Congenial conversation and music loaned wings to the minutes between eight and te.i o'clock, at this hour supper was announced. A commltttee from each class, saw that everybody was presented with a card, on which a half of some fami? liar quotation was written, the match? ing of these quotations for the pur? pose of finding a partner for supper, furnished much merriment. The supper served In the dining room of the church, consisted of oys? ters, salads, crackers, olives, ambro? sia, nablscos, chocolate, coffee and fruits in abundance. This Is the first Joint social the two classes have had but encouraged by such great success, the unanimous declaration Is, "there will be others." MAE A. CUTTIXO, I res8 Reporter. CORNER STONE LAYING. IMPRESSIVE CKHKMOXY AT ST. ANXE CHURCH SUNDAY; From The Daily Item. November 27. With all of the solemn ceremonies of the Catholic Church. Right Rev. Henry P. Northrop, Rishop of Char? leston, Will tomorrow morning, sur? rounded by Rev. Father Charles Du hois Wood, the Rector, and the peo? ple of Saint Anne's Papish, of Sumter, and many from the other cities in the Sumter Catholic Mission, com? posed of the congregations of Cam den, Cheraw, Florence, Georgetown and Sumter, the latter place being headquarters, place the corner stone of a new church dedicated to Saint Anne, Mother of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Bishop Northrop will be assisted by Mr. Walter A. Burke, of New York City, and the following vestry? men of the Sumter church: Messrs. Neil O'Donnell, John W. McKlever, F. C. Manning, Geo. F. Epperson, and T. B. Jenkins. Right Rev. John J. Monaghan, Bishop of Wilmington, Delaware, will honor the occasion with his presence.. Solemn High Mass will be celebrat? ed by Father Charles D. Wood with Rev. Father Joseph A. Gallagher, of Wilmington, N. C, acting as Deacon, Rev. Father Joseph Mahoney, Apos? tolic Missionary, of Charleston, as Sub-De?con, and Rev. Father Corne? lius A. Kennedy, of Sumter, as Mas? ter of Ceremonies. The High Mass "Corane Eplscopo" will be sung by the well known and talented members of the Georgetown S. 0t| Catholic choir, under the direc? tion of Miss Kate Morgan. Solemn benediction of the Blessed Sacrament by the Right Rev. Bishop H. P. Northrop will be held at 4:30 tomorrow afternoon, and the George? town choir will also sing at this ser? vice. At the High Mass the crossbearcrs and the altar servers will be Master John Wade, of Florence, and Andrew Farrelby, of Georgetown. The corner Btone proper was made and inscribed by Mr. Thomas H. Reynolds, of Char? leston, and Is a splendid piece of workmanship. The stone, which was taken from the foundation walls of the old Catholic Cathedral, in Char? leston, is of brown stone, and will serve as a fitting memorial to Right Rev. Bishop John England, who es? tablished the Sumptervllle-Provi dence Mission District, in 183?. The Sumptervllle-Provldence, and later the Sumter Mission has the dis? tinction of having been cared for by four illustrious bishops of Charles? ton: Bishop John England, Right Rev. Bishop Reynolds, Right Rev. Bishop Patrick Lynch, and the pres? ent Right Rev. Henry P. Northrop, D. D. Sumter Catholic Mission also has the unique distinction of having been the birthplace of two priests and two bishops, Right Rev. Patrick Lynch having been born in Cheraw, und Right Rev. Bishop John J. Mon? aghan, of Wilmington, Delaware, be? ing born and raised in Sumter, S. C. The first church edifice of the Sump? tervllle-Provldence Mission was lo? cated at Providence, Sumter County in 1837, and was administered to by Rev. Father Edward Quigley under appointment of Bishop John Eng? land. This church existed until 1848 when Bishop Reynolds appointed the Rev. Father Jeremiah J. O'Connell. The Providence church was named the Church of the Assumption of the Blesed Virgin Mary. Father O'Connell purchased a dls? carded Methodist church in Sumter and remodelled it. This church was dedicated in the summer of 1849. It was named the Church of Saint Law" rence in honor of Rev. Father Law? rence O'Connell, brother of Father "Jerry" O'Connell. In 1862 Bishop Reynolds appointed Rev. Father Timothy J. Sullivan pas? tor at Sumter. He remained in charge until his death, August 6th, 1865. He was burled beneath the church, and his body was but recent? ly moved to the new Catholic ceme? tery on Oakland Avenue. In 1865 Bishop Patrick Lynch ap? pointed Rev. Father Augustus J. Mc Neal pastor to succeed Father Sulli? van. Father McNeal built the third church of the Mission, and the sec? ond church of Sumter Parish which was dedicated In 1876. Father Mc? Neal, or "Father Mack" as he was familiarly known to Sumter people, of Sumter, remained in charge from 1865 to 1908, when he was retired with great honors by Bishop Northrop, Pope Pious the Tenth conferlng upon Fath esr McNeal the special honorary de? gree of Monseignor, a very high eccle? siastical rank in the Catholic Church. Father Charles Dubols Wood, the present rector, succeeded Father Mc ? Neal In 1908. His splendid work here stands as a testimonial to his ability. Ho has started the new $30, 000 church, built a new $5.000 par? sonage, moved the bodies from the old Catholic cemetery to the new cemetery, and has been doing great work In Florence also. Tho history of Catholicity from 1838 to the present time Is Interest? ing. In Monday's Dally Item will ap pear a long account of the "Sumpter ville-Pi ovidence Mission District" and the full account of the cornerstone laying exercises. Right Hev. Bishop Northrop Will deliver a sermon to? morrow at the corner-stone exercises. A description of the beautiful C>thic church edifice Will also be published Monday afternoon.

Sunday morning in the presence of between four and five hundred citi? zens of Sumter, representing every religious faith, Rt. Rev. Henry P. Northrop, bishop of Charleston, bless? ed and laid the corner-stone of the new Church of Saint Anne. At 11 o'clock solemn high mass was celebrated by Father Charles Du? bois Wood, with Father Joseph A. Gallagher, of Wilmington, N. C.? act? ing as deacon, Father Joseph Ma honey, apostolic missionary of Char? leston, acting as sub-deacon, and Father Cornelius A. Kennedy of Sum? ter as master of ceremonies. Rt. Rev. H. P. Northrop, D. D., bishop of Charleston, and Rt. Rev. John J. Monaghan, bishop of Wil? mington, Del., were present In the sanctuary. The Georgetown Catholic choir sang the mass. The main altar of St. Joseph's ohapel was beautifully decorated and hundreds of tapering wax candles shed a soft, mellow light over the brilliant and costly robes of the bishops and priests, and the altar boys, making a grand and inspiring scene. The chapel was taxed to Its ut most capacity, many having to re? main standing, and dozens of chair? were placed in the aisles. After the celebration of the mass, Father Wood, the resident rector, ex? tended a cordial welcome to the two bishops, saying that the presence of two such dignitaries honored the priesthood and the people of the ter? ritory of the Sumter Catholic mission. He spoke of the gratitude in his heart towards the people of Sumter, regardless of church affiliations, peo? ple of every faith who had assembled to help In the cornerstone laying ex? ercises. He then notified Bishop Northrop that everything was in readiness for the cornerstone exercises in compli? ance with permission granted by the bishop to erect a new church build? ing- He referred to the kindness of the Sisters of Mercy in permitting the use of their chapel for so many years and requested a continuation of the privilege until the new church is fin? ished. Ke invited Bishop Northrop to dedicate the new church ten months hence. Bishop Northrop then advanced to the main altar and welcomed the large audience, the visiting priests and Bishop Monaghan. Bishop Nor? throp, like Father Wood, paid a beau? tiful tribute to the memory of Miss Alice W. Boole and Mrs. Ella Tuo mt y the former who bequeathed $10,000, and the latter who during her life gave $5,000 towards the erec? tion of the new church edillce. He complimented Father Wood and the Catholics of Sumter on the acquisition of such a beautiful edifice by such a small congregation and particularly complimented Father Wood for his work in Georgetown, Florence and Sumter. The procession was then formed, led by a aozen little girls, attired in white, and the cross bearers, altar boys, priests, bishops, vestrymen, con? tractor, choir and the congregation following. Arriving at the building, the ecclesiastics, followed by the ves? trymen, Neill O'Oonnell. T. B. Jen? kins, J. w. McKeiver, F. C. Manning, Geo. F. Epperson, Walter A. Burke, of New York city, and William H. Boyle, mayor of Sumter, entered the new half-completed building, which was blessed by the bishop of Charles? ton. Then following the chanting of the litanies, reading of prayers, testing and blessing, and laying of the corn? er-stone. The ceremony was very impressive and interesting. Father Wood had decorated the front of the new church building with flags of the United States the Confederate States of America, South Carolina, of the "Emeral Isle," the flag of Saint Anthony's Guild with two white palmetto trees one on each side of the cross, showing a combin? ation of church and State. The Georgetown choir, which so delighted the congregation with their superior Instrumental and vocal ren? dition of the beautiful high mass, "Corana Eplscopo," was composed of Miss Kate Morgan, Mrs. Vernon Fields and Mrs. J. Lawler. This choir also sang the pontificlal vespers In the afternoon, which was celebrated by Bishop Monaghan. In addition to other articles placed In the corner-stone was the record of the name, date and place of birth of Mrs. Mary Anne Epperson, who at 62 years of age, is the oldest living member In years of membership In the Catholic congregation of Sumter. She has been a member of the Cath? olic Church of this city for 60 and one-half years. Description of Church. The new church edifice is strictly Gothic in every particular of archi? tectural- design, and construction. Pure Gothic architecture, as is well known, Is symbolical of something in every feature. The outline plans of the architeure contemplate that the new building should represent a Roman cross. Entering the church from the front through the main entrance, one passes over seven stone steps, repre? senting the seven gifts of the Holy Ghost?wisdom, understanding, coun? sel, knowledge, fortitude, piety and the fear of the Lord. On each side of the front of the building are two Gothic towers of brick and gray standstone, with wooden spires. Over the large door facing the out? side, and supported by stone columns, one on each side of the main en? trance, is a triple window represent? ing the Holy Trinity. There is also a depressed Gothic arch over the main entrance upon which rests the triple window design, emblematical of the Trinity. As one gets inside of the church, upon the left Is the baptismal font stand, reminding you of the first sac? rament you receive upon entering the church. On the right is the confes? sional, another important place, re? minding you of the seven sacraments ?baptism, confirmation, eucharist, penance, extreme unction, holy or? ders and matrimony. In each transept gable end, on each side of the Building are two with windows, representing the great east and the great west, the rising and setting sun. Also emblematical of death and resurrection. The rear of the building on the in? terior forming the sanctuary is semi octagon in shape, representing in de? sign the head of the cross. The tran? septs on either side represent the two arms of the cross, and the arms of the Saviour, the front of the edifice forming a design representing the foot of the cross, the body of the church representing the body of the crucified God. I There will be numbers of Gothic arches supporting the roof, these arches consisting of two main arches, diagonally placed, coming down to about six feet of the floor and with beautiful ornamental cobbles at the bases, and a number of small arches reaching down between the main and minor windows. There are many other beautiful Gothic symbols and designs In the architectural design and construction ot the interior embellishments. The interior will he magnificent in its smplictty and n-atncs-. The material of the bulding is Augusta face brick with grey sandstone trimming, with Sumter Brick Works bri< k for inner wall construction. Whin completed the new church of St. Anne ^ ill be <m<' .if the most substantial and pret? tiest in South Carolina, and it is said vs. iH be the only church edfice having two r.othic towers on the front, gable ends of the same height and Gothic architectural design.
