REV. DIR. wRIGHTs FAREWELL.
An Affecting Service at Leigh-street
Church sunday Night.

Rev. Or. William l.. Wright closed his
pastorate of six years and two months at
Leigh-Street Baptist church with the
morning and evening service sunday. The
scenes attending these services remain
unparalleled in the history of the
church. and were truly affecting. Sunday
night as he spoke to them for the last
time. when he laid aside the mantle
which had fallen to him six years ago,
men. women, and children sat In the pews
and cried openly and unTestrainedly. In
The morning he preached from the same
text he haG chosen when ne began the
great work he has accomplished with this
people: Il (We) can do all things through
Christ. which strengthened me" Phil. w.,
18th. In the evening he read PauPs adj
dress TO the elders of the church at Ephe-
Sus when he laid down the work there
10 go 10 Jeru salem-Acts Xxx, 17-H.
He reviewed the work which had been
done and what he had tried to do. lie
could honestly say that he had done his
duty. He came TO Lelgh-Street because
he was sought for the field, and since
coming had given the people unto whom
he came 10 break the bread OF life the
best strength that was in him. Indeed,
he had broken himself in the work. He
said II he had the. years 10 90 over he
did not see where he could do better or
more than he had done.
The immense congregation, filling the
peHs and overflowing TO the aisles and
altAr; the tears In many eyes; the closest
attention; the deep silence and sadness
resting like q pail over the entire peO-
pie. all testified how well he had sue
eeeded In the attempt TO satisfy this sense
Of duty. In the latter part OF the dis
course he returned thanks TO all the
forces which had helped him in his mis-
sion here; TO the congregation for its eX-
celient attendance always. for unexcelled
good order ar all services: to the deacons
