* e Handsomest Structure in the City
-The Good Work, ot a Flour¬
ishing Denomination.
And he built hissanct uary like high palaces,
like the earth which he hath established for¬
ever.—Pgalmslxxviii, <59.
The new Presbyterian church at¬
tracts the attention of a visitor to
Griffin as the most modern and hand¬
some’ public structure in the city.
This, church was organized by
Henry L. Deane in 1841. Rev. Wm.
J. Keith became its first regular pas¬
tor in 1849.
The present pastor is the Rev. Mal¬
colm McN. McKay, the membership
is over 150. The trustees are Henry
0. Burr, chairman; C. H. Osborn,
W. W. .Walcott, W. B. Walcott, R. J.
Deane, A. C. Sorrell, Geo. B. Mooney,
Walter Bate. The following named
are the Elders’: H. T. Brawner, Geo.
If. Grant, D. H. Pe'den, Dr. Jno. L.
Moore, Jno. H. White, A. W. Blake,
W. B. Walcott, D. D. Peden. The
deacons an if. H. Osborn, Jno. F.
Stilwell, A. Lower, J. M. Brawner, R.
J. Deane, A. C. Sorrell, T. C. MeLau-
rin.
The new church building is con¬
structed after the best modern plans
and it is a credit to the congregation
and to the city. The architect was
Jacob Snyder, of Akron, Ohio, and
the contractor was Jno. S. West¬
brook, of Griffin. The structure is of
brick with cappings and facings of
oolitic limestone. The interior of t he
church is handsomely finished and
the vaulted roof gives the auditori¬
um a grand appearance. Theacoustic
properties of the auditorium are said
to be perfect. After th^modern plan
the auditorium and the assembly
room are on the same floor and with
large sliding doors that can be
thrown back bringing the two rooms
together and thus on unusual gath¬
erings adding largely to the seating
capacity of the church. The main
room will seat easily 300 people. By
throwing open all the doors and
using all the floor space au audience
of 500 could be provided for. There
is also a large class rooiri, a ladies
parlor and.preacher’s study, and a
room with the shelves all arranged
for the Sunday school library. These
rooms all Open into each other and
the vestibule, and when the doors are
opened wide it presents in one view
the size and beauty of the interior of
the building. The building is heated by
a furnace. The entire furnishing of the
church was the contribution of the
ladies and it is beautifully and hand¬
somely done. From the pulpit one
•commands a view • of every part
of the auditorium, and also of the
assembly room. On the left of the
pulpit is a Targe raised platform for
the choir. The ladies parlor is tasteful¬
ly and well fitted up and in the book¬
case are standard authorities that
the pastor may need. The building
has a fine location on a lot contain¬
ing three-fourths of an acre.
It is Baid that there is only a small
debt hanging over the church jand
that can be readily raised. ,
The church was commenced about
the 1st of .January, 1888; and com¬
pleted about the 1st of November
the same year, at a cost of

McKay has been doing good work
and the meetings that have been held
recently have resulted in many ac¬

has been assisted by Rev. J.T. Bruce,
Presbyterian pastor of LaGrange,
•Dr. Jno. SL Dubose, evangelist of
Atlanta l#csbytery and by Rev: H.

Dyspepsia causes depraved blood, which, in
time, aflects every organ and function of the
Body. As a remedy for these troubles, noth¬
ing can approach Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. It
vitalises the blood, strengthens the stomach
and corrects all disorders of the liver and

The Farmers Alliance Gather—A Hap¬
py Occasion*
Yesterday was a red letter day in
the history of the Farmers Alliance -
There was a large gathering of the
best people from this and surround¬
ing counties. Mr. Elder made u hap¬
py talk and announced the order of
the da.y. Mr. Miller, the president of
the County Alliaiiee. was on hand and
presided with great dignity .
Col. Flynt made a patriotic and
able Alliance address. He was fol¬
lowed by Mr. SB. N. BarroW, who
made a clear, logical and forcible ap¬
peal for the oil mill and fertilizer fac¬
tory to be erected at Griffin. He
stated that he had canvassed
part of the teritorv and had
met with much encouragement,
and that the Alliance oil mill and
guano factory was a certainty. The
President then announced an ad¬
journment for dinner. Numbers of
baskets were spread and fried chick¬
en and other-good tliingfe were freely
offered to the large assembly of men
and women. The Griffin folks were
hospitably treated and invited to
share the good things at every ’•ta¬
ble. Most of the party were enter¬
tained by Mr. Elder. Mr. David
Bailey was the only one of the party
•that was equal to the occasion and
accepted all the invitations.
After dinner Judge John D. Stew¬
art ..made a powerful speech in
behalf of the Experimental farm.
Judge Stewart made a speeeh worthy
of himself and toe occasion. He was
followed by Capt. HughH. Colquitt,
who exhorted the people to come up
and give the Experimental Farm
their, countenance and support. Capt.
C.also endorsed the statements of
Mr. Barrow as as to the guano' fac¬
tory and oil mfll and urged the peo¬
ple to aid him and Mr. Searcy and
others in carrying out this enter-
prize. *
The weather was charming, the din¬
ner delightful and everybody bad a
good time.
Among the Griffin visitors
Miss Lizzie Hill and Miss Maud John¬
son, whograced the occasion and ad¬
ded to the pleasure of their friends.
