Rev, J. l.. Williamson.

The death, Friday, 4.3O, Il. H., Of
Rev J. l.. Williamson, has removed
one Of singular piety, Of consccrated
mind, Of earnest Christian life. Nay,
more, there has gone from among us,
Il man Of largest charity, of unselfish
devotion to every cause that makes
for the upift Of human souls.
These attributes Of character, that
made him lion for the right and an
enemy without guile to all that was
wr"n" and base, may not have been
known and appreciated by every one,
for Mr.. Williamson, while fearless,
vas not boiStcrouS AId noisy and was
not. could not have been fully under
stood, except by those who knew him
intimately and associated with him
closely. 1t was my privilege and joy
TO work closely with him during the
ten years OF his ministry here as pas
tor Of Aveleiyh Presbyterian church,
and it was long since conviction
with me that a. minister, Mr.. Will
hanson fullymehthc requirements that
should obtainbetween raster and peo-
pie. He was always to be depended
upon in his relationship to the Sun
day school, not simply dropping in
occasionally. but attending with re-
rularity every session except when
hindcrcd by absence or illness. His
loyalty to the other activities of the
church were not less marked.
As preacher, sermonizcr, Mr..
Williamson was at his best, and he
always seemed to me that he loved to
preach, which he did with accurate
preparation and unquestioned unc-
tion and force. He always declared
the full counsel OF God, holding up
to his hearers the inimitable example
Of the Christ whom he loved and wor-
shipped. Mr.. Williamson preaching
was never tincturcd with false doc
trinc, nor maTed with the "modern
criticisms ''--he was absolutely ortho~
dox. holding aloft and presenting with
ut times wonderful force and beauty,

His sermons were uplifting and in
spring and the convictions which
they undoubtedly created in the minds
If his listeners will surely lingcr as a

WIDEN FRIEND STREET.

The widening Of Friend street on
either side and extending it to CAL
houn street will make it one Of the
prettiest bouvelards in the city and
the only street near the business sec
ton in which residences may be built
that will be both near and also quiet.
From Adams street to Calhoun there
is no house on either side except
Mrs. Cook IS which is on the corner OF
Adams and Friend street. Such an
opportunity to make this street what
it should be will scarcely come again
in this generation and now is the time
to act. Those who own the property
on the south side will face Friend
street when il is built upon and those
on the north side will do the same,
and these property owners being the
ones most vitality concerned should
see to it that this is made the pref
test street in the city and it can be
if they will all just set back few
feet and then require the town to put
the street and side walks in fine con-
dition as it should do.
The mayor and his committees
should get busy ut once on this prop
osition to widen rs contracts are be-
ing signed up to commence building
in this street. 1t is understood that
all of the property owners are will
iny but it needs some one to go ahead
and see that their desires are carried
out in systematic way.

very pretty display.
But the tables were not only cover

with the choicest and most delightful
food. The bill Of fare would have done
justice to any occasion. First grape
fruit, fresh from Florida, was served
and enjoyed by all. Following this
there was pressed chicken. salad. pick,
