Mrs. NJ. NJ. Kinard and Mrs.
Mary Joost, Of Salisbury, N. c., are
spending ten DAYS or two weeks at
the Alexander House, having come
over to Walhalla to attend to mat
ters OF business. These ladies are
pleasantly remembered by many OF
our people as daughters Of TIE late
Capt. and Mrs. c. f. Seeba, who are
among the original settlers Of Wal
halla, they having come to this Sec
ton when this part Of South Caro-
lima was wilderness. Since the
death
Joost. Mrs. Joost has made her home
with Rev. and Mrs. Kinard. at Sails
bury. Rev. Kinard Is one of the
most prominent ministers of the
Lutheran church, and since the re-
cent merging Of the three synodical
bodies of the great Lutheran church
he has been signally honored by the
general body, being at the head of
several committees of the united
church. During the sessions of the
great merger conference in New
York he was one Of the FIVE, leaders
In the Lutheran church in the United
States who were invited to speak in
the Hippodrome, his audience on
this occasion numbering more than
five thousand. He was the recog-
niZed leader in the Southern church
prior to the merging of the three
Lutheran bodies, and since that
great event he has occupied place
in the Lutheran church OF the
United States quite as prominent as
that which he occupied in the
Lutheran church South We regret
exceedingly that Mr.. Kinard found
1T impossible to accompany his wife
and sister to Walhalla at this time,
for he is always most welcome
visitor here. He is, and has been
for number of years, pastor Of st.
Johns Lutheran church of Salisbury,
the greatest and most influential
Lutheran church and congregation
in North Carolina. The first synod
OF the Lutheran church was organ
lied In this church 103 years ago,
and the gro1nd on which the church
stands was decided to the congrega-
ton by the King Of England. The
editor Of The Courier has for many
years held Rev. Mr.. Kinard in high
esteem, having as a child known
him when he was student in New
berry College, prior to his active
work as minister in the Lutheran
church, and having later attended
his church in the city Of Columbia.
With hosts Of other friends through
out the State we have, with no small
degree OF satisfaction, followed him
wherever he has gone in his great
work for the church and the Master,
and NOTED the wonderful success
that has almost uniformly crowned
his efforts
