A Notable Tribute Worthy of
Recording

Recording
The Richmond News-Leader con
tanned the following editorial ar
ticle, which is of local interest n
Lexington, in it's issue of last Fri.
day:
1t is something for our North.
ern negro.philstic friends to con.
slider that upon the death Of the
Rev. DR.. James Addison Quarles,
professor Of philosophy at Wash
ington and Lee University, the
First Baptist church, colored, of
Lexington, passed resolutions in
respect to his memory and that the
colored Methodist congregation of
the community are &c h.oll33 sluarles'
memorial services. The resolu-
tions Of the colored Baptiets refer
to DIR. Quarles as "a Christian
father; one who was with US In
any and every time of need, Cue
who came to our reseue with words
of council when our own wits
failed US, one who was at our bed
side in our Affections, at our doors
in time of distress and with US
when the gloom of death hung
soiemnly over our homee." The
resolutions also set forth that DR..
Quarles was member OF one of
their church organizations, al.
though he was a minister of the
Presbyterian church.
This 10 tribute worthy of re-
above those paid the great
