A MILLER DROWNED.
". ,. RIankenship, Formerly OF This
city. Loses His Life Near
EyHctlburg.

The Lynchburg News Of yesterday con-
tained the following account Of the drown
ing Of a former resident OF this city:
An accident happened early yesterday
morning nj the city water-works dam, just
above the CITY, in which NJ. j. Blankenshp,
q resident OF Daniels Hill, lost his lille by
drowning. He was employed as night mil
Ter at J. J. Scott & BrOthefs' mill, on the
Amherst side, and was in the habit OF cross
ing the river in q small row. boat en- route 10
and from his work. Seven O'Clock was bis
usual hour for returning home iD the morn
ing, but on account Of sickness in his family
he lett the mill an hOrr earlier, and IT is
thought, owing to the darkness, miscacu-
lated his direction and rowed over the dam.
Peope living along the riyer-bank state
that about & O'Clock " Help" " Murder
aud other cries OF distress were plainly
heard coming from the middle OF the stream,
but il appears that no one thought proper to
investigate the cause, and IL was 10 o clock
in the day and not until after the cspsized
boat bad been found several hundred yards
below the dam that inquiries began to be
made. 10 was then ascertalned that Mr..
Blankenship had not returned home, and the
conclusion was reached that the cries heard
emauated from him and that he had met bis
death in the manner described. Parties
were engaged most OF the day yesterday in
dragging the river for the body. but without
success. They will resume their efforts again
this morning.
Mr.. Blaukenship was about fifty years OF
axe, had been twice married, and leaves eight
children, the oldest dau ghter Of about
seventeen and the next a son Of fourteen,
who is now extremely III with fever. The
remaining six are very small and entirely
helpless. lie WAS recognized As an honest
and industrious maO, and his untimely end
will be regretted hy large circle OF friends
and acquaintances.
[Mr. Bankenship was a native OF this city
and for several years an employe OF the Gal
lego Mills. Mr.. Berry, who has been with
this milling COMPANY for a great number Of
years. told n Dispatch reporter yesterday that
Mr.. Bankenship was for considerable
time connected with the corn department OF
these mills and was a most excellent man.
He left here about ten years ago aud went to
~. Louis and later came back To Virginia
and located in Lynchburg. When IN this
city Mr.. Blsnkenship had brother living in

PUBLIC srNTTNEST.
Rev. Dr. Josbua Peterkn said the cres-
ton OF pntiic sentiment IA the most I'M
p0rtant part 10 this matter. There are
great many people who believe that the law
commanding an Observance of the sabbath
dav has long ago been sbrogated. The
ministers must convince such that there bas
been 40 such sbrogatlon, hut that the OBJ
seryauce has been only transferred from tue
seventh 10 The first dag Of the week. The
Doctor said II will be farewell TO Christi
auity when the Sabbath law is broken.
THE srEvEDOREs.
Rev. s. G. Cloptou, OF the Clay-Street Bap-
fist church, was the next speaker. The mag
nitudo oi The work. said be. is 20 great 1t
Is hard to tell where 10 begin. We
all know that there are heads OF rail-
roads. streei>car lines, and newspapers
whom We should get at, but how 70 do
this T. the question. A few years ago
some citizens In West Point became dis
gusied with the work At the whaif and ap-
preached the men ia regard to IT, They were
informed by these sieyedores that they had
no power 20 stop work, az they were under
contract TO The railroad ana beamDOst
companies. These good citizens then
addressed a letter 10 the heads o' the
steamboat lines, who In reply informed
them that they would quit the sunday work
II the railroad company would do the sane.
The Sabbath. loving clizcns tnen approached
the railroad officials. and they readily agreed
10 the proposition OF the steamboa'
lines and the Sunday work was ended.
But, said SIR. C,opton, in this city, where
there are 80 many railroads. we hardly
know where 10 begin. There is great
deal Of erroneous thinking on the Sabbath
question. some people actually believe that
Christ himself broke the sabbath law, hut
eyerv reader OF the New Testament will
readily see that the Sayiour's works on the
Lords day were limited 10 necessity, deeds
OF mercy and acts OF worship.
POSTPONED.
At the close OF Mr.. ClOpton's remarks the
meeting postponed a further consideration
OF the subject until the next monthly meet
Ing Cruesd ~ after the third Sunday in Janu-
ary). and each minister was urged 10 impress
upon his brother ministers the importance oil
attending.
The alliance then adjourned.
