100 YEARS WORK
IN METHODISM
PIERCE FAMILY HAS SERVED
IH METHODIST MINISTRY CONTIN
UOUSLY FOR FULL CENTURY.
Begun Active Work In 1804 When
Revs. Lovlek Pierce and Riddick
Pierce Entered tlie South Carolina
Conference Rev. Thomus F.
Pierce, Brother of Famous Bishop
Pierce, and Sou of Rev. Lovick
Pierce, Is Notv Located in Savan
nah, 1
For 100 years continuously serving
in the Methodist Church, South, is the
record made by the Pierce family.
Rev. Thomas F. Pierce is at present
in the city, the guest of Mr. and Mrs.
Thomas W. Norwood, at No. 120 Henry
street, west.
Mr. Pierce is within a few months
of SO years of age, and by far the
greater part of that time has been
spent in the ministry of the Methodist
Church. Despite his extreme age, Rev.
Mr. Pierce is comparatively well, and
daily may be seen enjoying an after
noon walk in the vicinity in which he
is now making his home.
Rev. Mr. Pierce receives daily visits
from the Methodist ministers of the
city, nearly all of whom have been
intimately associated with him and the
younger ones have always looked up
to him as a leader. Prominent Meth
odist laymen of Savannah are also fre
quent visitors and all are received cor
dially and with hearty welcome.
Mr. Pierce established a unique rec
ord for himself while serving as a
minister, and one which has seldom,
if ever, been equaled. For fifty-six
years he served as a pastor at differ
ent charges without losing a Sunday
or taking any vacation. He retired
from active work in the conference at
the close of the last session of the
North Georgia Conference at Griffin.
Rev. Mr. Pierce is descended from a
line of men who were closely allied
with Methodism and for 100 years the
family has served continuously in its
ministry. Mr. Pierce now has two
sons in the work and should they live
as long as he the term of contin
uous service for the family will be
stretched out to 175 years.
Mr. Pierce is a brother of the famous
Bishop George F. Pierce, and he him
self has held every office in the gift
of the church save that of bishop.
The history of the Pierce family in
the Methodist ministry begins in 1804,
when Rev. Lovick Pierce and Rev.
Riddick Pierce entered the South
Carolina Conference. At that early
day there was no Georgia conference.
Rev. Thomas Pierce is a son of Rev.
Lovick Pierce. His brothers were
Bishop George F. Fierce and James L.
Pierce.
“A CHILD’S REASON FOR
BEING A CHRISTIAN.”
So lilcct of Special Sermon
!>>■ Dr. C'lirlstle to Children.
“A Child's Reason For Being A
Christian,” was the topic of a special
sermon preached by Rev. I>r. L. R.
Christie to children at the First Bap
tist Church yesterday afternoon. The
lecture room of the church was well
filled, and much interest was manifest
ed by the children. A number of them
asked to be remembered in prayer.
At the services last night, he preach
ed from the topic "Gratitude.” The
text chosen appears four times in the
107th Psalm: "O that men would praise
the Lord for His goodness and for
His wonderful works to the children of
men." Dr. Christie took the position
that even if there were no hereafter
that the people of this earth should
be-Christians out of common thankful
ness and gratitude to God.
The interest in the meetings con
tinues to grow, and the church has
been crowded every night since the
protracted services began. Dr. Christie
is a very forceful and pleasing speaker,
and his sermons have been unusually
strong. There were about fifteen con
versions at the two services yesterday.
No services will be held this afternoon
owing to the Memorial Day exercises.
There will be services at the regular
hour to-night.

ANOTHER ORIGIN OF
MEMORIAL DAY.
It* Observance Attributed to MU*
Lizzie P. Rutherford of Colnnibu*.
Editor Morning News: In your issue
of April 24 there appears an article by
Mrs. George W. Lamar upon the origin
and signification of Memorial Day, at
tributing the origin of the day to Mrs.
Mary Ann Williams of Columbus. Of
course Mrs. Lamar has no idea that
her claims for Mrs. Williams are er
roneous, for she has the authority of
several historians of Georgia and nu
merous journalists. Nevertheless the
statement is incorrect. I have no de
sire to appear before the public in the
roie of an iconoclast, but as a lover of
truth and an enemy of error I desire
to give to the readers of your paper
and the people of this state a true ac
count of the origin of Memorial Day.
Mrs. Williams performed her part in
the establishing of the day, but purely
as the agent of one in whose pure
mind the beautiful observance had its
origin.
In Columbus, in the year 1861, was
organized the Soldiers' Aid Society,
having for its secretary the daughter
of Adolphus Skrine Rutherford, Esq.,
Miss Lizzie P. Rutherford, who served
in the capacity of secretary until the
close of the war. Shortly after the
close of the war Miss Rutherford con
ceived the idea of changing the so
ciety’s name from Soldiers’ Aid Society
to the Memorial Society and the ob
servance of a special day for the deco
ration of the graves of our fallen he
roes. Before the next meeting of the
society, however, Miss Rutherford was
called away from her labors by the ill
ness of an uncle. Before leaving she
requested the society to carry on the
work during her absence and write to
all other ladies’ aid societies, request
ing the adoption of the name of Mem
orial Society in preference to Aid So
ciety. The society in Columbus then
requested Mrs. Mary Ann Williams,
who had been placed in the room of
Miss Rutherford, to write to all other
aid societies, urging the adoption of
Miss Rutherford’s suggestion. This,
Mrs. Williams did, but not in her
official capacity. She wrote as a pri
vate individual, expounding a private,
personal request.
Although this error has gone on un
corrected for so many years, the citi
zens of Columbus have never fallen
into it. A chapter of the Daughters of
the Confederacy in Columbus perpetu
ates the name of Miss Rutherford. In
the beautiful Linwood Cemetery in Co
lumbus lie the remains of Miss Ruther
ford, and over them stands the stone
which will tell its story for ages to
come of this blessed woman. On her
monument is inscribed:
LIZZIE RUTHERFORD.
The Soldier’s Friend
and
Suggester of Memorial Day.
Sect, of Soldiers’ Aid Society,
1861-1865.
Voices have blessed her, now silent
and dumb;
Voices will bless her in long years to
come.
Daughter of Susan Thweatt
and Adolphus Skrine Rutherford,
Born Ist June. 1833,
Died March 31st, 1873.
Married Capt. Roswell Eilis of the
Columbus Guards. Nov. 23rd. 1868.
Erected by the Lizzie Rutherford
Chapter, Daughters of the Confeder
acy, Columbus. Ga.
Thus it was that Memorial Day had
its origin, and the honor of its con
ception was perverted. Such has been
the hand of Fate from Time’s first
birth. We have only recently seen
how the honor of originating the
Daughters of the Confederacy has been
claimed by usurpers, when all the
world knows it had its origin in the
fertile brain and patriotic heart of a
Savannah woman. Although I appear
here as the champion of truth, there
will be some who will prefer to live
in error. It probably does not mat
ter. But it is just as well to keep
the record straight.
