GAFFNEY AND HER PEOPLE.
The Manner in which we Impressed a
Recent Visitor.
(Correspondence of The Ledger.)
Blacksburg. S. C., May 24th.—As
the people of Gaffney have just finish*
<d a handsome Presbyterian church,
the church appointed the ni Sabbath
in May as the time, and the Bev. Dr. j
Thornwell as the Minister to officiate i
I at the dedication of the church to j
j the service to Almighty God, in the
I dispensation of the gospel of Christ. ,
j Vorr correspondent was privileged ,
■ to participate in the solemn services i
of the oevasion, much to his edifica* j
tion and enjoyment. Tlie building I
itself was completed in the most
modern style of architecture. In
fact, it is one of the handsomest
churches we have seen any where, in
Columbia or any of tpe Piedmont
towns along this belt of counties.
The success of this daring enterprise
by such a small body of Christians,
numbering only about ~AJ members,
is largely due to the working *iuali-
ties of their pastor, Bro. Robertson.
Only u few years ago, he took charge
of this church, with scarcely a score
of members, and unwilling to prom
ise more than ijiloO for pastor’s sala- i °f
; sex of any other locality. We also
I enjoyed the hospitality of -Mr. Wurd-
1 law . at his lovely home on Frederick
i street. He is engaged as clerk or
1 book-keeper, in the Cotton Manufnc-
j turing Company of Gaffney. He is a
son of Dr. Wardlaw, of Abbeville,
i and intimately connected with the
honored familv of that name.
We visited the Limestone Spring
j Female College, while on a visit to
Gaffney. It is now presided ever by
Professor Mack, and is doing a grand
work for the girls of Spartanburg,
and other counties. The College
grounds proper, embraces one of tne
most picturesque localities to be found
: in tile Piedmont belt, where nature
has done so much in the way of ru-
j mantic scenery.with pure water, and
a climate unsurpassed fur health and
! comfort. We were shown through
j the magnificent College building by
; one ot Anderson County's most
; charming ladies. .Miss Olive Brown.

! brethren Robertson and Croat, pas;
tors of their respective charges, unit-
! ed hy their presence and prayers,
with the Presbyterians. Such broth-
1 erly love is worthy of emulation. In
fact the people of Gaffney all pull to-
; get her whenever anything is propos-
j ed for their advancement, either reli-
| giously, socially, or in h business ca-
] pacity. And while they are thus
united, yet they do not exhibit any
selfishness towards rival towns, but
sincerely desire the prosperity ef
such and all.
On Monday night Rev. Mr. Adams
came to time, and took up the preach
ing services, and carried them on
twice a day ’till Wednesday night.
The style of preaching of the two
brethren spoken of, is very- much
alike—plain, practical and spiritual.
Bro. Adams, while he did not ap
prove the plan of calling up people
to the anxious seat, and such like
methods, yet did not criticise them,
but thought that after faithfully
preaching the gospel that then the
Holy 'Spirit was the only agency to
apply and sanctifying, while the pro
position alone, j« “♦•rict'y true, ay a:;
abstract proposition, yet God does ‘
choose to bless the methods alluded |
tout times, as He sees fit, and while !
others may adopt them and be bless- j
ed so with those who do not use !
them, are blessed also, so as Christ \
said to his disciples once after r*.- -
turning from a preaching tour, to !
report to their .Son and Master, that 1
they found one casting out devils in
thy name, and we forbid him, Christ
said forbid him not, for those who
are not against us. are for us.
Now it only remains for me to rt-
j turn thanks to the people of Gaffney
1 for their hospitality to your corres
pondent, while a guest in their beau
tiful town. Among others of equal
hospitality, I must mention the names
of Rev. Mr. Robertson, of the 1'res-
byterian church, and our old Dickens
friend and brother, Newton Folger,
ticket agent on the Southern road,
and their families. I would not be
doing justice to my own feelings, if 1
were not to mention our newly-made
friend, young Mr. Reden, who is con
nected with the Reden family of
Greenville, with whom 1 have been
acquainted for many years. He kind
ly asked me to take dinner with him
at his boarding house at Mr. and
Mrs. Lipscomb's, where we met with
two of my old gentlemen friends, Mr.
Butler and Mr. Gantt, the former
we met in Columbia, and the latter
whom i met at his father's. Mr. Lar
ry Gantt, of Spartanburg These
young men are promising lawyer's.
Mr. Butler was a candidate in the
last primary, and was beaten, but he
is now a candidate for matrimony,
and lie stands a fair chance of being
elected. Not only was my visit to
Mr. Lipscomb’s rewarded with a
magnificent dinner, (for it took us
two days to digest it,) but we met
with some charming ladies whose ac
quaintance constitutes an oasis in
my lift. The Judies of Gaffney will
compare favorably for beauty of per-

The pleasure of my visit to Gaffney
was greatly enhanced by meeting
with the editor and printers of Tm;
Lkugku. They are making an excel
lent paper, and all are printers. Be
ing an oid printer ourselves, of course
our interview was of the pleasantest
kind. We met there an old printer
by the name of James Raines, who is
nearly three score and ten, and still
works at the ease, and can set from
.> to ff00<»ein? per day, Mr. DeCarap,
the editor, is also a printer, who is
an apt and ready writer with his pen,
and can set type with proficiency.
His score of local contributors are
usually good, and adds much to the
interest of the paper. To witnes,
these men at work so complacently-
especially the old man, almost pere
suaded us to wish to return even in
old age. T. A. li.
