MINISTER'S CONFERENCE.
President Payne PrcSidcs-Rcv. r.. ID.
Caircc Dissatisfied.

The Minister'S Conference met at
the same old place. the Second Bap-
t:st Church, the President, Dr. E i.
PAYNE presiding. Several reports
we're made among them the report
Of the committee on the so-called Good
shepherd brethren. The objection to
this group Of brethren is that they
are not properly organized, neither
are they recognized and yet some OF
our minister's are fellowshipping
them 1t was reported also that the
pastor Of these brethren is an eXclud-
cd member Of one of our city
Churches. which is known to all.
The announcement Of the death OF
Or =. S. Lewis. Of Charlotte, N. C.
Was received with deep regret and the
Conference voted to send a telegram
to the widow and a representative
to attend the funeral on Wednesday.
The death Of DR.. f.. ID. Samuels, OF
New Jersey was announced.
The program committee was called
bu, they made no report.
DR. w. II. Johnson preached to a
packed house at the Fifth Street
Baptist Church last Sunday, at $3.50.
More than 81 800 was raised Jointly
for missions. This is great for our
Lords Kingdom.
Rev. Caffcc was very much dis
pleased with the action OF the Con-
ference, i'll the case reported con-
ccrning DR.. Morris being fellow
shipped by some OF our brethren.
withstanding the opposition of
the white Mcthodists in not allowing
their colored membership standing In
the councils Of their Church, the
Inter Church World Movement is
receiving much attention in our city
and will be discussed next Monday
morning as the order Of the day.
All Of the members and friends Of
the Conference are urged tc be on
time.

THE PASSING AWAY OF n PRo-
GRESSINE AND BUSY YOUNG
WOMAN.

Lvnchburg Na-MiSS Ann Gus
tayus Wilkcrson. one OF Lynchburg $
popular and active Church and race
workers, died February 2S, at her
home, COT Harrison Street. Strong
and lovely in Christian character and
loved by all who knew her, she leaves
many sorrowing hearts among hosts
Of friends.
The loss to the family OF her father
some years ago. added to the lahors
of her young life the necessity Of
helping to provide for the home and
the care Of Il mother. and in this
she recognized the great task life had
thrust upon her. Miss Willlcrson was
appointed to u clerical position in
Richmond, 1903 and served this work
seven years with credit to herself and
was transferred to tho Lynchburg
branch Of the same business until
she entered the Office Of the South
crn Aid Socirty, continuing for five
years till stricken by the illness
which ended her life.
\ long Christian service as II de-
voted and consistent member Of the
Court Street Baptist Church and Il
sympathizcr with all its local and
her a distinction most lovablc be
cause OF her fidelity and courage.
The funeral services were conducted
from this Church, March >. before Il
surging mass Of friends gathered to
pay their last respects to EuSSie'
as she was Familiarity called.

RESOLUTIONS.

l.ynchburE, Va, March >, 1920
Miss Annie GuSSic WilkcrSOn, who
was secretary and stcnographcr Of
the l.ynchhurE district of the South
crn Aid Insurance Company departed
this life Saturday might February 2S
at her late residence, 6oi Harrison
Street. The fo lowing resolutions
were adopted by the agent force:
Whereas, She has been an active
and faithful clerk for the company
for more than five years and doing
all that was in her power ;or the
success thereof until she was called
to etcrlity's shore leaving nine
agents and Il superintendent to share
the sad hcrcavemcnls with the fami Y
and friends. But with the hope that
though seen no longer, she may be
; Il miniStcring angel in our oilicc. BE
II ever borne in mind that there is
only one true source Of our conSOla-
ton that We shall meet GuSSir. whom
We loved. in another and a better
world, where the weary are at rest.
and,
Whereas. To the family be it said
alas how fresh in our memory is the
recollection OF the lovclinrSS and the
innoccncy Of the departed. All that
was mortal is changed now, and
clouded forever, but how great is
yours and our comfort in the we'll
grounded assurance that the Good
Shepherd who cares for His flock has
taken the gentle lamb to His fold.
And yet so weak and inefficient is all
human consolation that we scarcely
know how to express the deep sense
we have Of the heavy stroke under
which you are Frustrated.
And, Whereas. To the mother be it
said, your daughter has gone to Him
who Says. Suffer little children to
come unto me- tand We know not
how soon our time may Gomez Yours
indeed is a sad bereavement but we
doubt not from your strong faith in
Him who does all things we'll that
you will he sustained and comfortcd
by your daughters. "Mcct' me there
for I rest in peace"
The recollection OF her. who has
been so sorviccablc to this community
and who has 50 lately departed must
be so full Of painful regret that We
will not dwell on this side Of the
picture but rather look to its higher
aspect i'm the hope that she has gone
!. W a htppltl SljIltl L anu 'ilIl "hltl
is lost to us is her unspcakahlc gain.
o that We may all meet in that bright
and happier world, where sorrow and
sin and suffering are alike unknown.
Servant Of God, well done,
Thy glorious warfarcs past,
The battle fought. the race is won
And thou art crowned at last"
BE 1t Resolved That copy of
those resolutions be given to the
family and one be sent to Christian
Appeal for publication.
That a higher than human power
may console and support the hcrcaved
ones under this heavy stroke. is the
earnest prayer Of the Agent Force and
Superintendent Of the Southern Aid
Society Of Virginia.
