DR.. W. F. Lovelaee and he was going
to Little Rock as auditor to see il well
done. he was in company with Prof.
W. T. Daniels, the young business man
and hustler. I was delighted to see
them all.
Now next found me in Beaumont. I
reached here almost four hours late.
but found at midnight, DR.. G. B. Charl-
ton, the tooth dentist doctor at the
stable awaiting my arrival, aceompa-
MED By James Roland, one Of the
busiest young men in town. They were
there in a real automobile car wagon
carriage to escort me and all my trunks
out to the home Of Dr.. Charlton. Soon
I was there, and Mrs. Charlton had
something for me to send into my
eternity. I enjoyed il, talked with
them until about 2 o'colck, then went
to the land of Nod, feeling myself
nearer my eternal home.
DR.. Charlton, is Just like an old shoe,
but busy man. He is one of the best
in this country, and believe me when
I tell you he is just kept busy all the
time putting half soles on teeth. I
have told you about him his wife and
his work and his work before. Will
not tell you the same thing over again.
They have two fine little girls, and are
going by the help Of God, educate
them. So 1 must tell you about what
1 am doing here and take my seat.
1 am here seeing Bishop William
Decker johnson, d. D., hold q confer
enee, and he is what I truly call
man. But let me pause here with
bowed head, for death has taken from
rs another great man, Bishop Evans
Tyree, d. D., NJ. D., Of Nashville,
Tenn. I am told that Saturday morn
ing, November Is, the messenger
knocked at his door, and at am here
to take you home" Bishop Tyree
folded his arms and said, "I am ready
to 60 with you," and sailed Of, to
return to us no more. He was a great
man, from a slave to the highest place
in his church, and as a bishop he made
good. He was one of the best preach
ers in the country, and truly friend
to man. His hand was ever outstretehed
to his fellows, and he made his con-
tribution to the race and to the world.
Bishop Tyree has been complaining
for some time. He had'his baggage all
ready, and when the messenger came,
he had only to step on board and 60 on
home. desire to extend sympathy to
his widow, Mrs. Ellen Tyree, his
daughter, his two sons and grand
daughter. Some day You, shall 60 to
him, and what a meeting that will be.
he has gone to join those who left
ahead Of him
Bishop johnson is indeed a remark
able character, and he is going to be
one Of the great bishops He is going
right into the hearts Of men. In his
dealing with men, I note that it is not
so much ri" but we. "we are work
ers together for God" He knows men
and knows how to deal with them. 1
am proud of his start. I shall have
more to say about him next He has
gone to the funeral Of Bishop Tyree.
