MAYOR KLETNE9.
Tihe peoplo have Intrusted the muvi.
cipal gov rnment of Newberry for the
next term to Mr. Otto Klettner. lie
will be supported in his'adninistration
by a board of aldermen who have iad
experience inl the management of town
affairs. Mr. Klettner is a thorough
busincss man and fully competent to
discharge the duties of the ollice to
which he has be( a chosen by the votes
of his follow citizens. We believe that
he will not be the tool of any man or
faction but that he will stand square
with the dignity of the olice and give
the town a wise and progressive admin
istration on a broad guage, though not
extravagant scale.
As we said some time ago this is a
critical point in the history of our town
and much depends upon the head of
the municipal government. Ilio cant ad
vance the town by wise and progressive
l3adershIp or he can retard Its progress
by a niggardly economy and inaction.
We trust and believe that Mayor Klett
nor will stand equal to the occasion and
without fear or favor will do those
things which will be for the best int,er
ests of the whole city. In such a course
lie shall have the support and encour
agement and aid of The Herald and
News.
COLUMIA LETTER.
Columbia, December 3.-The ways of
Cupid are strange and past finding out.
Iliuman ken and all the mind raLders
and the palmists and fortune tollers are
sometimes baflled and cannot tell what
the little god of love is going to do or
has in store for us. And yet when we
follow his lead we generally come out
all right. The peoplo love a romance
and all romances have something to do
with love and love has something to (10
with them. The romances which we
read in novels geneially wind up with
a wedding party and when the weaver of
the tale marries his heroine to the hero
all is weil and the book Is beautiful. In
f.ct I believe it is true that all the world
loves a lover and why should it not?
I am not going to write a romance,
for I am not. gifted in that direction,
and yet there is at tinge of the romantic
connected with the story I am about to
tell.
D During the past summer a bright and
charming and beautiful younrfg wom n
from the blue grass region of Kentucky
decided that sho would like to seo some
th ing of Tennessee, Georgia, South Car
olina, North Carolina and Virginia and
in company with a lady friend of the
family who was traveling through these
States, Miss Mary Irvine Davis of
Paris, Ky., the county seat of Bourbon
county, camne to South Carolina and to
Columbia, S. C., a stanger in a strange
land, little dreaming that she would
so soon make it'her home. And yet she
made friends wherever sie Went. iIero
in Columbia she not Col. no. i. rost,,
Assistant Adjutant General, and it was
not long until he found himself very
much interested in the blue grass region
of Kentucky. The young lady returns
home and Col. Frost makes a visit and
soon invitations are receivedl announc
lug a wedding. We cannot tell what
little things may change the wholo
caurse of our~ lives.
Thanksgiving (lay OneO year ago
neither one of these young people had
the remotest idea of the existence of
the other. This Thanksgiving (lay they
are sp)eeding away on the train as bride
and groom from her happy Kentucky
home to cast her lot with us In a new
home down in the Pal motto state. May
their lives be long and happy, is the
wish of many friends int the two States.
On Monday morning last Col. Jn ro
D. Frost left Columbia accomuranied by
his brother, Mr. E. HI. Frost, Mr. P. Ii.
MecMaster, Mr. John Bell aind E. 11.
Aull for Paris, Ky, where on WVednes
day evening at 8 o'clock ho was to wed
Miss Mary Irvine Davis, the daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Davis. The trip
was a long one and uneventful. Trho
wveather hero was a little brisk and
bracing but had been warm. En route
to Asheville the party saw that the
mountaIns were covered with snow and
were reminded that it, was winter.
There had been a snow storm on Sun
day night and snow was on the groundl
all the way to Paris. They arrived in
Paris at 6 o'clock Tuesday morning,
having been on the road 21 hours.
* *
Paris is an oldt town. In fact about
as old or older than the 8'ate. It is
the county seat of Bourbon County.
which is noted the world over, not only
for its blue grass and fine horses and
pretty women, but for its fine old Bour
bon whiskey, and yet the wedding party
never saw a man under the lnlluence
of the latter the two days its members
were in the city. The young men from
tile Palmetto State, I think, were very
deeply impressed with the beauty of
the women and I concur in the conelu
sion.
* *
On Tuesday evening an elegant course
dinner was served to the party and a
fe w relatives and friends at the palatial
rsidence of Hion.. Jno. T. inton, ao
uncle of the bride, and it 'vaa very much
enjoyed. Mr.' Hinton is a member of
tbe Kentucky legislature, and is also a
large furniture dealer. in fact all the
people met by members of the wedding
panty were clever and kind and attens
tlve, aid thie visit was made very pleas
ant.

whom Ie is a great admirer. Ile knew
Gen. Ifampton in I Mississippi, and said
they had been on miany a chase togeth
er. lie was very attentivo to us and
added mnch to the pleasuro of the
trip.
''lho county court was in session and
the party had the pleasure of meetomg
.1udg0 ,as. I". Cantrell of Georgetown,
Ky., and Solicitor Robert 11. Franklin
of Frankfort who are knowi to news
p)per reaeIrs aIs theOI Judge and Prose
cuting Attorney who tricd the cases
against the murderers of (oobel. The
party was invited by the Judge to call
on him, N hich was done, anld all spent
a couple of hour11s very pleasanitly.
.1 udge Cantrell resembles the late Dr.
Talley of Colimbia, very much in per
sonal appearance. and is a man of
strong personality. Mir. Franklin stands
high in his profession and is an inter
tainimg talker, anid has the ireputation
of being tihe best story-telier inl Ken
tucky--and in constquence of this and
his natural ability is a good caipaigi
ell.
The wedding took place oi Wednes
day evening in the 1'resby terian church
and tihe following account of this happy
event was written at my request by one
of the young ladies of Paris:
"One of tle most beautiful weddings
of the season took place at the Second
'resbyterian church, I l'aris, Ky., Wed
nesday evening, November 28th, when
Miss Mary Irvine Davis, the beautiful
and accomliisIed daughter of Mr. and
irs. W. L. Davis, became the wife of
Col. Jlno. 1). Frost, of Columbia, S. C.
'l'romnptly at 8 o'clock the bridal
party entered the church to the sweet
strains of Lohengrin's wedding mnarch.
First came the four ushers, M r. John .1.
Williams of Paris, Mi. Oscar Yates of
Louisville, Mlr. John 1ello of South C'aro
lina, and Col. E. II. Aull of South Caro
lina.
"Then camo the first bridesmaid,
Aliss Lizzette Bslanton lickson of Paris,
accompanied by NI I. ltobt. Davis,
groomiman, of I.ouisville. Following
then came Miss Mary Irvine of Dan
ville, Ky., with Iir. Albert Ilintoi of
Paris. MIiss Lucy Johnson of Paris.
with Mr. Pl. 1. Prost, of Columbia, and
Aliss Bessic Holladay of Paris with Mr.
Palmer 11. NleMNaster of Columbia, S. C.
Last came the bride and groom.
"A beautiful and very impressive
ceremony wa performed by the brides
pastor, tile Re'. E. U. iutherford, D
).
"The bridal gown was of ivory\ white
satin with bodice of ieehss lace. Iler
beautiful veil being her mother's wed
(ling veil, was held in place by orange
blossonis and a largo diamond snml
burst, a present from the groom. She
carried a shower bouquet of bride roses.
"The bridesmaids were dressed alike
in pink organdle and carried LaFraiic
rOSeS.
"The clhurch was more handsomely
decorated than it has ever before been,
in palms and ferns togother with whito
anild piink roses.
"T'he bride was the rnecipienmt of a
great many vecry hiandsomle preseCnits.
The displaiy was a remarkably fine one."
It should be added that Miss Frances
Joh ne uon of Paris p)residled at the organ.
A t 10 o'clock the same evening the
bridal Part,y began the homeward jour
ney, amriv'ing in Columbia Thursday
niight at mid night. Thlainksgiving diIn
nori was eat.oin at A sheville and a good
one it was.
Mrin. F. 11. AMeMaster did not ro'tun

handsomest county courmt houses I have

Ms. WV. L.. Davis, tho father of the
biie, lives imn one of the oldest, hiouses
in K.ontucky~ and it is a q uaint and ole
gant old timen home. It is known as the
"'Rock ilouse'," being built, of stone,
amid it has an int,or'esting hiistory. The
par'ty was told that, it is stated in the
"Life of Jlosephm Duncan,"' the third
Gov'er'nor of Illinoiis, that lhe was born
in t,he "rmock house" on the hill in
Paris, several years after his jather
locatedi there, in 1793. So this old time
r'esidence is morre than a hiundriedl years
old and t,he large mantles wit,h their
quaint hand (carvinlgs testify t,o the age
of the building.

On the return trip we rehed Co
lumbia at. 12 o'clock on Tihur'sday night,
being two and a half hours late, occa
sioned by a break down between Aiston

very pleasant trip and I am glad I had
the pleasure of taking it. To tho young
couple who have plig htod their love the
beet wishes of' many friends and ac
quaintances are extended.

In 5 on the 10th1 (if D'?cetmiber., tlt
first house of worship that wits buii
for the use of this congregation wa:
solemnly dedicated to Almighty tiod
That, was just forty-six years ago, 0
will have been at, thc expiration of ti,
present week. The history:and work o
thiq congrtegation since that grIeat da,
are comnprised within the period of forty
six years. This hii,toi-ic fact has sug
gested the use of the followivg text oi
this occasion:
4"Polty and six year-s was this temph
in building." These words, as every om
is aware, wer- said by the Jews it
ainswer to the statement, of Jesus, "De
siroy this temple and in li rec days
will raise it up." They supposed thia
he spoke to them of the temple it
.Erusalem, historically known a
lilrod's temple.
Following the example ot an itnspire(
disciple we ae warranted fin spcakin
of this coigregation as such at temple
and we may say that forty and six yeai
wits this tempile int building. As wt
look back over' that perPiod and treveiv,
its history we cannot but be impreasse
wit,h the thought t hat the blessing o
Almighty God has been granted unt,
this people. The congregation begaa
with twenty-one members, threo o
wht-m ar-c now living in the city o
Newberrty, andI whot have been with the
Chiurch tbrough all its vieissitudecs and
trials, and who connect the present witi
the beginning.l"romn that small band the
conigregation has steadily increased li
membersh ip until today there are 301
members, 26-i of whom reside il
Newberry or in the vicinitly. And whi
can tell save those who have followed
this delCopmt,l3l and who have watch
ed It with eager lnter'est, of the strug
gles tand disappoint,ments anid tear
through which this p'-ogress has bec;
made. Other societlue and( institution
are often founded and flourish for
time andI then die, or perhiaps barei:
holid their own, but rarely Indeed doc
a Church show ally such lack of virility
It may have periods of depiression, I
miay hatvo dlileuilties to overcome, hr
seldom does it die. Its vigor, its powe
to holtd togethert atnd to survive niotwitii
stanti Ing t,he inlinence of untoward cit
cumstantces lendt support. to Its claim i,
he a divine Instiltatilon and lndestr'uct,
ble because it enjo3 s divine favor an:
-)iprotection.
Thiunk niow of thi i-el Igous and morr
intluences atrted by this congregatlo;
and ketpt in operat in thiirough all thi
period of forty-six years. ThInk of thb
thiousands (if sermtions that have be
pireachied froem its pulpits. Many c
these si rmonts delivered by such mic
as Storkc and ht-own and Stmoltzer ar'
no doui at remembered until no0w by th:
older members and their good ant
wholesome influence Is still felt b:
thorm. Somne of you can this day reca]
some part,icular sermon t,bat made al
itmpression upon your minds and heart
that set you to thinking seriously ani
that gave you the first impulse to strivi
after a bettor and a higher life. Yoe
can recall how you were led to a fulle:
*consooration of yourself aind your timi
and means to the service of Christ thb
- Laord and his Chureh and you can ye
feel the thrill of joy and delight whoa
y'ou felt that to you It had been p)ermit
t.ed by t,he Lord to do someo act tha
was pleasing to Him. Think of tht
earnest prayers that have ascended tt
the Throne of Grace from the hearts ol
people assembled In this place of wor
ship, and the hearts-ease obtained in an
swer to Ihese prayers, and of the hell
received for the duties of life and of tht
high resolves that led to a more con
sistent and worthy life. TIhink of ti
work done during all theae years in thu
Buday-school, of the great nni
ber of children there tatught the firsi
rud i eitll Ls of our holy religion, andl
of tho lartger ones who have been
Inst ruet d in tho word of Gotd. Think
I, of to good inliuences that havo been

%very day lives and words and d.1ets,
how they have visIted and c11on-orted

uth the influence of this church his
not been limiited to the inmmediate
cotmuniuity. Think of the great nuim
bet of studilt ls who hAve attended
Newber-y College teom year to year.
D111ting the tmost- imiportait period of
their lives their relitzious k uti re has
beenI influenced by those servants of
God who have ministered from this pul
pit and it this altar. Lhey have gocle
out. many of thet, to preach the gos
pel to Other congrlegations, and others
to employ their powers in dierent
spheres, but wheresoever they have
gotne they htive cartied with thei menm
ories of the bleAssi n gs which God has
been pleased to bestow u)pon them
thrlough the fiithful pastors and teeh

And then in :hinlking of the great

happy in the etjoymtient of God's favor
and in tle services whii:h they render
to liim in glory, and there are more
scort: of them, couting old and young,
than ti ae in our present membership to
day.so that we have already a goodly re
I presn-1tat ion in tChe Church t'iumphant.
STney belong to us too. They have gone
on before us, and they await us as one
b.; one we pass over to them.
Acid now let me speak of the material
f evidence of the life and growth of the
congregation. We might mention here
s -veral re.speets in which there has
- been improvemetit. The congregation
nas grown in wealth b3 God's blessing
atnd with this growth there has been
an increase in contributions for tihe
stpport of the gospad. There ias been
i growing appireviation of the obliga
tions resting upon the church fotr ,bc
support of the gospel which tis mani
fested i'self in enlarging beneficence
from year to year. But the matter of
which I wish to speak is the develop
men. of a just and proper conception of
what God's house should be. Your fa
thers built a house according to their
means and one which was timple for all
their needs. But the growth of the con
g-egation created and emphasized the
needl of a lar'ger anid moure suitable
bu)iilding, and when the need( was5 evi
dent the congregation rose in its
st,rength and built, and today we have
a beautiful and attractive church, none
too larige for the growing congregation.
Tlhis is a splendid achievement, one in
which every member who has labored
I and p)ray'ed may feel a just pride. But
as we sit here todlay and behold the
3 completed wor'k ther'e is yet even more
1 to be cnsideired. 'This congregation,
) by its wori,hy example hias given an im
l)pulse to the ent,ire commnunity in this
a direction. Others ar'e building or arc
precparing to build, and we hope that
- the timie wvill soon come when the sanc
tuaries of t he living God shaill be an or
5 nament to then str'eets of Newberray and
San honor t.o llis own glorious name.
