Mrs. Hope Polhill Writes of Her Husband’s Suicide. Mrs. Hope Polhill has written the following to The Macon Tele graph concerning the suicide of her husband and his connection with Christian science: Certain rumors as to Mr. Pol- hill’s attitude toward Christian science in general and its effect upon his home life, have reached me. While it is painful to have to answer such rumors, I feel that it is duedkfr. UNION MEETING. Below are the questions for dis- CQSEion at the union meeting to be held with Hopewell Baptist church, beginning Friday before the fifth Sunday in March: 1. To what cause or causes can he traced the growing indifference of a large element -of our church membership to the work of the Lord in general, and wherein lies the remedy? 2. What are the scriptural teach ings in regard to rebaptism, and under what circumstances only should it be practiced? 3. Is it wrong for a Baptist to ongage in the observance of the Lord’s supper with other Christian denominations? If wrong, what should be done with a member who Persists in doing so? 4. What should be the attitude °f north Georgia Baptists to Mer cer university? What was the nature of Christ’s body from the time of the insurrection until the ascension— ^usit a natural or spiritual body? 6* Why are Christians tempted | of the devil, and what are the pro lusions of God’s grace under such j | Clr cum8tanees? L 7 - Through what The work of turning, winter goods into money goes merrily on; we’ve.warmed up to it; .we don’t stop at profit loss; we dont shy at cost.

He seemed depressed about certain occurrences connect ed with his office as solicitor. But •we had a sweet and loving talk on this last night together. I told him that we must rely more on God and go to Him with our trou bles, and right then and there, by my side, he knelt down and pray ed, as best he knew, to the Giver of All Good. I said to him that it seemed we were both passing through our Getbsemane, and I guessed we needed a chastening to make us purer and better. In my solicitude I asked him to go for Christian science help and have a treatment every day for awhile foi mental distress and despondency, and also to have the’scientist treat his eyes and throat. He said he would do so, and I shall always believe he intended to keep his word. What fatal circumstance changed his course, after he went to town to order some household supplies, I do not know. It was not uuusual for him to go to his office, where his law li brary was, to study at night.

Hope Polbill at home was the same man he was to his friends and acquaintances outside—happy, genial, whole-souled. He was one of the sweetest natures I ever knew; a light in our household; loved and loving. Before -observ ing the workings and benefits of Christian- science, he was pro-? nonneed in his opposition*, but a!** ways with respect for the views, 'wishes and freedom of choice in others. As he saw me raised from invalidism to perfect health and made better and happier, his op position decreased. In therecent illness of our baby, Mr. Polhill himself, weht at mid night on Wednesday for a Chris tian science healer. The scientist gaye the treatment with the under standing that Mr. Polhill was will ing; and in fact, he went to an other room and slept, satisfied to leave the child with God and the healer. 11111 Nothing can throw us off this lme.
