J. T. Fowler, who has been i the beloved pastor of the church the, 2 past year, preach his farewell ser- j C mon. Mr. Fowler and his family came d here about one year ago and in this tl short space of time he has made many w warm friends in and outside of his1 p awn nnncrrairntinn all of whom nOW i U ?o?o regret his departure. Many friends, | si especially those outside of his own e< congregation were very much sur- ll prised upon hearing that the general o; conference was removing him after: tl a short stay of only one year, al- j s< though it is well known that this is ti strickly in conformity with the dis-; cipline of the church, and never is a n minister or presiding elder permitted ! t< to remain in an appointment more' S than four years. It is for this reason j w that the Rev. D A. Phillips, whom | 01 we have all become acquainted and, h: fell in love with, is being sent to an-! other field. Mr. Phillips has, however, j been with us longer than four years, by reason of his having first come to *j' us as pastor of the church, in which j ^ capacity he served for several years h; before he was appointed to the pre- hi siding eldership of the Kingstree dis-j ^ trict. j (w: He made h;s congregation a good j n and faithful pastor, and through his! efforts their church debt was paid. As' a presiding elder, he's a good one. j The preachers who serve in his dis- j st trict appreciate the fact and the bish-1 d< * 1 At. _ -1 U I . ops who preside over me cuua-u u know it and recognize him for his good works. at We are sorry to see him leave, and si hope he and his family will be happy' in their new field. i o jRed Cross Seals Red Cross Seals are on sale at all j ^ of the drug stores in Kingstree as! well as at the Kingstree Dry Good's Company and at W.
