TO ONE
AND ALL
A Crowded Church Heard His Sermon
Sunday Night.
Tho capacity of tho Limestone Pres
byterian church was taxed to its ut
most Sunday night, the occasion be- ;
ing tho last sermon of tho retiring
pastor, Rev. W. R. Potter. Revs. Dr. i
A. M. Simms, of the First Baptist i
church, and .1. M. Steadman, of the!
Buford Street Methodist church, occu- i
pied chairs on the pulpit with Mr. 1
Potter. Mr. Potter prefaced his ser
mon with a few personal remarks <in
which he took occasion to thank the
entire community for the uniform
courtesies extended to himself and i
family during their stay in Gaffney.!
He then took his text from Philippians I
4:89, and proceeded to preach a soul-
strring sermon. It was pronounced by ]
many to be the best since his resi
dence in Gaffney. At the conclusion
of the sermon Dr. Simms and Mr. 1
Steadman spoke. Both gentlemen,
spoke feelingly and U was plain that
they suppressed their emotions with
difficulty. Mr. Potter responded in |
kind, thanking them for their kindly
expressions and assuring them that
he reciprocated the same. Mrs. West-
rope then sang with good effect “Some j
day we will understand.” Many eyes '
were dimmed with tears during the
course of the service, and. all in all,
it was a fitting climax to a worthy
pastorate.
Tonight a reception will be tender
ed Mr. Potter and family by the la
dies of tin* congregation in the Sunday
school room. A short program has
been arranged and refreshments will j
be served.
The following letter was sent to
Rev. W. It. Potter by the members of
his congregation:
Dear Brother Potter:—In accepting
your resignation as pastor of our!
church, we realize that we have sus
tained a great loss, and it is only our
realization of the fact that you are
going to a much larger field of useful
ness, that reconciles us to concent at
all to the severance of the pastoral
relation. Your labors in this field
have been most beneficial to the!
Master’s cause, and your stay in our i
midst, most pleasant to us, and it is
with the most profound regret that |
we realize the necessity of parting
from you and your most excellent
family.
We wish for you in your now field
abundant success in furthering the
Master’s cause, assuring you that the
best wishes and highest regard of 5
the members of Limestone Presby-1
terlan church will accompany yon. |
Fraternally yours,
S. F. Parrott,
J. D. Goudelock,
W. M. Webster.
Mr. Potter will continue to reside
in Gaffney for the present at. least,
and he anticipates visiting Gaffney in
his new work.
Mr. Potter deserves all the good
things that have been said of him.
No more conscientious man ever lived'
ami the effect of his pastorate will re
main long after his departure.

Mayor’s Court.
Mayor Gaffnoy had a small sized
crowd of “Sunday sinners” before him
yesterday morning.
The first case called was that of
Olin Martin, a colored boy, who had
been pulled for some “disorderly con
duct” on the streets Saturday night—
said disorderly conduct consisting of
flogging his little sister who was on
tho streets late, and who refused to
return to her place of abode at his
command. The child, it seems, is an
orphan, and had come out on the
streets because she had no congenial
company at the home of a relative
with whom she was living. Olin is
a chronic offender, having quite a han
kering for mischief and devilment;
and after a lecture on the custom,
to which he has been addicted, (with
numerous others of his ilk) of loafing
on the streets at night, the mayor tax-
hJm $1.00 for the authority he had
assumed over his sister.
The next one on docket was Alf
Smith, colored, who had imhlded more
“tiger juice” than he could navigate
with, and had to be taken in tow by
an officer. Alf was required to fork
over $2.50 in cash or live days in la
bor, and when he seemed to regret
that he did not have the amount call
ed for, Chief Lockhart came to his
aid by reminding him that there was
no “shortage” about the days.
Mayor Gaffney says he is very much
in favor of a curfew law in Gaffne),
in order to put a stop to so many
children “running loose” on the streets
at night; and it would be a good
thing, especially Tor the children.
