Last Sabbath June 9th was a grand
day for the Independent Order of st.
Lukes Of the State of Maryland, there
being a Thanksgiving sermon preached
TO them at the Ebenezer Baptist
Church. Long before the service be-
gan the members of this noble order
assembled in the basement of the
church. About $3.50 o'clock Past
Chief Morton Deane raped the at
tcntion of the members, and requested
each Council TO fall in line in regular
order, which WAS accordingly done.
Past Chief Dsane then congratulated
the brethren and himself of being so
fortunate as to have the privilege of
escorting so many Angels (adies).
Reaching the main audience room Of
the church, all having been seated.
Past Chief Harrison Smith presided and
the st. Lukes had assembled on this
day for the purpose of having a thanks

He then called forward and intro

Rosa ID. Bowser, who delivered an in
teresting address, stating that we as
St Lukes and as Christians meet to-day
10 have a thanksgiving sermon preach
ed to Us that we may be better prepar-
ed TO steer our ship from the shores of
time to the shores of eternity. She
called up and introduced Mount Olive

Saint Lukes instituted in Richmond.

Rev. White congratulated himself at
being afforded the opportunity of ad-
dressing an order containing so many

seated before him. He fittingly refer
ed to the st. Lukes Gin nancy and the
| st. Luke in reality and urged upon the
| members of the Order to see that they
| live up to the principles of the Order
and thereby initiate that good Apostle
whose name we profess to honor,
The sermon seemed we'll received
and from what we saw and heard, il
made a deep impression upon the
members of the Order We were in
formed that there were only about tive
thirds of the membership of the Ordel
in this city at the Thanksgiving meet

At the close of thu sermon Deacon

In heaven Thy mighty power is known

Surrounded by seraphic hosts who con-
stant homage pay,
Though Thou vert forming from chaos

Man could prevail by faith and prayer
to cause Thee to undo,
Yes, undo all that mighty work, a

Delightful thought that Christ shall
