Their Jackson friends, of every faith,
called in great numbers to express
their congratulations, and the wires
conveyed many kind wishes from
4 friends in this and other States. Bishop
/ Galloway is one of the great men OF
the South. and if he were not a bishop
he would be governor, senator or

that he pives his wife the credit for his
present position in life-that "her

When Rev. c. Galloway closed his
last pastorate in jackson this writer,
in reporting the occasion, said he had

perhaps the first hint of the honor that
in due course was conferred upon him.
