THE STATE CONVENTION
Full Proceedings of the Meeting of
Christians.
The Christian Church State convention
met in Griffin on Tuesday evening according
to appointment.
After some beautiful music by their choir,
assisted by same of the otherGriflln church
choirs, the session opened with prayer by
the presiding officer, Rev. Mr. Foster. The
Rev. Mr. Lucas, who was to have preached
the first or introductory sermon,haviua failed
to airive, the presiding officer called on the
ReT. J. A. Perdue, an old Griffin boy, to dis¬
charge that duty, which he did with much
credit to himself and under the circum¬
stance. We will not attempt to give a synop
si* of hia sermon, but will only mention one
or two point*. One was that It was not de¬
creed that anyone should live hut was de¬
creed to all the human family ahonld die and
after death the judgement. The other point
was that no lady could be a leader of fashions
and indalge in ail the gaieties of the day and
atthesame time be a Christian. After the
sermon, other announcement* were made for
the morning by tho presiding officer, afier
which the convention adjourned until morn
big.
WEOM80AV MORNING SESSION.
After the morning songs and prayer, Elder
Adams made au extended speech of welcome
to the ministers and delegates, which was re
sponded toby Elder Golightly.then Rev. Mr.
Spencer preached an able sermon from ths
text “Except the Lord bniid the house, they
that build labor but in vain.” After prayer,
adjourned until ii o’clock p. m
AFTERNOON SESSION.
The convention met at Jo’clook p. m. At.
ter singing and prayer they proceeded to en¬
roll the names of the ehurclies and their del¬
egates. We are sorry to learn that a large
number of the church*.* did nothave any rep
rcsentatives here, but when we taka into con
sideratiou that the convention cover* the
State of Georgia, the great distance some
would have to come, at this very busy season
of tlieyenr, wearenot surprised that the del¬
egates from the extreme partsofthe State
failed to come-
The enrollment being over, the State Evan¬
gelist, J. A. Perdue, was called on for a
speech on church extension. He substitut¬
ed a printed plan written by some one else*
as the best plan for shurch extension. The
plan was to organize an extension or loan
fund, to loan to a weak church for a smnl]
rate of interest toenablethcm to build house
of worship. The convention thentook up
mteoeUandous business.
