d. LEE JAMESON
Ordained to Preach the Gospel OF
Truth.
Parkersburg State Journal

Parkersburg State Journal.
The ordination of ID. Lee Jamison
at the Baptist church Yesterday was
an important event in the annals of
that church. Never on a similar oc-
casion were there so many Baptist
divines, prominent ones, too, assem-
bled in that church.
At the council yesterday afternoon
there was a fair sized crowd of spec
tators present DR.. D. B. Purinton,
of Granville, o., presided and Rev.
W. +. Powell acted as secretary.
For two hours questions dealing
with ecclesiastics were asked the
candidate, the majority of which he
answered promptly, fully and salts
factorily. He stood rigid test and
came out of it all with honors. He
was complimented highly ON his fine
examination. Mr.. Jamison is a young
man of mind. He is energetic origi-
nal and quite popular. That he will
make a success in the nigh profess
sion he has chosen, we feel assured.
At the evening service portion
of the Scriptures were read by Rev.
Ross Ward, of Morgantown.
Rev. Mr.. Harris, of Chicago, then
delivered fervent prayer.
DR.. P. B. Reynolds, of Morgan
town, delivered scholarly sermon
on the Duties of the Christian
Ministry" 1t was thoughtful dis
course and was listened to with
pleasure and attention. Miss Eliza
beth Davidson sang well beautiful
solo. The ordination prayer, beau
tiful in thought and rhetoric was
said by Rev. Mr. Walker, of Hunt
ington. A fine teachers Bible was
then presented to the candidate by
Rev. r. B. Smith in an address re-
plete with advice and instruction,
after which Rev. d. Lee Jamison,
himself pronounced the benediction.

A Burglar Visits W.E. IoIlin.

A burglar visited the residence Of
W. E. Jolliff on Monday night and
prowled around for two or three
hours, finally gaining entrance to
the house but fortunately he secured
no booty. Mr.. Jolliff is the proprie-
tor of an extensive bakery and was
known to have made several collec-
tions on that day. 1t is supposed
the thief was trying to get Mr.. Us
clothes in the hope of finding a con-
siderable sum in the pockets. Toward
midnight a man who works in the
bakery went into the house to 90 to
his room and he saw man in the
yard but thought nothing of it.
Near o'clock Mrs. Jolliff heard a
peculiar noise and called Mr.. Us
attention to it. He rose in bed in
time to alarm the would be thief
who took to his heels. The wire
screen was removed from the window
and everything seemed clear fol
work but Mr.. Jolliff's timely waking
scared him away.
