A TRIBUTE TO THEIR PASTOR.
First Baptist Church Has Adopted
Resolutions.

At conference of the First Baptist
Church of Americas Sunday May Goth.
the following resolutions were adopted.
Whereas: After the calling by our
church of a pastor, and his acceptance
of such call, to go into effect on the
first Sunday IN June, this church was
so fortunate as to secure the services
of Rev. Il. A. Cooper as our temporary
pastor, until the coming of the pastor
who had heretofore been called; and
now, the term of his engagement with
us being at an end, our brother is
about to depart for other fields of use
fulness whereunto he may be called in
the providence of God: and
Whereas, He has most faithfully and
efficiently discharged every duty and
responsibility resting upon him while
in our midst, and we feel that our
church has been greatly blessed and
profted by his ministrations, and the
Individual members thereof have been
improved, benefited and instructed by
his presence and teachings; and he
has endeared himself to each and all of
our members, and those who have
known him during this short period:
therefore be it
Resolved, That in the departure of
Brother Cooper this church loses a
faithful and beloved pastor, an able,
intellectual and eloquent preacher of
the word of God, consecrated and
jealous in his calling, a cultured, up
right and honorable gentleman, and q
deeply valued friend, from whom we
part with much regret.
Resolved further. That wherever our
brother may go, he will always have
our prayers for the success of his la.
bors, and for his own welfare and hap
piness. Our hearts are grateful that
he has been permitted to minister unto
US, even for so short period of time,
and we will always rejoice at the good
reports that we expect to hear of him
continually. May the Lord ever guide
and direct him, shower upon him His
choicest blessings, and long continue
to use him as powerful instrument for
the advancement of His kingdom on
earth.
Resolved further, That these resolu-
tions be spread upon the minutes of
this church, that copy of the same be
furnished to Brother Cooper, and that
our city papers~and the Christian In
dex be requested to publish them.

WISHED MANY HAPPY RETURNS

Anniversary.

Anniversary.
Yesterday marked the thirtY-ninth
anniversary of the marriage of Mr.. and
Mrs. U. B. Harold, and while the
feeble health of the latter precluded
any formal celebration of the occasion,
as has been their custom, there was an
assembling of sons, daughters and
grandchildren in the palatial home and
the loYe and devotion shown them was
indeed beautiful. 1t was the fervent
wish and silent prayer of every men,
Der of that happy household that they
might be permitted to thus assemble
many times again with the circle still
unbroken. Miss Elizabeth Harold,
of the graduating class at Lucy Cobb
College, returned home yesterday, and
owing to her mothers illness will not
take her expected part in the COM
mencement exercises.

Mr.. w. w. McOrea. an aged resident
of Sumter county, died yesterday
morning, May 2Sth, at his homo near
Americas. The deceased had reached
the ripe age of seventy-four years and
was very generally esteemed. He
fought through the Civil War as a
member of QUITS Artillery and was
brave soldier, going with that gallant
command into the thick of many hard
fought battles. 1t is coincidence that.

to attend the greater reunion ''under
the shade of the trees" where are jack
son, Lee, his own commander, Quits,
and thousands who wore the gray.
