The Services at the Baptist Church

Religious services have been held at the Baptist Church for the past week, and are still in progress. Rev. W. H. Strickland, of Anderson, came down Wednesday to assist the pastor, and has preached several sermons since. His sermons on "blind Bartimeus," "Paul before Felix," "Dives and Lazarus," "Why will ye die?" were very fine. Without any special gift of oratory, his originality, plainness of speech and aptness of illustration make him a very interesting and attractive preacher. And he preaches the gospel, pure and simple. His work here has produced gratifying results. There have been several additions to the Church, and the entire membership have been benefited. The services will be continued until Thursday. Preaching at 4 o'clock P. M., and at night.
