NOTES BY THE WAYSIDE. BY REV. RICHARD CARROLL. As scheduled I spent Sunday with Dr. C. T. Walker in Augus ta, Ga. X preached at ll a. m. in his new church to a great con gregation. At 4:150 p. m. I lectur ed to what Dr. Walker called a "very representative audience" lawyers, doctors, business men and people who represented everything. The mon voted unanimously that they enjoyed the lecture and were willing to hear it again but I was not willing to stay longer in Augus ta. I was tired and had not much more physical force to spare. Dr. Walker's congrega tion is not like the average Geor gia congregation I met. At ll a. m. the people assembled for preaching; at 8 p. m. the congre gation had assembled ?or night services, and at 9:30 theoenedic tion was pronounced and the peo ple were going home. That is 9:30 by standard time. I was in Atlanta on two occas ions when I began preaching at 10 o'clock by South Carolina time and 9 o'clock by Central time There are few men that have ser vices like Dr. Walker-on time. In South Carolina I noted the promptness of Dr. N. C. Nix of Orangeburg, Rev. A. R. Bacote Society Hill and Rev. James Kirk land of Newberry, and some months ago I preached for Dr. J. J. Durham in Columbia. He believes in ''Redeeming time" Dr. Walker and his congrega tion worshipper^ji the Sunday school rooini??reiit church. This part^? ?jiitf capacity of l.OOOj K auditorium, when ?mm1 seat 2500. Thirty?

This great man deserves such a house of j worship, for he is a great, great i gospel preacher-a deep preach er. His sermons are hitrh as heaven, deep as hell, broad as the I earth-for they save unto the ut most them that believe. I am j always delighted to visit this, my old friends and his congregation j or to be in his company. The .collection raised and given me af- j " ter my lecture to Men Only was certainly a surprise to me. It was more than I expected. The men gave every dollar he ask for and I was more than pleased I can never forget when visiting Au gusta that great scholar and teacher, that unselfish, useful citizen that serves his day and generation well, the Rev. Silas X. Flovd. I asked a prominent citizen "who are the leading and first citizens of Augusta?" This man is rot j member of Dr. Wal ker's cbir ch. hut is a prominent ' professionr ma/j, and his answer was "Dr. C T. Walker and Rev. Silas V Floyd are the first citi zen ? of Augusta." Dr. vV??.Ker owe- i .uch of his great success, bc in Augusta and elsewhere irPAmerica. to his armor bearer, Silas X. Floyd. Rev. Floyd is to Dr. Walker what Emmett J. Scott is to Dr. Booker T. Washington. In the audience I recognized Col. Judson W. Lyoni, Prof. J. L. White, Prof. P. H. Craig, several minis ters of the gospel and other pro minent citizens. It is known that Georgia has more ' 'Colonels' ' white and colored, than any other state in the South. There was colonel Wilkerson who has the distinction of being the only colored steam boat captain in the city, having had charge of dif ferent steam boats running be tween Augusta and Savannah for more than 18 years- CoJ^Wilker son drove me everywhe^pSunday >.nd Monday brought me to the train in his fine touring car. This genial gentleman took delight in taking me around. Miss Annie Adams accompanied me around on all my trips except to the meeting for Men Only. I stop t. d while in Augusta with her broti.er-in-law, Dr. C. S. Carr who married Miss Annie's sister, Nell. Both of these young ladies lived at one time with the writer several years ago, and take de light iii looking after my welfare No chinches visited me in the home, only one large mosquito paid me a call aud I murdered him. The bed was roomy and comfortable. Callis, Mrs. Carr's brother took pleasure in waiting on me. Dr. Carr was full of good cheer and was anxious for his family to contribute to my happiness and comfort. What a fine garden they have, V; etable were plentiful, the coft..^ was fine and the beef steaks* and roasts were juicy. New pota toes and plenty of cake and lots of things were put on the Vft^i'' which I did]notIeat. 4 Washington St. Columbia PHONK SQSG. HOMES ON ZASY TERMS COLLECTIONS A SPECIALTY L. A.
