The Boavordam Baptist Association I
Couveoed nt tho Soncca Baptist ohuroh
on Tuesday, 8th instant. A largo mun- !
bor of dologatos woro present from 201
churches in tho association.
Besides tho dologatos present tho fol
lowing visiting brethren woro on hand:
T. M. Bniloy, D. D., of Oroonvillo, rep.
resenting Stato Mission?; M. M. Hiloy,
1). 1)., President of Groonvillo Fonialo
Oollogo; A. McA. Pittman, editor of tho
South Carolina 1 ia pl isl ; J. L. Vass, Su
porintondout of Connio Maxwoll Or
phanage, of Qroonwood.
Many of tho first mon of tho Baptist |
ohurchos of Oconoo county woro in at
tendance, among whom woro Uovs. .J. M.
Sanders, J. II. Stono, J. H. Karlo. 1). W.
Iiiott, P. J. Virruiiiion, ll. M. Allon and
A. P. Marett, and ?p?to a largo number
of prominent laymen.
Tho introductory sermon was preached
in an impressive way hy Kev. P. J. Vf
million from tho 24th vorso of tho 20th
chantor ol Acts.
Tlio association was organized hy tho
unanimous election of tho following ofll
cors: Hov. D. W. liiott, Moderator; J.
W. Sholor, Clerk; J. W. Stribling, Trea
surer,
1?OV..D. W. Hiott oxtondod a wolcomo
to tho body in a short address, which
was responded to by Hov. A. McA. Pitt
mann.
Kook Hill church, located near Knox's
Bridge, on Tugnloo river, was admitted
to membership in tho association.
Tho Coinmittco on Homo Missio
made its report through Its chairman,
M. C. Barton. Thoro was an interesting
discussion on tho roport by Brothren M.
C. Harton, M. M. Hiloy, A. McA. Pitt
man and T. M. Hailoy.
Tho committee on tho support of indi
gent and worn-out minis! ei s was mado I
by Hov. J. H. Karlo. This report brought
out an interesting and feeling discussion [
as tho namo of tho beloved A. W. Mc-1
(?ullin, of this county, was moutioucd.
.Tho body requested Bro. Karlo to lead
in prayor, invoking God's richest bless
ing on this honored minister, after
which a collection was voluntarily raised
for him.
There was preaching at night by Hov.
M. M. Hiloy, D. 1).

congregation in a half-hour devotional
sorvice.
A call was mado for a repost from tho
committee on tho Connio Maxwoll Or
phanage. Tho chairman of tho commit
too stated that tho committoo had failed
to agrco on a report and suggested that
a roport bo dispensed with, and that tho
subject ho considered by tho body. Tho
failure of tho committoo to ngroo upon a
roport arose from tho division of tho
churches in tho Stato over tho fitness of
tho superintendent to lill that position.
This light ?.ns been in progross for
throe years, consequent upon serious
charges mado against tho superintondont.
It does not sooin wiso that these matters
should bo kopt from tho great masses of J
tho d?nomination.
J. li, Vass addressed tho association
upon tho Orphanage and it was received
in a less enthusiastic spirit than any
subject. Dr. Vass asked for a contribu
tion and secured only n small ono.

man in Furman University, notas a gift
to tho recipiont, but as a loan, tobo re
paid aftor tho course shall havo boon
oomplotod. At tho end o? a two hours'
discussion Mr. Sholor's ?doa provailed.
Tho collection of tho funds, tho selection
of tho young man, Ac., W?VR placed in
tho hands of tho oxecutivo committoo of
tho association.
Then carno tho roport of tho Commit
tee on Stato Missions, mado by Hov. J.
H. Stono, who addressed tho body, aftor
which T. M. Bailoy addrossod the con
gregation in an hour's interesting and
