Rev. Ransom Goes East.

. Rev: r. C. Ransom, who ever since
it's inception has conducted the affairs
of the Institutional Church, has again
taken up pastoral work, and will in
few days go to Newport, R. l., to take
charge of a church. The charge to
which DR.. Ransom has been assigned
is said to be the finest in the A. M. E..
connection. The membership is large
and intelligent. and will afford wide
scope for the exercise of the great
ability and rare oratorical powers with
which Rev. Ransom is possessed. He
was for several years in charge of
Bethel Church in this city, and during
his pastorate here has made for him
self large. circle of warm and admir-
ing friends who greatly regret his de-
parture from their midst. - - -
