A Minister and an EDITOR Renew
Youthful Recollections.
An interesting incident occurred
yesterday, in connection with the
meeting of the Presbyterian high
court of synod in this city.
It had been announced that the
Presbytery, which had been in ses-
sion the night before. would assemble
at 9 o'clock a. M. A number Of min
listers were sitting about the door, and
others had strolled into the church.
Among those inside the church,
the Rev. DIR. VIM. George, now OF
Bolton, Tex, but formerly of Ken
lucky, with his overcoat on his arm,
walked up into the pulpit, and catch
ing the eye of gentleman rapidly adj
vancing up the aisle watched him
closely. The gentleman when near
the pulpit stopped, and assuming an
oratOrial position, addressing himself
tQOr. George, said: although my
|ncy was rocked in the cradfo Of
DasRhY, my voice is not God ga "a, Z
- but sc pluribUs unum&-
Il Few ministers in the church
wat d the gentlemen with evident
int BIT and amusement, but DIR
Gedyge rapidly advancing and extend
ing both hands, said: "My old college
friend, Joel Miller, whom 1 have not
seen for thirty years."
The two clasped hands with a
warmth that evidenced that through
all the years of separation the two
college boys. and men, had preserved
for each other the warmest attach
ment.
DIR. George and Col. Miller were
g-aduatedfrom Centre College, Dan
Vile, KY, and Col. Miller recalled the
recollection by quoting paragraph
from a society speech of the then
eloquent young 1rishman, and now
useful minister in the Presbyterian
church, DR.. VIM. George.

In reply, DR.. Smoot said that his

he first went out to preach. He was
assigned 70 district where the people
were poor, but the eloquent young d.

Twelve hundred dollars had been
fixed as. an annual salary for Bro.
Ziveley, to compensate for his evan

Angelo had, obligated itself to pay
5000 of this amount" It was but
