Thomas, J. W. Witherspoon and the writer respectively At these services nearly every * faith of the 70 ?id churches wert represented. Ami now the people all over Charleston are saying Bi> Lop Flipper can say more in a 15 minutes sermon than any man they, have ever heard living oi dead. If anybody is disposed tt brand this statement as false 1 invite them to confer with an. . , minister or laymen in Charlestoi who attended these services. Bap tist. Enisconalian or what. He do livered the sermon at the funera of the late Dr. M. A. Hollins ii eleven minittes at the. elofce ol . - ' which the entire audience was af fected, I have never seen anothe like him. Not only every sen tence but every word counts r his-'sermons. One sustains a grea' loss when he misses an opportu nity to hear Bishop Joseph Simeo Flipper, senicvr bishop of th? great A. M. E. denomination an< the .most acceptable leader o' z' South Carolina. .. ANNEAL CONFERENCES I The series of A. M. E. confer ences in this state will begin wit! St. Stephens church, Georgetown * .

A GREAT CONVENTION ? ^ No one can do justice to thi Kingstree district Sunday school convention and fail to speak ol the fine demonstration work upon the black hoard by Dr. J. W. With . ersp'on, pastor of Morris Brown nun i n. vnanesion, tne invited guest of the presiding elder. 1 ' have never seen anything to ex cell it. Dr. Witherspoon is ; wonder and his congregation at its head one" among the fev :? : Mich jmotors in our denoniThu Don" The games and musfic by Mrs. {Ruth Dinkins"\vas one of the in"teresting features of convention. "And how, to use your spare time' a subject discussed by Mrs. M. B Renhow was simply fine. Rev. R M. McClam, pastor gave us a wonderful entertainment, and is to be congratulated on the arrangements. "U'll * ?? ? ?'* < TT ivi/dt U.A>C, VV E, DONE" If the church sends a bad bis hop to preside over ap Episcopa' district we can but do our dut\ until he is removed. In a cast Y'here we have the facts at oui , copvinand to prefer charges a gainst that prelate we should do . soi at the proper time and place , Its sinful to undertake to snub and | humiliate a man because he stood by ami defended the bishop who was sent to preside over him. We promised on entering the ministry that we would reverently obey out chief pastors, etc. I supported Bishop Noah W. Williams, with my voice and pen just like did al the others of which every man and woman in this state will attest. I am Rolnic to support Bis hop Flipper iust like I di(T the rest, hut the unreasonable thine ?bn?that those wtifi were against Bishop Williams are against those of us who stood by him. This writer has been censured for writing of him as a great bishop. And yet some have been reading the same reserved or preserved resolutions for all the bishops every since .Noah left the ark. From JBishop Richard Allen to the present bishops; now what's the difference. The well kept resolutions' .say the same things about them all. My wife is the greatest woman to me because she is mine.1 The-same is true relative to piy children. And to all whom' it may. concern my bishop is the greatest off all bishops to me. That may not be true with those who find occasion to go out of their way to make unpleasant references to "The Old GraV" for tb? ?*<? /> TWTTT7 I am speaking for* myself. And what is true with me may or may hot he true with them. And if supporting my bishop is a crime this writer will continue to corn? mtt--them whethor he he official reporter or a self appointed one. All of the papers will get the news. DR HOLjLIXS PASSES All that was mortal of Dr. M.
