The Rev E A McDowell, late of Fairfax, arrived in Kingstree with his family Friday, after being somewhat delayed on account of the poor transportation service that is now being experienced by all who travel. Mr McDowell was here several weeks ago and preached to the Baptist congregation. Those who heard and met him were favorably im j _:?.u L:_ 1?tU presseu Willi mm uuiu as a Iiiau atiu as a minister of the gospel. Later be was offered the pastorate of the :hurch here and accepted, he having previously tendered his resignation as pastor of a church at Fairfax to take effect on January 1, this year. This man of God and his good tvife comes to the local Baptist ihurch and to the people of Kingstree with high endorsement. We are glad to hcve them and assure :hem that they will not find, anywhere, a better place to live or a iner people to be among than right aere in Kingstree. Mrs McDowell is a lady of culture, possessed with a most pleasing personality, and is a recognized worker n the great field of religious enleavor. Mr McDowell comes of a fine old South Carolina family; he was edu:ated at Furman University and the Southern Baptist Theological semilary. Has held several important pastorates in the State, among the not haincr at NiYPtv-Six and Fairfax. Referring to hit? resignation at Fairfax the State newspaper under iate of September 24 contained the following notice of his work there: "The Rev E A McDowell, pastor )f the Fairfax Baptist church, teniered his resignation last Sunday norning to take effect January 1. L918. Mr McDowell has under confideration other fields, but has not /et decided where he will make his future home. During the three /ears of hi3 pastorate here the BapList cause has had a phenomenal growth. From a constituency of ess than 100. having twice a month preaching, the church has developed nto a more efficient body, supportng a pastor for all of his time, ownng free of debt a splendid church plant, contributing systematically to ill benevolences and having added Tiore than 100 to the membership. "Mr McDowell has made a number of strong friends in Fairfax and :he surrounding country who will regret his removal." Bot Sapper at Rough Branch.
