Bamberg Banking Company Now Cap.
italized at $2OO,OOO.OO.

On January 18th the capital stock
of the Bamberg Banking company
was formally increased from $751;
900 to 100000. The necessary ac-
tion to increase the capital stock OF
the bank was taken some time ago.
1t is understood that all of the stock
was sold several months ago, in fact
there was demand for more stock
than the increase called for.
The capitalization of the bank at
100000 makes the Bamberg Bank
ing company one of the largest as
well as strongest financial institutions
in the southern part of South Carroll
ma. This bank is the oldest institu-
tion in Bamberg county. 1t was es-
tablished even years before there
was a bank in Barnwell, which was
then the county seat of old Barnwell
county, the territory of which in
cluded all of Bamberg county.

Former Bamberg Pastor Leaves West
minister ON Account of Health.
We regret to learn that Pastor W.
R. Mcmillan has been compelled by
i'll health to resign at Westminster,
where he has served faithfully for
nearly three years. The church in
accepting his resignation adopted
resolutions expressing their appre-
citation of Bro. Mcmillan, and their
sympathetic interest in his health.
They also decided to pay him $50 a
month for six months with the ex-
press provision that if his health is
still impaired at the end of this time,
they may take up the matter again
and continue his support still further.
This is a beautiful and gracious thing
for the Westminster saints to do, and
we are sure that their kindness will
make it easier for Bro. Mcmillan to
regain his health. We join in their
prayers for his early restoration.
