MR. ROBERTSONTO RESIGN.
The Firat HaptUt Church Will Have to
■Seek a New Fast or.
A surprise was sprung upon the
congregation of the First Baptist
church last Sabbath morning when
Pastor Robertson made the an
nouncement that this would be his
last year in Gaffney. No one antici
pated this move on the part of Mr.
Robertson. He has the most flour
ishing church in Gaffney, has been
an indefatigable worker, a good citi
zen and a zealous pastor and it„wa8
thought by almost everybody that
he was perfectly satisfied. Mr.
Robertson simply announced that he
would in due time present his resig
nation to the church and that this
would positively be bis last year in
Gaffney.
When seen by a Ledger reporter on
the subject Mr. Robertson said:
“My resignation will in noway inter
fere with the erection of the new
church, In Jfact it has no connec
tion with it. I shall use my best en
deavors to have the church built in
time for the convention and believe
it will be done.”
Mr. Robertson has made many
friends while in Gaffney, and we will
all regret to give him up; and can
assure the people who are fortunate
enough to secure his services that
they will get one of the hardest work
ers that is to-day engaged in the
Muster’s cause.
liroke Jail.
Last Saturday night some time
after 11 o’clock, some one entered the
jail through one of the back windows
that a bar had been been broken out
of by some prisoners who escaped
some time last year, and broke the
locks off the iron cells, and liberated
Arthur Green, white, who was in jail
for stealing a check from City Treas
urer Ross, and Ed. Camp, colored,
for breaking into a house. Owing to
the heavy rains of Saturday night,
any attempt to pursue with dogs, or
otherwise, was rendered useless.
Sheriff Thomas, however, put the
proper sections on notice, and it is
hoped that the prisoners will be re
captured.

his resigning.
