DIR. BRUNSON COMING HERE.
St. Matthews Pastor Accepts Gail TO
Grace Baptist Church.

DR.. John a. Brunson, for six years
pastor of the Baptist church at St
Matthews, has reconsidered his form
er announcement and decided to ac-
cept the call to Grace Baptist church
of this city, a call which he at first
refused. The members of Grace
church and others, who heard Dr..
Brunson when he was conducting q
meeting here some weeks ago, as
well as those who knew him pre-
Vious to that time, are extremely
gratified to have this DISTINGUISHED
Baptist divine come here as one of
the pastors of Sumter DR.. Brunson
is an eloquent and powerful speaker
and has the reputation of being one
of the 'rongest Baptist preachers in
the State. He will come here on Jan
uary 1 to take up his work as pas
tor Of Grace church.
In a dispatch to the News and
Courier, the st. Matthews correspond
ent of that paper says:
DIR John A. Brunson, pastor of the
BAPTIST church here, who some weeks
ago, declined a call to the First Bap-
tist church Of Sumter, has reconsid-
cred his former decision and has de-
cided to accept the call The recon-
sideration of his first decision came
after a second and more urgent appeal
on the part Of the Sumter people, and
1T was only after having fully gone
over the entire call with his conscience
that DR.. Brunson decided to accept.
AT prayer meeting at his church last
night DR.. Brunson, rendered in a for
NAL way his resignation to take ef-
feet on the last day of this month
After being assured that further ef-
fort to retain him would not avail his
resignation was regretfully accepted.
DR.. Brunson has been the pastor of
the church here for SIX years and is
a popular favorite with all denomina-
tions.

action in closing a part of the Radical
Road.
The board in the first instance or
dered it closed on the petition Of two
interested citizens, neither of whom
or any member of the board taking
the trouble to obtain my wishes or
approach me in any way on the mat
ter, yet they knew L and my brother
were constant users Of the road.
at once, with numerously sign
ed petition, had them to rescind their
action until they could get the law
from their attorney, who they say,
told them that they could not close a
road unless the road had become
useless. If this is law the board has
to abide by it. 1t is possible (but |
hope no) that the board saw fit to
take the word of two men against N.Y.
self and the numerous sig, ers Of the
petition, as TO whether the road had
become useless or not. AS 1 under
stand 1T the Board of County Com
missioners have to take the evidence,
read the law and without any discrim-
ination as to the parties concerned. act
accordingly.
That they have overstepped the
right the law gives them in this case
l am certain; and by this carelessness,
weakness, or whatever you may term
1t, they are making me pay out mon
ey to protect my rights; rights which
they, when they take the oath of Of
lice, are sworn to protect. Whether
they have, according to law and evil
dence, protected myself and the
signers of that petition (an users OF
the road, leave for them to say. 1
say according to their own statement,
published in your paper CItem) OF

"A MeritoriOus Promotion.
sumter.

AT the Annual Conference of the
Methodist church. which convened in
Trinity church, Charleston, last week,
Rev. G. E. Edwards was promoted to
the Presiding Eldership Of the Char
lesion District, which carries with it
the highest honors of the conference.
II carries also a very weighty respon-
sibility and plenty OF hard work as
the district extends from Charleston
TO Savannah, but we feel confident
that Mr.. Edwards will be equal to the
occasion and rise to the full measure
lof responsibility. He breaches his
last sermon here next Sunday and
then he and his most estimable fam
lily will pack up the following week
and move to their new field.
Rev. G.. p. Watson, one of the best
men in the conference and a fine
preacher, has been sent here. Confer
ence could not have sent a better
man.
/ He will move here next week with
his family.-Leader and Vindicator.

THE RADICAL ROAD.
Another Protest Against the ActiOh
of County Board.

Editor Sumter Item:
For the information of the citizens
or Sumter and those who signed the
petition for the Radical Road to con-
tinue open we wish to state: First,
that quite a length of the road in
question is within the city limits and
has been kept up at the citys ex-
pense. and cannot be sold or closed
without the city fathers approval and
signature. Secondly. that If the
''2lcal Road is closed that the city
and county VIII not only be pat to tho
expense Of building 4 road bed. but
viii have 10 eApcnd at least I'VE lun-
dred dollars additional " build d
concrete bridge over the Turkey creek
canal crossing the Graham Roulc-
ward. think this canal bridge will
fall within the city limits. Now are
the taxpayers of the city and county
willing TO stand (for the convenience
of two people) this additional expense
when we consider the fact that our
taxes have been for the present year
and have yet to be increased for city
paving. Let our city fathers go and
examine their interest in the proposed
changes and see if they are willing
to stand for il and have oloead ono
of the prettiest roads leading into
Sumter.
Respectfully,
