Crosses OF Honor.

The ladies of the John G. Calhoun
Chapter, u. d. c., are preparing to be-
stow, at an early date, twenty-three
"Crosses of Honor" upon Confederate
soldiers. The Chapter has unanimously
elected Col. Robt. A. Thompson to make
of this important exercise has not been
definitely fixed as yet, but will be made
known at an early date, 80 that the public
may be able to attend and witness the
comforting of the "Crosses of Honor" on
distinguished Confederates and listening
to the interesting and practical address
by Col. Thompson. The Chapter should
feel peculiarly fortunate in having secured
the Secession Convention to be with them
on such an impressive occasion and to
deliver an address.

Impressive installation Service.

On last Sunday morning at IL O'Clock
Rev. Lowrie Wilson Brown vas duly in
stalled as pastor of the Walhalla Presby-
terian church In the presence of large
congregation. T. was an ideal autumn
day, and the members of the Methodist,
Baptist and Lutheran churches wor-
shipped at the Presbyterian church. 1t
was an occasion of great solemnity, and
the spirit of Christian fellowship mani
tested was refreshing and helpful. The
choir was composed of members of the
choirs OF the several churches named,
and the music was inspiring. Rev.
Francis w. Gregg. of Pelzer, preached
tho installation sermon; Rev. j. j. Har-
rell, of Westminster, delivered the charge
to the pastor, and Elder w. p. Anderson,
of Westminster, charged the people as to
their duties. Appropriate words of well
come were then spoken by Revs. K. s..
Jones of the Methodist church, Geo. n.
Judd of the Baptist church, III. C. Gross
man Of the Lutheran church, and @. D.
Mann, former pastor of the Methodist
church. At the close the right hand of
fellowship was extended to Rev. Mr..
Brown by the members of his own and
the other churches. The occasion was q
benediction to this community. The
sermon and tho charges to pastor and
people were strong presentations of Cos
pei truth and earnest pleas for the per-
vice of the Master. Believers were built
up and edited, and the thoughtless must
have been impressed. The new pastor
of this church enters upon his work
under favorable auspices. May the labor
of his hands be established and much
and lasting good accomplished under his
ministry.
