odist Church-0tber Matters.
Americas, Ga, May 1S.-Just forty
six years ago the First Methodist
Church building here was formally

The dedicatory sermon was preached
by Rev ]. w. Hinton then a young
minister. To-day Rev ]. w. Hinton.
D. D., one of the most venerable and
beloved ministers in Georgia, preached
also the last sermon that will ever be
delivered there, as tomorrow the old
building will be dismantled and de-
molished to give way to a new and
splendid church edifce of brick and
granite. A pathetic incident connected
with the service was that so few. if
any, present to-day heard the dedica-
tory sermon preached by the same
minister nearly a half century ago.
The new church building will cost 500
600, and will be completed during the
summer.
Abundant rains have fallen in this
section during the past week, greatly
helping the growing crops, though the
planting was late and farmers are still
somewhat behind with work

determined which one will be accepted,
the company will begin the erection of

is the most convenient place for peo-

not be safe for ladies or children if
all sorts of drays and vehicles were

There are as many property owners
