this great congregation. At the last coil-
ference he was spoken of for some large
CITY appointment, but there was no OPEN

In his last volume of sketches OF the
Virginia Conference, DR.. Lafierty says
OF Rev. Mr. Bane "He is a Randolph
Macon boy getting his license OCTOBER,
1886. at Ashland, and his send-on into the
ministry from the college in November
1887. He was converted in November
1875. and Joined our church. Mt Bane
halls from West Virginia; born In Nine
raj county. January 6. 1863. HIS parents
were Metnoulsts-George and Sarah Bane'
His father was a farmer with twelve
children. Charles was reputed MS pest
farm hand-early riser, brisk worker. ne
seemed to prefer an axe or hoe TO idle-
ness or play. He injured his heaIth Dy
excessive toll. He was educated at
schools at and near his home, standing
at the head Of his class. He grew roma
of books. Fou six years he taught school
I'm his county. During 1856 he was prin-
cipal OF the Graded School at Accomac
Courthouse. The latter year he entered
Randolph Macon. His society, at the ehd
of the first session, gave him its orator $
medal He graduated with distinction at
the second session in Biblical Liteature.
'His nrst circuit was Ashland. 1SS9-'SS,
where he continued his college course; in
lSSS-'9O West Hanover, still attending the
lectures.
In height Mr.. Bane is $40; weight, 80
pounds; high forehead; open countenance;
complexion, blonde. He has strong con-
victions. but is catholic withal. His voice
is strong and clear; his gestures free and
natural; his face. head, and body taking
part He is a rapid straightforward
speaker; as DR.. Edwards says. He goes
on His style is oratorical, but generally
simple though sometimes ne may be SAID
to be flowery. In disposition he is kind,
sympathetic, and affectionate. For a
young preacher. he is very popular in the
pulpit and the homes Of the people. His
sermons hold the attention Of the audi
ence from the beginning. He is especially
noted for earnestness."
The above was written some nine years
ago. and since then Mr. Bane has filled
several important pastorates. and his
work has been highly successful.
