Mi's vv M Reese, Thomasville, Our Benefactors I have w ondered how the of land on which the and church once stood came be called “Beauty Square. I am under the that it was given jointly by lamented James Everett Mathew Dorsey for the agement of religion and Now pray what intended orial of these noble minds mains among us as the mark our appreciation? And is this a very undesirable lesson our children and to the people our community? Mr. and Mr. Dorsey aside, justice ourselves, to our children and the people, demands some ble recognition and memorial their benefactions. We might so name the as to perpetuate their and to foster their spirit of lic concern. For my part would like to see some memorial of them placed in methodist church. Read the evangelists tell us of words of Jesus incident to woman who annointed “wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout whole world, this also that hath done shall be spoken of memorial of her. »5 ' a Some one may say, “But of the motives of these men in their gift? ) 1 Let the execrable ghouls are wont to dig in the region men’s motives for the things reflect they have their scriptural prototypes in those who, in tile days of the Son Man, would ascribe his miracles of grace to Beelzebub.
