Rock HILL, January 17.-An unu-
sual scene for this section was enact
ed under the shed at the passenger
station Sunday afternoon. Rev. w. b.
Duncan, pastor of st. Johns M. e.
church with a number of his Epworth
League workers armed with Bibles
and hymn books arrived there and be-
gan an open air service. There Is at
all times during the Sabbath day a
large crowd around the depot and
consequently the preacher found a
good sized congregation awaiting
him, or rather there. Most Of them
remained and listened attentively to
the service. This innovation was In
consequence OF a resolution made by
the Epworth League to begin holding
services in different places, where they
can help those who do not come to
church for one or another reason.
They can always find a crowd at the
station.
