PASSES RESOLUTIONS
WOMEN OF BARNWELL PROTEST AGAINST PREVAILING
EVIL CONDITIONS.
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. That a committee be appointed to visit the Sheriff of ear
county and the Mayor and Councilman of oar town earnestly pro
be— conditions and orging that they be not long*
to prevail.

Wlllleten. October 0.—Mr. B. P.
Drummond paseed away at his home
here September 30th after an illness
of five or six months. He waa 71
years and wy a* native < of
Barnwell County. 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.
There was a grand demonstration
when he preached hi* last —noon i

congenial, and alike fond of Jokes,

After Dr. Williams death Dr. Rice
‘seemed lonesome even in company,
and once told me that he could not
get over the decease of his cong—iial
friend, and missed him sorely. Dr.
Rice was pastor in Society Hill, S.

of other churches. He was an

me, Aug. 1870, at the request of Mr.
Olivet Church. Both were well
known and cordially loved and hon
ored.
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. Army, Nov. 1861, 17th

Rev. Fred J. Sanders was educated
by his noble brother, “Rev. Tom Sen

Barnwell C. H. 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
