No, I am not a Baptist, but [ want
to say one thing of which this con-
vention has thoroughly convinced
me: The Baptist denomination in
South Carolina is a. militant organi-
zation, full of energy, imbued with a
purpose of conquest, concious of its
commanding position and determine
ed to make proper use of the men
and means at its command for the
"evangelism, baptism and education"
of the race of men. Admire them if
you will, criticize them if you can,
but fail not to give them their right
full place when you count up the
forces in the world for good. They
are by no means all that force, but
they are growing in grace, in know
lege and in power, and their ultimate
strength is to be measured only in
terms of the infinite.

How far South Carolina is behind
some other States was demonstrated
by the opposition encountered by the
proposition for the establishment of a
sanitarium. To be sure the opposi-
ton was at no time very dangerous
and any danger which might have
existed was eliminated-no, annihi-
lated-by the masterful manner in
which Mr.. Bristow presented the
question to the convention. Facts
we're behind him, sentiment was with
lin, and every consideration of hu'
mainly and Christian sympathy
prompted a response to his earnest
appeal. How effectively Mr.. Bristow
used every weapon at his command
was told when the vote of the con-
vention was taken and a splendid
majority was recorded in favor of the
proposition.

Denounces A False Report

| want to express my thanks to
many friends in and around Den
mis-, Miss, for their kind words
and help given myself and family
during the recent illness of my
wife and son. | feel SO grateful
to them that words cannot ado
quately express my gratitude. l
feel that | live among some of the
best people in the world. But l
understand that there is a report
circulated in and around Holcut to
the effect that | wrote letter to
a party down there stating that
my son had got his hand about
cut off, that my wife was very
sick and also that | had the mis-
fortune to lose my house and all
its contents by fire. Now the
truth is this: | wrote the clerk
of the church down there that my
son got his hand cut off by an
edge saw and that my wife was
very sick. wrote this that they
might not look for me there to
preach on the first Sunday in
March. AS to the turnout, it is
all false. | wrote no such thing
and the clerk did not tell anyone
that | wrote it. | feel like it
seems to hurt me in that coun-
try. Now l will pay five dollars
for a copy of letter that | wrote
stating anything about my getting
burned out and hope this will
stop the mouths of tale bearers.
May God bless the church at Cross
Roads and vicinity. Again
thanking the people of Dennis and
vicinity for their kindness to me
and mine, l will ever remember
you when l can. Ny family is
improving rapidly now.
