In Memory of Mr. John S. Led
better.

The Methodist Sunday school at
this place on Sunday, May 14th, de-
voted the Sunday school hour as
memorial to the late Mr.. John S.
Ledbetter, who had been its super.
lntendent for twenty-three years.
The present superintendent, Mr..
Fred W.. Bynum, called on various
teachers present 10 make short
talk about the influence that they
felt Mr. John S. Ledbetter had ex
erted in the Sunday school and in
this community. The exercises were
unique in that the superintendent
did not let anyone know in advance
on whom he was going to call and
it was /; beautiful tribute to the
memory of Mr. Ledbetter that so
many OF his friends could speak SO
beautifully about his life. At the
conclusion of the exercises the fol
lowing resolutions of respect were
adopted by the Sunday school by a
rising vote:
Resolutions of Respect.
Whereas it has pleased Almighty
God in the exercise of His infinite
wisdom, to take from our midst our
beloved brother and superintendent,
John Steele Ledbetter; Therefore be
it,
Resolved, First, That in his death
the Rockingham Sunday school and
each and every member of it has
sustained an irreparable loss and
deep personal bereavement.
Resolved Second, That we desire to
express our appreciation of the fact
that for the twenty-three years dur
ing which he went out and in
among us as our superintendent,
this Sunday school was near to his
heart. His love for it and especial
ly the children who composed it
was a passion with him. Like the
Master whom he served so well, he
took them in his arms and blessed
them. We feel that his life and SER
vice has been a benediction and that
the impress of his life will linger
long among those who had the hap
piness to know and love him.
Resolved Third, That these reso-
buttons be spread upon the minutes
and copy be sent to the Post-Dis-
patch with the request to publish.
