We but voice the feelings of our
whole community, when we say
that we are sorry that the Bishop
saw fit to transfer Rev. A. ]. LYDIA
to another charge. During the
pastoral year he spent here, he made
many warm friends, by his upright
christian walk, and devotion TO the
cause of his Master. He was book
ed for another year at Trinity
church, but late on Monday morn
ing, influences were brought to bear
upon the Bishop to change him to
another field, which he did few
minutes before the list of appoint
ments were read to the Conference.
We do not know Rev Hughes, who.
is appointed TO this charge, but we
are told that he is man of ability.
We extend to him cordial welcome,
and trust that he may find the year
here both pleasant and profitable
To the Secretary, Rev. w. G. Ri
eldatfer. and to Prot. Wade, we ex-
tend our thanks for favors.
The visiting Ministers are loud in
their praise of the genuine Virgin
ia hospitality extended to them by
our citizens.
The Conference will give Point
Pleasant, boom for all who were
here go away speaking a good word
for the town, and singing its praises.
The young preachers who were
ordained Sunday, were fine look
ing lot of young men, and we wish
them abundant success in their
calling.
The town seems deserted since
our visiting brethren have gone
away.
The neucles for big revival at
Trinity Church, was started Sun
day night.
Just before adjourning the mem
bers of the Conference made up a
handsome collection for Sexton j.
Icenhower. 1t was worthy gift
bestowed upon worthy man.
John lunsford, an inmate of the
Infirmary, has been subject to Sc
we're spasms. Last-week he took a
fit of insanity, got hold of gun
and knife, and began an indiscrimi-
nate cutting and shooting, and in
fiicted severe injuries on several of
the inmates. Officer Hoover was
sent for, who brought the poor man
to jail.
Mr.. John G. stortz has put a
sewer down on Main street to drain
the cellar under his house situate
on the west corner of Sixth street.

and that is guarantee that it is
done right.
