Rev. R. W, Mfthce, A. M. D. D., is
-minister of outstanding qixtlifica
ions for tire bis"tropvic in the great
M. E. Church. Dr. Glance, we have
r-s.orn fact-oT the rise of one of the
greatest' churchmen of our group,
from an environment that will be an
bispiiulion to countless numbers of
'(tits and daughters of Allen?hut the
thenomonon is less wonderful than it
seems. He came?not from a rieh
and fashionable parentage of a large
city; but he is the son of an. humble
a?:d highly respected A. M. E. pastor
and' was born in the village of
Ookeabury, Greenwood County, S. C.
Ilia feet, were upon, the earth, but the
were ever above him to inspire contemplation.
As a boy, M'ance heard
the. song of the thrush and the carol
of the lark. He watched the sun in
his cofjrre and the stars in their mystic
evolut-ionsr Hfrdcnew -th^-dim piths
of the. forests and his soul awed by
Out _of Nature's solitudes and re
sources ho drew thn nrimal elements.
<>t li:gtTi success, namely,-a'good heart,
a-clear head and'a strong body: and
thp-factors. aur-mon' ofV hy his- cchefl
a'ly aMaiiimen'M, fino talents and vast
experience, laving served as ,,presi_
dent, of A'llru University for several
years and having, prone from tho pas.
'orqte of mission^ to sofhe of the met.
vopolitan churches of the connection.
Dr. Mance is orthodox in theology,
?t>-\~
ckhied in the art and science of busi
nc$s, relentless in service fearless in
promulgating truth,, sedate- -and-po^
lUe in manners and pureMnhis ideas of
religion.
?^Alt the t'oafereneco of South Ca- rolina
have asked for his election.
And so when election of bishops will
bi in ordqr the struggles and a.- 1
chiev'emnets of this worthy minister
and tl;e high esteem in which he is
held throughout the connection, will
put him forward the first one to be
elected bishop. ^ .
Then give us?that stalwart champion
of the Connection, Dr. R. - R.
Wright,! Jr:,~"Ph. D., who^e Prolific
pen has been "Mightier than the
Sword" -in the defense of the church,
a scholar of outstanding ability, a,
