M ) Talbotton, Ga., June 3d, 1876. j We, the Committee oppointed at Inst meeting of this Lodge to draft resolutions commemorative of our deceased brother, Henhy Calliek, beg leave to make the fol lowing report: Whereas, An All-wise Providence has j seen proper to visit our ranks with death, ; aud remove from time to eternity, our well- I beloved brother, Henry Calufu, who de ! parted this life on the 17th ot May, 1876, in the 65th year of his age, and at the height of his u set til ness. Ai citizens, we nre sorely bereaved; as Masons, we feel that a great shadow has overspread us and made dark our path. Our hearts, though made to bleed before ky the same fell destroyer of the body, tocl now as though they have received a home thrust iu truth, for our chain is broken, our bond is shaken and a pillar of our institution is gone, which no time can replace. Asa citizen, we mourn him, tor none was higher t steomed; as a civil officer, none better liked; as a friend and relative, none better loved; as a husband and tat bet, none more kind, provident and affectionate; nor in return more idolized; as a Christian pro lessor, none more consistent; as a M.isou, | bis actions were regulated by rule and line, ; and his conduct harmonized by the princi i pies of morality and virtue, punctually ob | serving his duty, neither turning to the j tight or to the left, but studiously avoiding all dissimulation in conversation, directing his steps to the patn w hich leads to immor tal glory, convincing mankind by his dis fleet and virtuous conduct of the gooduess of our institution. And truly was lie one to whom the bnrthened heart might pour out its sorrow, and to whom distress might pre t r its suit; whose hand was guided by jus tice and whose heart was expanded by be nevolence. But he is gone to that long home, “not made with hands, eternal in the I heavens ” Wept on earth by friends and kindred his memory honored by all who knew him, and wept, honored and sung by i tt'l true Masons. "Lite’s duty done, as sinks the flay, Light from its load the spirit flies: While heaven amt earth combine to say, How blest the rightvous when he dies.” Therefore, be it Resolved, Ist. That we greatly feel our own loss, and tender our heartfelt sympa- I thy and condolence to his bereaved family 1 and kindred. 2.

Again we arc culled upon to chronicle the sad doings of the tell destroyer incur midst. Mr. John W. Dozier, an old citizen of the county, departed this life last Saturday, at his home, one mile from town. His death was qnite sudden, though not totally un expected. For two weeks he had inter mittent spells of what appeared to bo cramp colie. On Saturday meruing last he was up and about, attending to the feeding of hi.s stock, Ac Twas shortly af'er dinner, perhaps, when he went to his room, com plaining somewhat, aud lay down upon the bed. One of his daughters followed him, and in a few moments she stepped out, ! leaving him sitting up. She hail barely lef | when she heard a noise, and went back 1 only to find her father in the last throes of death. He passed away in a moment, without a struggle. The news ot his sudden taking off caused a profound sorrow to pervade the entire community. Sadness was depicted upon every countenance. Jfr. Dozier was a man who had no enemies everybody loved him and the idea of his leaving us was enough to cast a gloom over us. He was seventy-five years of age on the 29th of May, but was a man of exceptional activity aud vigor. Ho 4 wasa member of the Methodist Church f.*r over fifty years, and no mau could ever bring aught against his religious walk. Truly a good man is gone. Quiet, gentle, unas suming, generous, whole-souled, manly, God-like and pure, are terms that tell Ins traits and his character. To know .11 was to admire arid respect him; to be constantly I associated w ith him, was to love him. No mere loving and affectionate father ever lived. ■ Funeral services were held at the Metho- I dist Church last Sabbath afternoon at four I o'clock. The sermon was preached by the I pastor, Rev. G. C. Clarke. Alter this the ! body was interred at the cemetery with Ma i sonic honors, as Bro. Dozier was a member j ot the mystic order. | A large family of children are left to bat. I tie w ith life w ithout the counsels of father the last earthly parent is gone-but wc | point them to that everlasting Father, who lis able to keep them. To Him, and to no ! other, can they look lor comfort, and peace, | aud happiness. .1! Infer man # tiro's, A lot of Fresh Water Ground Meal, white and fine.

Having been appointed under a resolution passed at the last meeting of Quarterly Con ference, Columbus District, Talbow circuit, to write a brief sketch of Corinth Church, to bo recorded in the circuit church book ; in the performance ot said duty, the writer will, ou account of having access to but u very limited church record, have to record facts and incidents mainly from memory and tradition. Early in the year 1828, Rev. James .Stock dale, on his wav from his home in South Carolina to the Talbot and Harris county mission, (to which he had been assigned by the South Carolina aud Georgia Conference,) while crossing Flint river, enquired of the ferryman if he know ot any Methodists iu what was then known as the New Purchase- The ferryman directed him to Josiah Mathews, a Methodist who had recently moved over and settled six miles west of the ferry. The missionary, after arriving at the place he had been directed, and announcing who he was, his business, Ac., joined by his host, went riding over the country hunting Methodists with the view of organizing a church, provided material sufficient could be found. They found but few, for the coun try was very sparoely settled. It will be remembered that the drawing for the lands west of Flint river had not been but about two months, and the ludians had not near all h-l't. All appointment for preaching the next Saturday and Sunday was made and extensively circulated; it was to be in an unoccupied dwelling about one hundred yards north ot old Corinth church, which was made of rough post oak logs; size about 16 by ‘2O feet. The meeting was tolerably well attended, for they came a great distance; some in ox carls, bora- back and on foot; not a few bringing their rifles with them. On the first day ot the meeting a church was organized, composed of Josiah Mathews, his wife and three chil dren, Herod Dupree, Jeremiah Pearson and wife, and Mrs. Nancy Pearson, and named Corinth. Thus came into existence (the w riter thinks) the first church established in Talbot or Harris counties. They worshiped in the small church, until the crops were laid hy; then erected a church at the o'd site of Corinth church of split pine logs; size about 28 by 32 feet, in which they worshiped until 1838, when they built a framed house at a cost ot £475. Itev. B. R. Searcy was the architect, and when completed ho preached the dedh ation sermon. In 1869 it was, in a church hlceting, agreed to move about one mile to Pratts burg, and erect anew church. To that, end Rev. Z. Stearns, Joseph Brown, W. T. Carter, .J. F. Mathews, and W. P. Mathews, were appointed a building committee, who contracted w ith James Cottingham, for him to furnish everything and build the house to. £1,625. He, with abundant help, had it completed in-30 days and delivered up the keys and received every dollar of liis pay, and it there was a murmur, or bad thought, by any one in the whole transaction, the writer never beard of it. The dedication sermon was pr- ached by the pastor, Rev. K. J. Corley, (October 24th, to a large con gregation.) Iron 2d Chronicles, Gthaud 18th versos; which reads as follows: “But will Gou iu every deed dwell with men on earth 7 Behold, heaven and the ln-aven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house I have built!” The present < fficers of Corinth church are viz: Trustees, Rv. Z. Stearns, J. F. Mathews, J. A. Carter, J. 13. Barker, and W. P. M .t'.iews. SLwards, J. T. Parker, J. F. Mathews and W. B. Mathews. Sab bath School officers, Superintendent: J. R. Baisde.i, Bible class teacher, It. L. Trussell. Class-Leaders, C. M. Mitchell and J. It. Baisdcn. Church Sectretary, W. P. Mathews Corinth Church has doubtless in her whole history fallen behind many churches in amount of spiritual enjoyment, but she Ims pursued the even tenor of her way; has had her revivals and times of rejoicing and periods of coldness, but peace aud harmony have prevailed among her members, almost uninterruptedly. She has by never failing to pay her assessment for the support of h**r pastors, carried out literally our Saviour’s declaration. “The laborer is worthy ot his hire.” In which she has set an example worthy ol emulating. Her members now number 77. which is more than she could claim any time in the past, notwithstand ing she has most of the time hud a much i&rgor white population contiguous During antebellum limes, Corinth Jiad a largo mem bership of blacks, who were at one time served by Rev. 13. R. Searcy, a local deacon. He was illiterate, but a good and zealous man, and had a very strong will and he had much difficulty in disciplining his large and unruly flock. On one occasion he had a number ot thou on triul for various offences.* They criminated aud recriminated each other, and had much conflicting evidence until they got into a muss, and to a dead lock, which the pastor broke up by turning every black member out of the church, not without notifying them that he would at his next appointment open the doors of the church and receive back those who might be considered worthy. By this bold and summary process the church was relieved of many members who were not inclined to live up to the requirements of its discipline. The church, whoso sketch this is, b is had in its long history, many members who were remarkable for their devotional piety and sterling worth to the church, but the w riter will only name some of those who have gone to their reward: Josiah Mathews, Rev. J3. J{. 'Searcy, Joseph Brown, 'V. C. Spear, Mrs. Jennie M o hews,Mrs. Elizabeth Stearns, Mrs. Nancy Pearson, Mrs Martha Drane, Mrs. Ellen Draue, and Mrs. Minerva S. Mathews. This ketch would be incomplete without mention of one who still survives, Rev. Z. Stearns, who has been an esteemed member of, and pillow to the church, for near forty years; most ol which time lie kept up a monthly appointment at it; he is now in his eighty-fourth year is waiting to be called to his reward. Corinth bring the first church to exist in this section of the country, may she be among the last whose light shall cease to shine, and as the genial dews I deceuded upon the cedars of Lebanon, so j may the grace of God decend on her, ena- j bling her to go on prospering and to pros- i per, until time shall be uo more, then may j all who have worshiped at her alters join 1 the happy throng with those whose robes havo been made white in the blood of the Limb and sing God’s praise while eternal ages shall roll.
