FAREWELL TO REV. DR. L0WRIE.
Emory Church Makes Handsome
Gifts { o Him and RS. LOwrfe.

~ ~
The congregation of Emory Methodist
Episcopal Church and the ministers of
the various Evangelical denominations
on the Heights bade the Rev. DR.. Lowrie
farewell last night in the Emory Church,
which he leaves after a full pastorate
term of five years.
The church was tastefully decorated
with palms and green draperies sugges-
tive of spring by the member of the
Ladies' Social Union. The building was
crowded at an early hour. Not all of
them were member of his congregation.
Among those of the other denominations
who were present were:-The Rev. DR..
Cornelius Brett, of Bergen Reformed
Church; the Rev. DR.. Charles Herr. of
the First Presbyterian Church and the
Bev; "; Allen, pastor Of the Bergen
The exercises opened with several glees
by the m Glee Club, under the
Emory Church. Mrs. Shaw sang. was
encored and received a handsome bunch
of roses.
Mr.. ]. G. Chamberlain, who acted as
chairman, then introduced DR.. Brett, and
ne praised DR.. Lowrie for the good work
he has accomplished during his pastorate
ana dilated in . humorous manner upon
tor from his people just at the time
when he has come to know and love
them.
w have all had a good time with
DR.. Lowrie," he said, tand we all regret
his departure from among us. When a
pastorate like this is terminated we are
glad sometimes that we are not Meth
odists."
DR.. Allen said a few words in eulogy of
the departing minister, whom he char
acterized as a freak in that This heart
is always on the right side and is Just
as big as his body,
DR.. Herr said that probably no one
you more seriously regret the loss Of
DR.. Lowrie more thar he. They were
~neighbors, and he loved him and knew
him better thar he did the ministers Of
his own denomination. He had often
leaned on him in moments of trial and
had relied much upon his judgment In
spiritual matters. He would be a great
loss to this whole community, but what
was loss! here would be gain somewhere
else.
The Rev. DR.. James B. Faulks, presid-
Ing elder of the district, made a brief ad-
dress n concluded with a little presen-
tatlOn speech as several members of the
congregation wheeled a handsome roll
top desk n study chair Of solid mahog-
ony. the present of the entire church to
the pastor, into view. DR.. Lowrie briefly
expressed his thanks. He said his heart
was too full OF appreciation n graft
tude for expression in mere words. Mrs.
Lowrie was presented with a handsome
rarior lamp. A collation. was served by
The ladies.
