preached 10 large congregations both
morning and evening Sunday at the Sc
cond Baptist church. The main audito-
rum being In the hands Of repairers, the
services were held in the Sunday-school

the pulpit of Emmanuel Baptist church so
acceptably for the last three months,
closed his labors there on Sunday

ton at the night service, at the close
of which many shook hands with the
young preacher. Mr.. Ryland leaves to-
day for his home in Mecklenburg
