Lewis was his very close and dependable friend. Among other ministers t a king part were Rev. W. E. Starks, pastor of New Liberty Baptist Church; Rev. V. Me Lawler, Rev. L. S. Gaston, and Dr,. H. T. Toliver, state moderator of the Baptist Convention, including Rev. baugh, “Rev: M,,S - McGUIRE James A. Williams and Rev. Otis Nance.

Lee, David Williams, John Smith, Silas Johnson, Jerome Hawkins and John Tyler. Fifteen or more women were flower girls. Deacons and trustees of the church served as honorary pall bearers. Rendering efficient service was the Peoples Funeral Home with B. J. Jackson, Mrs. Lula D. Hinton and Joseph Shelter in charge of this overflow audience. Speaking of f unerals, there have been persons we know well, sometimes in our own neighborhood to die, and are dead and buried before we know it. I must confess, the “Mr.” and I were leaving Corinthian to go view the remains of Mother Ratcliff when we were informed the funeral was the day

before.

MEMBERS OF NEW BETHEL Baptist Church welcomed back their pastor, Dr. F. Benjamin Davis, after a brief illness. According to his remarks to the congregation, he had been a pretty sick man. He really did not preach

like one last Sunday.

He spoke a burning message

from Deuteronomy (5:4-5: “Hear O Israel, the Lord Our God Is One God.” Many seem to think

he is more than one Lord. It was announced Sunday, March

19, immediately after morning worship the church will take a bus to Bloomington to worship with Second Baptist Church on their 98th Anniversary. Rev. E. D. Butler is pastor. Friends are in-
