From the Arst organization Scion church these changes hai been going on steadily. From tin to time the Reapor has com au cut down one and anothor--thoi who are humbly walking in the moi quiet sphores, and thoso who a] filling positions of responsibilii and prominence. None are exemp But little more than four years ac this church mourned tile death t one of its most faithful elders, M~ James McCreight ; and now it called upon again to part with or who has borne rule over it for mo: than a quarter of a century. Elder James R. Aiken dlied Ju 10th, 1877. He might truthfully I called a ron of this church. Wh< but an infant, in tihe year 1813, 1 was here dedicated to th:o Lord: the ordinance of baptism. When muau, in the prime of life, on the 121 of May, 1850, he here professed .h faith in Jesus Christ, having bet led thereunto under the preachir Iof the late R~ev. Daniel Baker. C the 2d of October following, la than five months from the time < his union with the church, he wa unamimously chosen an elder1 bear rule wvith his brethren avi this congregation ; and on Satbb)a morning, November 10th, lhe wi solemnly set apart and ordained1 that office. The Session then 0oi .sisted of the following persone Iev. M. D. Fraser, Moderator' -; au lElders James McCroighit, Wmn. M< Croight, Alex. W. Yongue and Ja IR. Aiken. [n May, 1851, Mr. Aikt was elected Clterk of the Sessio which office lhe continued to fill uni the time of his death. For nearly twenty-seven years h1 the deceased gone in and out befoi this people, as an elder~, duriu Wyhich time he has seen marn changes in this church, and has fo lowed to the grave every one wlh was a -member of the Session wht he entered it. His place was nevi causolessly vacant in the sanotuar or in the prayer-meeting.; his inteo est for the success and welfare this church never flagged ; and bi time and his means woere cheerful given to aid and support the gosp at home and abroad. He was man of fine men ta4 enidowmonts*; graduate of South Carolina Colleg whien under the presidency of D Cooper ; and a 'college-mate,-and ii timato friend and 'admirer of D) TJhoDnwell. He was a fluent spea1 or and wieldled the p en of a reat ~writer ; and was cal led by his folio' citIzens -to Sntay positions of .in and responsibility, having osevers times represented -his Distriet intil Legislature of the ~tite' . enWdai aside~ . oin the -adeia duties of life, by the diseMae wykk ultimately resulted in hi aemh,..~ mained to the last cheerful and hope ful, never murnuring or ropining at his long-protractod sufferings, but always bearing thoi with patience 10 and resignation. His mind was never cloaded with doubts or uncer taintios as to the future, but to the Slast ho expressed a firm faith in Jesus Christ as his Redeemer. When asked whether he ever regret f ted having become a Christian, he answered : "1O, no ! I only regret that I did not becomo one sooner, and that I have not lived a better life." His end was peaceful. o "His hope was built on'nothing less Than Jesus' blood and righteousness." t As a token of our regard for his memory, we, the Session of Scion y Church, do hereby adopt the follow .. ing resolutions : Resolved, 1. That in the death of Elder James R. Aiken, we are again reminded of the fact that doath is not far from any one of us, and that 1, we should -be also ready, for we , know not the day or the hour when tw we inay be called hence. 2. That it becomes us all to strive to attain that samo constant devotion to the Church of Clhrist, which ever .o characterized our departed brother. d 3. That we tender to his bereaved family our sincere sympathy and fervent prayers, that they may find the promises which God has made to the claildren of the faithful ful n filled in them. 4. That a copy of this minuto and these resolutions bo furnished to .s the family of the deceased, and that the same be published in the Southern Presbyterian. 5. That a blank page in our book of 1 records be suitably inscribed to his 's memory. Von Tux NEWS AND IIxaALD. n The Summer of Long Ago. --o n BY LUL.Al.
