Curious Documents Taken From
the Foundation of the Baptist
Church.

In moving the old Baptist Church last
week the corner stone was opened and small
metal box removed. This box contained two
silver.plated copper plates, a portion of
Sumter paper, probably the Black River
watchman, two silver coins-a thre. ceot

circular advertisements Of Charles W. Davis

clippings showed the heading of the "Samter
Watchman" with the names of their editors--
