social workers, your correspondent had
enjoyed the rare favor of q visit to
| Greenwood during the 9th and 9th
| lnst.,. attendant upon the WOman's
Foreign Missionary Union of the South
Carolina Presbytery.
We cannot forget and shall always
ness shown, and the official COmpeten-
cy manifested by the Greenwood ladies
OF the organization. Charity is q de-
llghtful trait when so surrounded by
these refined graces, and who would
not be missionary or delegate9 Who7
Your correspondent was apportioned
| to Mrs. Bird, on Church street, whose
home and talents and carriage were ut
our disposal for the good OF our per-
| sOnal qualification and the adornment
or Christianity. GreenwOOd's magnifi-
cent cdifice-the new Presbyterian
ChuI CHI, costing S11, 1,000-was occupied
by M intellectual body of women scarce
ever surpassed there in zeal by any or
! ganlZntl0n OF Christian workers. Two
, lnlmitable audresses-OHe by each-were
delivered by Rev. J. Lowry Wilson, ID.
| d., and Rev. j. Fairmun Preston, of
| Grecnvillc. Comment on these ad-
dresses in point of exclusive ability
| and convincing argument would be
| almost detrimental as entirely unwor-
| thy any attempt at description or mar
ration.

president of the Union, presided, and

ty another indispensable, Miss Annie
Bell Towers, of Anderson, Secretary

not think of 1t; and We love mission
work so well that not ons Of Us could
be found who was willing to write n
