ST. JAMES CHURCH NEWS.

The question has been asked sew
eral times lately about the origin of
Christianity on the British Isles. One
answered: 1T was taken there by
St. Paul" Another commended: THE
Church tried to claim that" Which
leaves the waters little muddied.
The truth is that the Church was
at work in Britain very early, and
had houses of worship, and the three
orders Of the ministry bishops,
priests and deacons AS early as $50
A D. the Church Fathers speak of
Britons as subject to Christ ST. AL
ban was put to death because he pro-
tected a Christian minister in the
year 1913 At the Council of Aries
314 A. d. there were present three
bishops, and other ministers from
Briton. Space will not permit
string Of these facts which are his
tory. Robertsons History of the
Christian Church will give the his
tory of this period
Now, it was $50 A. d. when the
missionaries went over from Rome
So We must account for this British
Church some way. How? Who took
the Gospel there? We feel with many
others, that it is most probable that
was directly or indirectly the work
Of mi 10 -
proposed visit to Spain. Clement Of
Rome speaks of Paul as having wis
tied Spain and the uttermost parts
of the West" which phrase as used
in that day would seem to point to
Great Britain.
The writer is very anxious to get
at the truth. Historians have sought
it diligently This scenes the most
probable explanation. If there is
one more probable than this, we de-
sire to know about it. 1t is inter
esting because this is the source OF
one stream of cur Christian trutn,
which was amalgamated with the
other stream some time after $50
A. d.
Let us remember that there was
no such thing as the Roman Catho-
lie Church at that time. THE
Church was One, Holy Catholic
Apostolic" And of course Jerusa-
lem was the mother of all, and as the
Christians were scattered abroad"
they preached the Gospel everywhere.
Some one preached in Britain. St
Paul may have done number of
things that were not written down,
as did his Master. He was very ac-
tive missionary. Fortunately the i'm
press of Christ is clearer than that
of any of His apostles.

IN MEMORY OF OUR SUNDAY
SCHOOL TEACHER

On January 3rd, 1916, our Hea-
venly Father, in His all-wise provi-
dence, took from us our dear friend
and brother, Mr.. r. H. Aston. He
was born Sept 81, 1869 near Demo-
polls, Ala. About the age of 25 he
joined the Second Baptist Church
of Atlanta, Ga, having come there
to make his home. About 16 years
ago, on account of i'll health, he and
wife moved to Austell. For five or
more years he has taught Class No
in the Methodist Church. HIS
gentle and kind disposition, his con-
stancy in friendship and many vir-
tues combined with charity and good
nesses towards all. and in his love
for the work of the Master, makes
us feel sure that we shall one day
see him again, He was a faithful,
loving husband and father, and num-
bered his friends by the score.
Whereas, fully realizing our great
words our heartfelt sympathy;
Therefore, be it resolved:
l. That, though he is absent from
us, his memory still fingers in the
hearts of his friends and loved
ones.
,. That we shall strive to emu
late the lessons of patience, faith
fulness and unselfishness his life has
taught us.
3. That, Glass No. humbly sub
init to the power over which we
have no control. and extend to the
bereaved family our sincere sympa
thy.

tions be sent to the family and 20
