Correspondence Of the Richmond Dispatch.l
EARLYsyILLE, Va. August 19.-The asso-
citation met at 10 a. NJ. and sang
" The morning light is breaking"
The Moderator read the third chapter of
Colossians. and the association was led In
PRAYER bv DR.. James of Culpeper.
Among the distinguished visitors pres
ent this morning were DR.. James. of Gull
pepper, and DR.. George Cooper, of Rich
mond.
The minutes were read and corrected.
The names of delegates were called, and
the association adjourned to the arbor and
proceeded to the consideration OF Self
Education" DR.. Landrum. of Richmond,
made the address. About 1900 persons
congregated in the arbor. Mr.. Massey in
troduced DIR. Landrum in few appropri-
| ate and eulogistic words.
THE ADDRESS.
DR.. Landrum said he was Baptist not
halt Baptist not Baptist and half
he was born Baptist. But he believed III
| the brotherhood of man. He believed with
Charles Wesley in taking IN his heart the
whole world. Self-education among the
Baptists was his theme. He was Bap-
tist-whether bad, whether good. he be-
lieved In the southern Baptists. lie had no
arimOsity against northern or or other
Baptists. He believed i'll southern Bap-
fists because they were more numerous
according to population. There were 2,0OO,-
600 in the southern States. He believed IN
Virginia Baptlsts.
NOT RESPONSIBLE.
He was not Nirginian, but he was not
responsible for that he was son-in-law
of Virginia He would have preferred to
have preached in Georgia but he believed
Virginia wanted him more. The Virginia
Baptists had the finest history in the world.
He believed IN their past and he believed
in their future. Their future rests In their
own hands. What the Baptists are to be
in the next hundred years will depend
upon the training you give the youth OF
to-day.
DIR. Landrum's peroration was eloquent.
touching. and tender.
THE SERMON.
Mr.. Massey introduced Rev. j. Il. Tur-
pin, who preached the introductory ser
mon (the centennial sermon). which was
based upon Pauls Epistle 10 Timothy H..
20. At this Chestnut-Grove church the
Albemarle Association was organized In
1871. Mr.. Turpin's sermon largely consist
ed of the history of the association OF
which Cbestnut-Grove was the nucleus,
and which has already been sent you.
From the Albemarle Association sprang
the General Association Of Virginia.
Not less than two thousand persons took
dinner on the grounds to-day. A table
about three hundred feet long was loaded
with every edible that the qualified house
wives of this section could concoct. All
ate all they wanted and the fragments
taken up were MANY basketfuls.
The afternoon session Is partly taken up
with Mr.. Turpins able centennial paper,
and tomorrow there will be much of the
business of the session TO transact.
