DAVID’S SHEPHERD.
I often think, children, said Grand
mother, that David was giving us in
the 23d Psalm a lesson from his own
experience.
From his youth, he had tended his
father’s flocks. With his shepherd’s
crook in hand he daily led them to
quie<t valleys lx ,n g warmly sheltered
between rocky cliffs where the grass
grew greenest and the waters flowed
softly. There, as the young lambs
rested, their boyish keeper threw
himself beside them and sent the
wild music of his reed-pipe echoing
against the rocks and hills beyond.
But sometimes as he played, his flock
wandered to the fresher green, grow
ing on some hillside; straying far
ther and tempted to higher hills
where his voice could not reach them.
Suddenly aroused, the young shep
herd sought his wayward sheep, call
ing each by name.
“You don’t mean he named each
one of his flock ?’’ asked Frank.
“Yes, the Eastern Shepherds do so
still; and you might have heard
David calling to Acbsa, Zebina, Ed
na, or gently chiding Zeba, and Azu
ba, and Ashur, as with his crook he
turned them back into the old paths,
sometimes taking a feeble lamb in
his arms and tenderly folding his
cloak around it.
Many a time had he driven to its
den some prowling wolf of sly leop
ard. The stout oak club was his only
weapon. A well aimed blow from
its head heavy with nails had once
vanquished a hungry bear ere it
seized his best lamb for a dainty
meal. And when onfe were foolish
than the rest had ventured farther
into forbidden paths,—-even to the
gorges of Kedron—and a fierce lion
rushod upon it from the reeds and
tnickest, the' youth
heard only the terrified cry of his
sheep, and taking the lion by the
beard,dealt with supernatural strength
a blow which killed the beast.
Thus David cared for his
sheep, and in after years when he
had learned how weak, and sinful,
and helpless, his own heart was; he
loved to think of God as his Shep
herd watching, chiding, punishing,
and at last guiding him safely into
his fold.
He remembered the days of his
youth when in the green pastures
and beside the still waters of Gods
love, he had dwelt, quietly watching
his fathers flocks. There the proph.
et found him, poured on his head the
annotating oil and hailed him King
of Israel. Then the spirit the
Lord came u, n David, and soon his
simple reed-pipe was exchanged for
the harp which rang out so sweetly
that they called him to strike its
chords in the royal palace and
soothe to peace the evil spirit in
King Saul.
But the armies of the Philistines
were encamped against Israel, and
the King with his hosts went out to
meet them. Gladly David returned
to his flocks at Bethlehem, but not
long was permitted to remain in his
peaceful home. His brothers fought
with the King and the father would
know of the health of his soldier-boys.
David must go up to enquire,
and take withal a little present
something from home ; ten loaves of
bread and an ephah of parched corn.
Doubtless the mothers heart was
sad and tears fell as she baked the
loaves and parched the corn, praying
that Jehovah would preserve alive her
absent sons.
Sounds of the bleating of his be
loved sheep lingered in Davids cars
as he went on his way towards the
camp. His shepherd crook he left
behind, but the sling of his boyish
days hung at his side. As he neared
the camp, he saw the giant form of
Goliath, heard him boasting, and his
soul flamed with indignation that no
one dared stand for God’s cause
against the heathen. His questions
brought him only mocking answers
from his brothers; warnings from the
people. But he announced his in
tention to fight the Philisistine giant,
saying calmly:
“The Lord that delivered me out
of the paw of the bear, he will de
liver me out of the hand of this Phil
istine.”
His trust was not in vain. Choos
ing five smooth stones from the brook
he advanced to meet the giant. “I
come said he in the name of the
Lord of Hosts. And all this assem
bly shall know that the Lord saveth
not with sword or spear—the battle
is the Lords.” And with his sling
directed by strength lent from God,
he sent a stone deep into the brain
of that enemy of God’s people.
Then again they called the trium
phant youth to dwell in the palace,
honored above all.
Harp in hand he played there for
King Saul, but sweetest music could
not quiet the mad king. Once and
again, full of the evil spirit, he hurled
his javelin at the inspired harper.
“There is but a step between me
and death” said David to his beloved
Johnathan. But God was in that
step, and nO arrow from Saul could
harm him.
Months of trial followed, when
David fled before his enemies and in
the wilds of Judah’s mountains, hid
from the pursuing King. Still the
great Shepherd watched over and
protected him, vanquished all his
foes, and raised him, at last, to Isra
els throne.
Then David sinned. He wandered
far from the green pastures even to
the dark mountains of wickedness;
but even there the Shepherd sought
his sheep, leading him back with sor
rows and punishment, until in deep
repentance and humble gratitude the
wanderer cried—“He restoreth my
soul, he leadeth me in the paths of
righteousness for his name’s sake.”
But deep trouble came—his sor
row of sorrows, more bitter than
death; when his beloved Son Abso
lom turned against him and gave up
his poor-life in wicked rebellion.
Then indeed David leaned hard on
God’s love and mercy —the rod and
staff of his good Shepherd. God
heard his cry; the bleating of his
sorely wounded sheep, and tenderly,
in his everlasting arms he lifted him
above all sorrow into the bosom of
his love.
Henceforward, David dwelt se
cure and fearless, “Yea, said he
though I walk through the valley of
the shadow of death, I will fear no
evil; for thou art with me; thy rod
and thy staff they comfort me.”
And then looking with prophetic
eye to his glorious reign and the eom
t ij.l?i^trate ,< , q ”‘i'
“Surely goodness and mercy shall
follow me all the days of my life :
and I will dwell in the house of the
Lord forever.” H. C. C.

The brethren at Dawson are re
joiced that the Convention decided
to hold its next annual meeting with
their church. They promise to give
a cordial welcome and a royal enter
tainment.
We regret to note that Dr. J. M.
Brattain, pastor of the Central
church in Atlanta has been confined
to hist room with Lagrippe the past
week. He is better and has re
sumed his active duties.
Rev. E. V. Baldy, pastor of the
church at Cuthbert, aided by Rev.
R. T. Smith, of Anniston, Ala., is
holding a series of protracted meet
ings with his church. We hope
their efforts will he abundantly
blessed.
The many friends of Dr. Robt. J.
Willingham, now the beloved pastor
of the First Church at Memphis,
Tenn., will be glad to know of his
being so blessed in his new field of
labor. He has been conducting a
gracious revival, which ended with
sixty acquisitions to the membership
of his church. He will be present at
the session of the convention.
The readers of the Index are in
debted to our good brother, Rev. B.
D. Ragsdale, for the admirable re
port of the proceedings of the State
Convention in our last issue. In the
pressure upon us we omitted to make
this statement last week. Brother
Ragsdale is now pastor of the
churches at Decatur and Lithonia and
is doing a good work in his new
field.
After dedicating his new church at
Dawson, the pastor enters with
increased zeal upon thfe work of
bringing souls to Christ. The News
says: Rev. W. H. Patterson inaugur
ated a series of services at the Bap
tist church last Sunday. There will
be two services a day for an indefi
nite time. Mr. Patterson, who is
himself one of the best men ever in
Dawson, expects the church members
to be fully aroused to the importance
of the work and give their active aid
to the cause.
• THE CHRISTIAN INDEX: THURSDAY APRIL 21. 1892.
Bro. J. p/Payne of the church at
Shellman,, writes that the church is

gifted young pastor, called by the
Baptist church of this place on
Tuesday of last week, has accepted,
conditional upon being released by
his present charges, and he will
preach his first sermon here next
Sunday. Mr. O’Kelly delighted his
hearers upon Iris first visit, and he
will have a full congregation next
Sunday. The church is being warm

The Macon Telegraph says: Ina
talk with Dr. Nunnally
the Telegraph learned that Rev. J.
D. Chapman, a prominent minister of
Milledgeville, will preach the regular
missionary sermon to the Mercer
boys at the comming commencement.
Dr. Chapman is well known to the
Baptist of Macon, and his sermon
will be listened to with great inter
est. On the night of the Junior ora
torical contcst,the Sophomore medals
will be delivered by Mr. Robert
Hodges, a well known young lawyer
of thia city. When it was proposed
to ask Mr. Hodges to deliver the
medals, the college boys greeted the
proposition with great enthusiasm.
Mr. Hodges is. a graduate of Mercer
and he still takes a great interest in
the boys. He was a member of the
Phi Delta Theta Society while at
Mercer and was an enthusiastic fra
ternity worker, being a member of
the Phi Delta Theta fraternity.
We publish the following clippings
from the Columbus morning paper:
The sounding board was deeply
shocked yesterday, not by a vague
rumor, but by actual words which
reached it from the Broad street
sidewalk. There was a good man
standing on the street talking to sev
eral companions. That man is a
leading light in one of the Columbus
churches. As an exhorter and a
leader in prayer this good man has
no superior. His touching appeals
to the ungodly to forsake their evil
ways and turn into the paths of
righteousness, frequently bring tears
into the eyes of those who hear his
eloquent words, and fill them with a
great sorrow, because they are not so
good as their virtuous brother. While
this pious Christian man was conver
sing with his friends he had his back
turned to the street, and one of those
watering carts that sprinkle and al
lay the dust came by, and just as it
reached the walking example of
piety the driver pressed the crank
and a young Niagara Falls burst in
to action and wetted his trousers and
took the shine off his shoes. Then
the words that the pious brother
used were not good words; they
were plentiful, an flowed like the
Chattahoochee at its highest; they
tumbled over each, other like a cata
ract, and among them all there was
not one Sunday-school expression.
One of those ancient pirates who
used cuss words as a science would
have committed suicide from envy if
he could have heard that good man
talk. Suddenly the deyout Chris
tian saw one of the members of his
own church coming along, and he
changed his cuss words into mild ex
pressions of disapproval and
looked as innocent as on Sun
days and at prayer meeting.
Any man who could show such
self-control as that man did when die
saw his brother church member must
be a good man, and perfectly worthy
to be made an example of to be fol
lowed by less virtuous men.—Colum
buz Enq. Sun Apviv-dOth, 1892. »
A little incident, somewhat exag
gerated in detail and highly colored,
which was mentioned in Sunday’s lo
cal, appers to have been regarded by
some of our friends as tending to re
flect derisively upon religious pro
fessions. Such an interpretation is
to be regretted, and was not imag
ined, else it should not have appear
ed. The coloring of an ordinary
street incident was merely a touch of
fancy, with no animus in it, and cer
tainly no intention to wound the sen
sibilities of any one, or to be regard
ed as derogatory to Christianity.—
Columbus Enquirer-Sun April 12th,
1892.
CoLUMBup, Ga., April 12, 1892.
Col. B. IE Richardson:
Dear Sir :—We, as your fellow-
Christians, and as far as we can,
thrusting out of sight a spirit of con
troversy, ask you to join us in the de
fense of Christian manhood, by giv
ing publicity to the three sub-joined
propositions relative to the “good
man” referred to in an article of your
Sunday morning’s issue. We call
attention to a streak of human nature
common to Christian bodies as well
as to all organizations of honorable
men, which repels with indignation
any attempt to present-“'»ne of their
leading lights” bn the most public
streets, in the character of Prince of
Black Guards and Hypocrite. In
justice to the Christian churches of
this city we urgently request that
you should say: That “a good man”
refered to in your Sunday’s issue,un
der the caption, The Sounding Board,
is not a “leading light in one of the
Columbus churches,” and that he is
not an “exhorter and leader,” in
prayer and is never “heard in
one of the churches of this city
appealing to the ungodly to for
sake their evil ways and turn
into the paths of righteousness,” and
has no other prominency as a church
man, if he be one at all, than being a
churchman forgetful of his vows.
We are, very respectfully,
C. E. Estes, N. P. Banks,
W. F. Tigner, Wm. C. Pease,
R. M. Kirvin, T. J. Pearce,
R. A. Carson, C. D. Hurt,
A. V. Boatkite, E. Philips,
J. B. Tarver, C. H. Herring.
We referred to this matter yester
day stating that the incident was
somewhat “exaggerated in detail and
highly colored.” The following
statement from the writer of “Sound
ing Board” fully affirms the proposi
tion above submitted and presents
the party as having “no other promi
nency as a churchman than being a
churchman forgetful of his vows,”
The statement is as follows: The ar
ticle referred to was meant merely as
a fancy sketch, although it was found
ed on fact, in so far that an accident
occured to a gentleman on the street,
who undoubtedly, used profane lan
guage, and who is a member of one
of the Columbus churches. Since
writing the article, I have learned
that the gentleman is not a “leading
light” or an “exhorter and leader,”
but considers himself a very humble
member of the church to which he
belongs, and never raises his voice
in “appeals to the ungodly,” etc. His
name I have refused to make public,
as I was not at liberty to do so.
L. M. Ward.
—Columbus Enquirer-Sun, April
13th 1882.
All of which shows that the time
is past, at least in Columbus, when
Christian people are content to re
main silent and submissive under in
nuendoes and insinuations from any
quarter.
