our town of open and flagrant* violation of laws of our state and nation, especially our national. Prohibition law and the laws against gambling. 3.

He had ’ been 'p consistent member df the Baptist Church for many years and was high ly regarded by every one. Besides his wife he leaves three daughters and many friends to mourn for him. It was with deep and sincere regret that the Williston Baptist Church gave up its consecrated and beloved pastor, the Rev. F. W. Garnett, when he left for his new home in Bartley- ville, Okla., Monday, Sept, 27th. The church prospered under his leader ship, more than 100 members being added to it during his stay here.

Rev. James F. Buist began his use ful and very acceptable ministry in Barnwell District as a quite young man, about 1868 or 1&59: He became pastor of Mt. Olivet, was progressive in spirit, vilry zealous, and a fine speaker. In 1860 he led in a good meeting of days, at the close of which in September, he baptized a number of young people, myself, just 13 yeers old, among them. He joined the C. 8. A.

He was intellectual, bright, quick, witty, and jocular. When quite young he was superinten dent of a Sunday school at Mt Olivet I heard his fluent, "maiden speech” at this church. When the War of ’61-'65 came, he joined Col. Hagood’s Regt. as 1st Lt. In Capt W t H. Dun can's company. From this, early in 1862 he became Captain •of Co. * i G. f Lamar’s Regt, of Artillery.
