Tho Prosbytorians of tho little town of
Greenwood on Sunday dedicated ono of
tho finest chWoh"tL aiidings in upper
Carolina Tho congregation is not worry
large, nor is it rich, but each member
has contributed of his means and tho

nj shed at cost of $4,000, has not a dol
lar of indebtedness.
Rev. II. III. Nall, D. D., son of tho late
DR.. Nall, who was a loader of Southern
Presbyterians, went to Greenwood six
years ago from Fort Worth, Tex, and to
his onorgy is due, in largo measure, tho
substitution of this fipo building for tn Q
former small odifice.

noar tho Baptist and Methodist churches
Tho front presents massive pointed arch
| with an opon vestibule beneath with two
entrances to the main auditorium. Tho
| tower, at the right hand cornor, is 100
fcot high. The somewhat somber effect
of the dark rcd brick is offset by granite
facings, and tho building presents an I'm
usually imposing and stately appearance.
| Tho interior is finished in natural woods.
Therc are ten handsome memorial win.
dows. Besides tho auditorium and Sum
day school room, thero arc sovcn class
rooms, library, ladies' parlor and PASTORS

urged every possible opposition by Geor-
gia negroes to tho Hardwick bill to limit

status of a free slavo and that condition
would bo worse than before the war. 1t

IIo said tho author was merely soelking
notorioty and was backed by tho "poor
white element.
mot ono negro in thirty over thinks of
voting," the Bishop declared. "Thcy do
not sell their votes. Three votes are
sold for every negro ballot purchased"
The Bishop denounced tho Supreme
Court of the United States for taking
away tho negro's civil rights, but OK
copied Justice Harlan, who was the
nogro's friend.
Ho said tho negroes had no army, but
that the God of nations was Oh their
side.
IIo urged that overy minister assist in
gotting signatures to tho petition to Con-
to be usod in sending 100000 of the
race to Africa, 80 that thore would be an
ond of race conflicts in this country. He

tho negro of Georgia on his knee, as he
prays night and day to God "to blight
and curse tho promoters of this un.
righteous measure"
