SUCCESSFUL IN REVIVAL.
Good Work Done by Former Resident
of Kingstree.
Sixty people varying in age from
the child of 12 years to an aged'man
of 67 summers joined the Great Falls
Methodist church as part of the results
of a meeting: in that church
April 9-16 in which Rev J Boyce Mahaffey,pastor
of Waverley Methodist
church of Columbia.assisted the pastnr
Rpv .T R Kilonre. Mr Mahaffev's
able sermons attracted large congregations
not only from the town of
Great Falls but also from the surrounding
country, the congregations
assuming such proportions before
the close of the revival that the place
of meeting was moved to the spacious
school auditorium.
The proportion of young men and
young women joining the church was
encouraging. The interest and cooperation
of the mill executives and
leaders of the community added
much to the success of the meeting.
At the closing meeting a surprisingly
large freewill offering was presented
Mr Mahaffey, greatly to his
astonishment.
Recently Mr Mahaffey asked his
concreeration for $105 for a church
debt. They responded with about
$300.
Mr Mahaffey is a son of Rev J E
Mahaffey, a former pastor of the
Methodist church here.

"OLD GLORY" FLIES IN LONDON.
Service Commemorating the Entrance of
itbe United States into the War.
A service unique in the annals of
Great Britain was held in St Paul's
cathedral, London, Friday, as a
thanksgiving for the enlistment of
the United States in the world war.
This great church has a seating capacity
of 4,000 and was packed to
its capacity.
The American flag and the union
jack were carried in procession, and
a large choir sang "The Battle
Hymn of the Republic" and "The
Star Spangled Banner." Appropriate
prayers were offered, and the
sermon was preached by Bishop C
H Brent of the Philippines. The entire
congregation except King George
joined in singing "God Save the
King." and the benediction was pronounced
by the Archbishop of Canterbury.
Many other cities and towns in the
United Kingdom celebrated the
event with a lavish display of American
flags.
Numerous kveterans of the civil
war live in London, many of whom
until that day had never seen their
country's colors since leaving their
native land.
The Stars and Stripes now float
from Westminster palace, the first
time any but the British flag has
ever been seen there.
One of the Family.
Mrs West was on a street car and
one of the passengers met with an
accident. The conductor took the
names of the witnesses, but Mrs
West, to avoid being summoned to
court, gave a fictitious name and address.
The next morning her colored
cook ventured to remark that "dat
man must a' been hurt mighty bad
yesterday."
"Oh. were you on the car, Miranda?"
asked her mistress. "I didn't
see you."
"Yas'm.I was setting right behind
you."
"Weli, Miranda,I hope they didn't
?et your name, for I couldn't spare
you to go to court."
"Oh, no'm; I never give 'em my
right name. They'll never find me."
"What did you tell them?" asked
Mrs West, wondering how far Miranda's
imagination had led her.
"Well'm, I heard you say, 'Mrs
Hawker,' so I sez, 'Miss Hawker.' "

A city-bred child whose knowledge
cf the wild was very limited was j
walking through the woods with her,
governess. They chanced upon a
porcupine. At the approach of two 1
individuals whose intentions might ;
fce hostile, the creature bristled ag- i
gressively, its weapon-like quills rising
in menace.
4 Oh, look!" exclaimed the little '
girl. "What a fright we have given i
that funny animal! Its hair is standing
on end!"

Resolutions of Respect.
Whereas.lt hath pleased Almighty |
God,the Great Geometrician and Supreme
Architect of the universe, to
call from labor to refreshment our
beloved brother, R H Kellahan, who
departed this life at Kingstree, S C.
i March 4, 1911;
And whereas. In the death of
brother Kellahan, Kingstree Lodge,
No 46, A F M, has sustained a loss
which has deprived it of a Mason
who by his life and works exempli-,
fied its teachings of brotherly love,
virtue and charity;
And whereas. While we realize
that his ear is closed, his tongue silenced
and his breast cold in death,
yet on that great day where the lesson
of the twig of acacia will be
' forcibly realized in the immortality i
I of the soul, we shall find the spirit!
! of brother Kellahan awaiting us and

and more glorious brotherhood and
j shall together meet in that temple
! not made with hands, eternal in the
j heavens;
Therefore be it resolved, That we
realize our loss and derive comfort
in the promise of our reunion.
To the family we extend our
heartfelt sympathy and the words
of comfort that he awaits them.
Be if further resolved, That a
copy of these resolutions be spread
upon our minutes and a page dedicated
to the memory of brother Kellahan.and
a copy be presented to'the
family of brother Kellahan, and to
The County Record for publication.
