brief history of this colored church,

lated by the pastor. as follows: In
July. 1861. few of lions travellers met
in a prayer-meeting capacity and de-
cided to keep up the old Baptist wor-
ship, which they had so long and so
we'll enjoyed in Fredericksburg. Va.
and vicinity. This congregation grew
rapidly, and in 1863 organized Sunday
and day school in Jackson's school
house. Delaware avenue and L street
southwest. and there remained until
1857. when they bought Simpsons old
feed store. which they remodeled forty
seven years ago. and have since built
two additional houses of worship.
Rev. Walker. the founder and first
pastor. bought the lot. Rev. Gibbons
was called November. 1868. The fol-
lowing years. 1669-70. he dedicated the

The old plant, 1t is said, was fur from
filling the bill for such large build

months ago an appeal for funds with
which to put in the new plant was
started and the limit of cost was fixed
at s1.i23.27. Enough of this amount
has been contributed to insure the

BAPTISTS RAISE $18O0OO
FOR MISSION BOARD DEBT
Campaign Completed in Two Months of Vigorous
Effort, Giving Demonstration of Mis-
sionary Interest.

aJuthern Baptists have Just given a
remarkable demonstration. II is pointed
uut, nf missionary interest by raising, in
.ccord time. s1s0.o0o to pay off the in
Gebtedness o: the foreign mission board.
A little over tw o months ago a vigorous
campaign to this end was begun. and
the executive committee of the board
has just announced it's successful COM
pletion. Commenting on the remark
able achievement. the committee says:
Surely God was in this movement.
He gave the spirit of liberality to the
churches and guided in unmistakable
ways. Upon Him we have relied and
He has been very present help.
Our people have been very sacrificial
in this time of need. They rallied round
the standard and were willing in the
day Of Gods power. We have a great
God and a great brotherhood.
This campaign demonstrated that
foreign missions are very close to the
hearts of southern Baptists. They love
the lost world and. like their Master
are ready to suffer for it.
1t also gave us new sense of solid
arity. From Maryland to Texas, and
from Missouri to Florida, our hearts
beat ~ one. Men and women, preachers
and laymen. young and old, rich and
poor. combined their energies to accom-
plish this task.

Pastoral leadership throughout the
entire south never showed to better ad-
vantage than in these past two months.
Hundreds of pastors were examples to
the flock in giving and led their
churches to do nobly.
The very effective help of state sec
retaries and boards is gratefully ac-
knowiedged These men of RESPONSE
bility and influence took this burden as
their own. Their cooperation with the
foreign board has achieved success. We
thank God upon the remembrance of
their practical sympathy and invalua-
BILE help.
The UNCONVENTIONAL papers were our
main dependence for publicity Columns
of their space were gratuitously de-
voted to our appeals. By able and
earnest editorials they laid this cause
heavily upon the consciences of the
people.
The lovable and loyal women have
labored with US in the gospel. They
never fail. Throughout the campaign
they were our joy and inspiration"
With regard to the future administra-
ton OF the boards affairs the commit
tee says:
The board pledges itself to the strict
est economy consistent with efficiency,
and purposes to keep the expenditures
OF this year within those of last year.
In turn, the board requests the churches
to supply it with funds systematically
In order that interest may be saved and
debt avoided"
