The gold leaf. [volume] (Henderson, N.C.) 1881-1911, 1895-10-17


Our people remember Prof. w.. "
Savage, who was principal Of Hender-
son High School at one time. He was
ordained minister of the Baptist
church afterwhrd and is now located at
Tarboro. Mr.. Savage preached the in
troductory sermon at the Baptist As
social ton IN Wilson last week, and the
Mirror says this of him?
Mr.. Savage gave lis a sumptuous feast
of gospel truths and presented them in a
most attractive and appetizing manner.
He is unquestionably a preacher of great
power, being a man of brains and pro-
foundest thought, an withal an orator of
thrilling magnetism. His style is strik-
ingly kilgorian ian adjective manufac-
tured especially for this occasion) for his
grand and sublime and towering bursts
of thrilling OratOry, SO brilliantly glow
ing With the fires of dramatic passion,
reminded US of DR.. Kilgo, who is in our
judgment one of the greatest pulpit ora
tors of this age. And this is as high
praise as we can give to the magnificent
effort of the scholarly Mr.. Savage, and
he deserves it most richly, for his sermon
on Wednesday night was q most admi-
rable production.

Entered Into Rest.
The following will be read with sor-
row by those who knew the lady. We
COPY from the Weldon Roanoke Neus of
last week:
noiseless tread, invaded a happy home,
that was mortal of Mrs. Mollie, the be-
loved wife of Col W. A. Johnston, of that
town.
The deceased was formerly Miss Mollie
Miles, and was about AZ years of age.
She was lady of the purest Christian
character and was beloved by every one
who knew her. Mrs. Johnston had been
sick only few days and her death was q
great blow to her husband, children and
friends. She was kind neighbor, de-
voted friend, and her loss to the COM
munity in which she lived is irreparable.
The funeral services were held at the
Methodist Episcopal church, at Littleton,
Tuesday, and the large congregation OF
sad faces testified to the great love and
esteem in which she was held. The re-
mains were reverently laid to; rest in the
family square Of the cemetery. there to
sleep until the resurrection morn.
May God deal tenderly with the stricken
husband and motherless children, as they
ait today bowed down by this terrible
dispensation, and may THE bereaved ones
see the rainbow Of promise in the eastern
skies proclaiming, II am the resurrection
and the life, he that believeth on me,
| though he were dead, yet shall he live
again" The Roanoke heSs extends it's
| heartfelt sympathy to the afflicted in
| their great sorrow.
