strong preacher! We had with us

turing on the lesson and at eleven
o'clock instead of the missionary
sermon by Bro. White, the ordina;
ton sermon of young P. II. Bussey
was preached by his first cousin,
Rev. Abiah Bussey. This sermon
is said to have been a great one
In the afternoon, a council was
formed, young Bussey was eSamln-

Young Bro. .Bussey told his expert
ence and of his call to the ministry
Bro White offered the prayer, and

the Bible and charge. The exercises
were impressive, and thus a noble
young man was set apart to the COS,
