GREmEyv1LLS Sep. 21.-Church-
goers in this community We're more
fortunate than usual yesterday (Sun-
day). At the Mount Hope Baptist
church the congregation listened to a
very interesting Sunday-school ad,
dress by Mr.. Smith, of Richland
county. Mr.. Smith is visitor to the
superintendent, E. R. Lesesne. Rev.
Samuel Leard, of Chester, S. c., was
present as worshipper, and was IN
vited by the pastor, Rev. b: +. Ohyer'
to occupy the pulpit, which he did,
and preached to the qualification ana
edifcation of large congregation.
After the sermon three applications
for baptism were received, and the
.pastor invited Rev. Mr.. Leard to unite
with all Christians present in extend
ing to them the right hand, which ne
did. In the afternoon these apph-
cants we're baptized by immersion.
In the evening Rev: Mr.. Oliver
preached at Greeleyville, and Rev.
MIR. Leard preached to good con,
gregation in New Market Methodist
church.
In his seventy-seventh year,
Mr.. Leard appears physically to be a
much Younger man. Standing erect
in the pulpit, with clear, strong voice.
he breaches the Word with power:
The writer's personal acquaintance
with Mr.. Leard extends through a
period of ffty-four years. 1t was a
benediction to have this aged servant
of God guest il his family for a day
or two.
In his long active life in the ministry
he has been brought in close assocla-
ton with many eminent men in church
and State, and his "reminiscences are
highly interesting. As historical
: fact it may be mentioned that Mr..
Leard witnessed the last death pen
saltv by burning at the stake which
was inflicted by law in South Caroh,
ma. Before the torch was applied
the funeral sermon of the criminal
was preached in his hearing by DR..
j. T. Pressly, Of the Associate Re
formed Presbyterian church. After
the sermon the minister wept freely
while talking to the doomed man.
