The Rev. B. Earl Parker of Grace Metlhodist Episcopal church, Hartford City preached at the First Methodist Episcopal church of this city last night He proved to be more than a strong preacher. His words were eloquent, and his theme Important. It was a great sermon indeed. He stated that he was the great-grandson of the Rev. T. W. Connelly, a local preacher of note in the early days, and that he had come into possession of the library once owned by Mr. Connelly. In an old book he had found the bare outline of a sermon and that outline he would follow in the evening sermon. His text was, “I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ for it is the power of God unto salvation unto every one that believeth.” —Bluffton Banner.
