Tho Departure OF Rev. E. S. Jones and Family

Rev. Edward s. Jones, for the past
three years pastor Of the Walhalla
Methodist church, left yesterday (Tues-
day. afternoon for his new homo at
Summerton, in Clarendon county. He
was accompanied by his wife and ohil.
dren, who will go by Spartanburg, where
they will spend few days W ith relatives
then on to Columbia where they stop for
a short while with other kinsfoik, reach
ing their place of abode the early part of
next week, where they will be comforta-
bly, settled in their new home In the
lower part of the State.
Mr.. Jones's pastorate here has been
one of many pleasures, both to himself
and the members of his congregation,
and his removal is deeply regretted by
his hosts of friends ct Walhalla and the
membership of his outof-town charges,
Mr. Jones preached his farewell sermon
last Sunday. 1t was an excellent dis.
course, based upon the appropriate text.
(Acts 20:31-32, Therefore watch, and
remember, that by the space of three
years ceased not to warn every one
night and day with tears. And now, bre-
thren, II commend you to God and to the
word of his grace, which is able to build
you up, and to give you an inheritance
among all them which are sanotif1ed." At
Suo Sioso y. Ills tnreo years Oh laOor In the
Walhalla charge his text was peculiarly
appropriate, and his earnest words of
appeal for higher and better Christian
life among the members, his well-timed
'rebukes, his words of commendation
and of warning, and, in closing, his ten
der words commenting to the Lord the
congregation he was leaving, were deeply
felt by his hearers, and have left their
impress upon the hearts of many. There
is not a member Of his old charge, or a
with us in wishing for Mr.. Jones an
abundant blessing upon his future work,
and for himself and his excellent family
that liberal portion of the good things
If this life to which the faithful minister
justly heir, but into the full inheri-
.ance of which he seldom falls.
