Special to The Times-Enterprise.
The South Georgia Conference was
called to order yesterday morning
promptly at 9 o’clock by Bishop Key, of
Sherman, Tex. Nearly every member
of the large conference was present, and
answered at the first roll call. In
organizing for the session, Rev. W. M.
Blitch, of Cai.o, was elected as statisti
cal secretary, and Rer. E. E. Rose, of
Metcalfe, as assistant. Rev. J.-B.j Wight
of Cairo was also appointed on an impor
tant. oommittee.
Almost in the very beginning of yes
terday's session, under the call of the
20th question of the conference, the
character of Rev. Chas. Crawley of
Tifton was arrested. The Bishop ap
pointed a trial committee to hear the
case. On this committee is Rev. J. P.
Wardlaw of Thomasville.
It will be remem‘jered by many that
this case was taken np daring last
year’s session at Thom<u>/ille. It will
probably be finally disposed of today.
Rev. J. M.‘Butler, the host of the
convention was formerly stationed in
Thomas county. He was engaged, in
the work there for several years and
was no less popular among Themas
county people^than he is aniong his
need of the ^ome for thanksgiving of
ferings. Donations left either at the
home of Mrs. J. F. Evans, Mrs. M, R.
MaUetteor Mrs. EdGqok, will be cared
for and sent out to the Home.
There are now three girl? in the Home,
and as they were received in a very
destitute condition their needs are not
yet folly supplied.
