~ Mge WO. ?MBC8C8C8aceC8MSESS^ ~| The "Old Gray" , ByEPh _in_.our_Jbriefii for this issue of the Leader, we meant to pay our respect, to the grand stalf officers of the K. of P. of the South Carolina jurisdiction, hill the many inti-i'o.stin^. eta .of uui atiumlift Iubu hskttl uj'Iu, . state our pOsitiop as. to:church matters in- this great state of ours. Yielding to tjie request will cause me ^o defer my article on the above stibjeet uptil next issue. C First my position as.to tho episco ? pal head.?I am >vith the bishops of my church, fust, lust and1 all times. And to be lyore specify. ;am right, with Bishop John Hurst, and all my friends.who are with" thi* bishop, wo are together all the way. And those of my friends who are hot with-the bishop is -where we divide. The T)ishop's interest will he protected by me. more so in 'his absence than in his presence; for B.ishop John Hurst needs but little if.any defense, when he is - on th<< scene. So if there be any who - who arc inrtim'TTTit np;n?i. t hi> hiw4??vpr I ant-the wrong' man for t hem to dlsV"j * cuss it with. My position further is, that 1 will not be a bearer of bad '-news tu'lhe bluhojt on my brethren. ?-&ossip and stuff that amounts to nothing will never be carried to the :?; . bishop by m<;. I Wunt my bishop to feel good and, to keep smiling.J ] e ' thitvkjt is alnipsf a crime to* disturb rrian lit-o Ristnn TJni?st with sm-Vi ri /the peace .and happiness of such, a ?1 "Bigger" mess t.hat is common immnfr seme of oy^ people. If I know one to.be an enemy to the bishop,, instead of telling the bishop. I shall watch him for the bishop and protect the interest of the bishop against such an enemy. I would only acquaint the *\ bishop of the attitude of this person toward him, if I found that the bishop was about to impose such confidence in his: enemy that 'should* be imposed upon his frieful. .And then when 1' h-ii-p' iloni. thiit 7 will lojien it' wilh him to use his go'dly judgment I care nothing about knowingeiny e'n?~?emies and--^especially when they can do me no harm, as usually is the case of a bishop's enemies, A gain my position is that, if tnere is a brother that wants to establish?a?hotter re between himself and idie~l>Tsh?*?trp "a nd"To have a bettor Unclerstand / ' ing; I am willing to do everything in .. my .power to have him do thatr* I remember once a bishop came to pVe. ... side over me,- who was not friendly ??disposed toward iiie'. :not tKat~hqr hjid anything against me, but because 1 was the avowed friend of the bishop woh had just preceded him, and they were not friends; and too, I had'signed a petition" for another bishop *anc '"Tifiis* bishop came instead. In - this , case, I with many others, were mark ? ed for the slnnirhtfy p?", But before that bishop's term hat expired, he placed me in the columr of his select. I' made a friend oute 01 him. I nso doing the bishop di<T"no1 "T?" come down to me-,' but .1 weiit up" t< him. I took kijodness. as my weapon . - of which says the. apostle, wjll-heaj coals of fire upon one's head. I show ed humility and Jesus said such is the best evidence of preparation foi greatest services. But the ^lisgruh' ties of mischief-makers in this age wotours "kindness" as "boot-licking' and "hufuiUty" or "belly-crawling.' But- such doctrine* is only destined tc get some-innocent man officially kill ?ed- off,' whfcfc death I am" not- pre' pared to die. I take the position thai a bishop is an un-equal maieh for ? minister to tight. I have been JfiiUtK and now 1 am old, yet I have not seer "a minister or a laymen that has evei gone up against, a bishop in the A M. K. Church, but . what he did not get the worse of it in the end. Now others may take whatever position they so desire. But this has been my -position-- hjr my church for 23> ytfars and there is not one "red cent" of ~ changp-with me to day. My position as to the many electoral colleges. of South Carolina and .those who sh o.uId 1)0 elected _Xrum?them -to?the (letir1-'1 Confurnrirto.*?Cpon this.: sulr= ject I shall havtf but little -to say; There are thousands of laymen in this r~~": State who are qualified in every way to fill the bill. .?They have been eonstant workers in their churches from -? their youth up, and the records, of _ their several churches will show that * they are worthy of any position in the gift of our great church. From that If umber, theT intelligent and Christian laity in-South Carolina arc fully qualified to make their select n k*' ma. i.c _ _i- -i. -it ~-\ i/iuij* i win ne hi tnu electoral coilege of my conforenre at Newberry, ,-S.
