to the Ri. Rev. L. S. Ives. the
bishop Of North Carolina, then, in
1886.
Some eighteen or twenty years
later the addition of the present
tower for the bell and some few
minor changes were made. This
was in 1852. Down the hillock on
which the church was erected there
was also little Sunday school
house for the children, and there
are those living today in Flat
Rock who remember the days
when they attended there and
climbed the hill afterward for
church service. No remains OF
the building they held Sunday
school in are in existance today.
Special pews were also in the
church for the servants use.
The structure itself is a copy Of
the old English rural churches or
chapels, and all its beams and
arches are of native hardwood. A
single glance at them tells one
that stalwart folk were the build
ers, and it is easy to see that they
must have been quite capable of
coping with any dangers that
might have. confronted them. Dan
gers there must have been too, for
sturdy front doors were barred
by stout timber, and all undesired
beings, whether human or animal,
would have had a rather difficult
time entering unless the worship
pers so wished.
In the first decade of the .twen-
tieth century an organ chamber
was put in. tho the organ had been
there nearly. quarter of a CEN
tury before the installation of the
chamber. This addition complet-
ed the outline of the present-day
church.

Familiarity called Jerusalem Walk.
When Count de Choiseul decided
to sell his land, he reserved the
right, in his deed. to let the people
of the congregation of the church
walk over the strip of land TO
church services. This was Jeru-
salem Walk, and it was used thus
for many years. However, a re-
cent. lawsuit between the present
and former owners OF the Seiglin&
place decided that the trail might
no longer be used thus publicly by
those walking to church. because
the privilege in Cheiseul's deed
was only temporary.
The following intimate incident
is told of Susan Baring's arrival
at church. She was very strong
minded woman, and seemed to Eule

PUBLIC WORKS
HERE TO MEAN
JOBS FOR 1900
ST, 100000 Federal Aided
Program Is Mapped
in County.

First surveys and preliminary
arrangements for a 81, 100000 i'm
provement program in Marion
county, made possible by federal
emergency loan were started today
under direction of county officials.
Employment was given sixty-six
workers this morning on the pre-
lininary details, although the total
persons employed before completion
of the project will reach 1900, it
was said.
The program includes con-
struction and improvement of los
miles of county roads and building
of seven bridges. The road building
program includes work on a belt
highway system around the city,
linking Eighty sixth street, the
Dandy trail, Harding street road,
High School road, Thompson road,
Fl. Harrison road and the Hague
road.
The county will be required TO re-
pay 70 per cent of the loan, with
the federal government making an
outright grant of the remainder.
Funds, however, will not be avail
able until approval of the project
by a state administrator, who will
be appointed as a part of the organ
ization for government loans for
public works, created by recent act
of congress.
Approximately one and one half
years will be required to complete
the program, with actual construc-
ton work not starting until spring.
Surveying and other preliminary
work will require about two months,
it is estimated.
An important part of the pro-
gram will be the construction of a
West Sixteenth street bridge over
Fall creek, at an estimated cost of
$4,000. The bridge will be an i'm
portant link in the Sixteenth street
widening program to provide a
