PAGKTWO. y. ] . ? Ik i ? ' ' ' ' ^? !==_ ByF.PMl Bishop Hurst Delivers Wonderful i _ Address i ~ Tuesday last the trustees or Aljen 1 University assembled in the Bishop J thappelle Administration Building of < the university persuant to the, call < ^ of Bishop Hurst to overlook the-busi- 1 ? ?' neaa. transactions _oi?the_^choQl lor! the scholastic year ending Jtfne 7th. { * The meeting was nothing less-than a - N< real feast of wve. The business anq { inspiring-. All evidence'points to the f Palmetto State as it relates, to the ^ A._M. E. Church. We only wished i . that feviory African Methodist in the , State could hay? been 'present to hear the address of Bishop Hurst. Among ( other things h? said: "Brethren, two ] years ago I came to South Carolina T by a majority vote of the bishop's ( ? council. Some of the bishops thought | that I ecause my large program iff ^ . Florida already begun I should not , be sent to South Carolina. They said , it would put too great a hardship j upon me. Others took the position ( that because of the work?doneby me' in tho St lite I would Be the proper one j1 to undertake the work in this state.! ' And so I was sent. I came to South i Garoliria as a supply -bishop with 1*| some .apprehensions. I did my work as l ost I .could.How well I succeed^"J ' ed remains for vou to sav. But when I-met the general conference and re-' ported I was* through. I "mean I was j t_b r o-U-ur-.h. Bat because of thej "r ? I work I vfas returned^ and now I-am T" herc~r3 a bishop sent by the Church. 7 -; ,7_- No man brought me here, ^he six : conferences of South .Carolina asked my- return and the "delegates to the man* saw that the wishes of the con-! frrences Were carried oiit at Chica-j .goj I am here for peace and I think; the best way-1? bring, about that peace .is to be peaceable myself. Now while I endeavor to be peaceful, don't you show an attcmpt-ia fight by drawing . back your figt at trie. Such usually causes a peaceful man to offer resent. ?ment. I am willing for the past to - be the past and begin from this present time. In words of an old Florida miser j-.ec us count tne old square and.begfc: overi" I am willing to for. - . give any man who has errored and ia ?-? xvilling lu cuiiic to ine and confess thxr~ same. > I \frill gladly adcfipt him and he will ba tbe same with mo. I have been acquainted with the affairs of this Statp for quite a. while. Way bark in Bishop Shorter's time when I was quiw^a lad I heard -of-South Carolina, and conditions over here.' I can recall Bishop Shorter's last visit to this State. \\ hen he returned home he arose from his bed early one morn, ing ate his breakfast, went to his gta?__?hie an 1 looked, at his fine black horseand then returned and VecITned upon lus so a and in a few minutes he was dead J "heartbroken over the affairs ~ of Bethel Church,s Columbia, S. C. Then as I gr?w cider I watched the career of Bishop Arnett, 'Embry, urant ana uairrs in tjlis state and in fact till of the rest. Ant? I don't know if I can recall a single instant during all of _ these years where there did ' nd? exist division of some sort in this State. I believe that the good people of South Carolina are tired of conr '.fusion and want peace.. And peace is .what I want, and peace is what I mean to have. Now let us have peace. __ > _ One thing I notice ni South Carolina - and that is the cast system.?It 1b harder for a person toy rise'after, a fall in South Carolina than in any olner place. That may not be a crime but I preach a gospel of forgiveness. I think we should forgive an individual and give them another chance. Then too, I notice that the tendency of the men is to become jeal* ous of what they call foms men get closer to the bishop. No man should go out and say that "the id man will do wfiat I say." I want to. tell you all now that no man will use me. I am human however and will respond to kind treatment. I am through with putting over large financial programs The Tas^'general conference seemed , to have discouraged such programs auu scarcely wanted to provide for those bishops who - did great work ,;.t ' ~ educationally. Bishop Jones' work at - V Wilberforce was outstanding to the , church and yet after that resolution passed at the. General Conference to move the bishops. I saw a man from Bishop Jones^ district hold up a placard before his face with the words written thereon, 4I am fre at last." If that 13 The fetmd lor those bishops' ' . "f who put over large programs in the A. M. E. Church I am through, wkat monies it takes to do the work of the ; district you brethren arrange for It and expect n further drive# from mo. My only reason for trying to raise " large sum# of money waa because of ' J ?ov/^>Q*Q?Q*Q*Q*o*o,Q*Q,crtft3rEA^vir(Aj^rlcwiQft md ?-??-- i r The New Rider i: lip Einr / . my church and because of you. I iid not get a cent other than what Bur law allowed. And you'brethren *m only asking you now to meet the j lemands of the church as you see ;hem to be from time to iime." The trustees and the assembled au-, lience acknowledged that a better speech never fell from the lips of , leaven could not getalongwifh such j i bishop as this. Let everybody getet us all have a successful fide for [our. yfiara.,_ _Bis_hop. and Mrs. Hurst ^ xre genuine Christians and I am graying that every minister and ev- j jry lay member in our church in this is room in the old State ship for alt j i? us, and there need not one be left behind. The bishop's address is all ! ;he terms that can be offered by mor- , tal man. They are strictly in accord with those of the lowly Nazarene. Let us have peace at any cost. With, jut it South Carolinais doomed so far rs conectional consideration. The bisli. op will not suffer any ill effects at the hands of the connection ' from .iour fightings among us. But remember that the general conference of this that comes - before it for recognition when soma from the Slate say he is all right and others say he is all wrong. It becomes a question of veracity with the voters. And 9 times out of 10 they believe the other side. The persons that would encourage evils and dissentions In bur State now ore willing to?destroy all of its possibilities for conneCttonal consideration.

' "To II&?e Peace I Must Be Peaceful" ' The above declaration of Bishop 1 Hurst mvfst be that of every true Afti.?! can Methodist in South- Carolina if i we will have peace in this Stated The 1 bishop is right when he says that a figtyt has been on n this State from j the days of Bishop Shorter. He is j equally right when he says that the j people of our church in this State , ~want peace. An since' our good bishop has sofinded the first note which gives us- the "pitch" in the above caption we mean to have peace at any cost. Like the bishop^ let this peace start with me. Let it start with you. ; Let us seek to be at peace one with another. Let ministers be transferred , , and fiil charges~in tne State where j tney are Dest nttea to serve, uon t i seek to curtail the influence of a good' i man. Let ua not fight a man bei cause he was not born in America ob i in our proud State. Let us take the j laymen fuHy into our confidence. Of I all the honored custom confusion that j ; has existed in this Stare, there have ; j been thousands who have been at ; S peace and looking forward-to this day , j when a proclamation of peace would | be sounded to the "church from the , bishop himself.
