He was accompanied Mrs. Turner. As the teachers of our public sc in. the W. T.

How did the fruits of the industries represnted on Latior day impress you? Did you contrast the products of the saloon and tobacco trades?

A number of hacks and vehicles were familiar objects today on Court Place and the average hackman had an air about him that suggested that he thought himself lord of all he surveyed. D.

M. Luther, also smiled, because yesterday Police Justice Car-ter decided that the hackmen, whose cause Mr. i.utner nas so iaiimuiiy espoused, had a perfect right to return to their old stamping giound on the square. Some time ago the Hoard of Aldermen passed an ordinance making it a misdemeanor for the hacks to stand on the square, but subsequently reconsidered and referred the matter to a committee. The report of the committee was not accepted which left the situation as it existed before the ordinance was passed.

Former Chief ol Police Lee designated the square as t' rendevous for vehicles. but Chief James has made no designation. 1.01 will he do so until the Hoard of Aldermen shall take the initiative. This important matter will probably this evening be given consideration by the Hoard. Oysters at Hancock's Cafe.

CAMPBELL, D. D. Given on th Anniversary of the Dedication by Or. McRee of the Swannanoi Presbyterian Church. The interesting sketch of the life of Ir.

James McRee; given by Rev. R. F. Campltell. D.

pastor of the First Presbyterian church of Asheville, on the occasion of the celebration of jthe anniversary of Swannanua Presbyterian church Wednesday, was, in full as follows: In the year 1730 two brothers bear ing the patronymic McRee, emigrated from County Down, Ireland, and settled in North Carolina. One of them, content to cease his wanderings when he reached the shores of the new world made his home near Wilmington. The other, possessing, perhaps, a more enterprising and adventurous spirit. pushed on to the Piedmont region of the State, and settled in Iredell coun ty. It was here that his son, James McRee, the subject of this sketch, was born on the 10th day of May, 1752.

His father, having the high appreciation of education so characteristic of the Scotch-Irish sent hitn to the College of New Jersey at Princeton, where he entered the ju nior class in at I he age of 21, and wnence he was graduated two years later. He studied theology at Rul lock's Creek, S. under the direction of the Rev. Joseph Alexander, D. a man of line talents and accomplish incuts and a teacher of great reputa turn through the Carolina, as well a a preacher of uncommon power and popular gifts.

The teaching and preaching of sui a man could no fail to make indelible impression upon the mind and heart of the young of the young di vinity student, and there can be nc doubt that James McRee owed much of his su cess in the ministry to tht influence of Dr. Alexander. In those days there were no theologi cal seminaries, unless such men as Alexander may be considered as hav ing constituted within themselves epit omtzed seminaries. It was probably out of a stnse of the debt he owed Dr. Alexander's instruction, that Dr McRee afterwards received young men under his own direction as students for the gospel ministry.

In April. 1788, James McRee was li censed to preach by the Presbytery of Orange, and soon thereafter received and accepted a call to become the pas tor of the Steele Creek congregation in Mccklenbui county. Those were th days of long pastorates, and Mr. McRee was content to spend twenty years with this, his tirst charge. Doubtless much of the staid character, solid intelligence and pure Presbyterianism of the Steele Creek community of today could be traced back to the inlluenceof James McRee.

The same remark might be made in regard to Centre church, SO miles north of Steele Creek, where his next pastorale extended over a period of SO years. In 1X10 Mr. McRee received the degree of Doctor of Divinity from the I'niver-sity of North Carolina. About the year just when 1 have not leen able to find out. Dr.

McRee crossed the Blut Ridge mountains and bec ame pastor of l'incy Grove or Swannanoa church. How long he served this church 1 do not know, but on the Sth day of September, just Tx years ago today-he dedicated to the worship of God the frame building that stands at the foot of this knoll, which was the second edifice erected by this congregation, the lirst having stood on a hill about two miles west of the present building neai what is known as Baptist church. Dr. McRee married Miss Rachel Cruscr of Staten Island, New York, who survived him, living to the remarkable age of years. They had three sons.

A bra in James and Hamilton: and three daughters, who became the wives respectively of Samuel Davidson, Joseph Gudger and Daniel Smith. Mr. A. C. Mc Ree of I.owndesboro.

son of Abram and grandson of James McRee, says in a letter to his kinsman. Air. Samuel W. Davidson of this community: "I have heard my father say that grandfather preached 6'J years of his life. I have one of his sermons preached on the occasion of a Fourth of July celebration at Charlotte in 17S5.

I have also some of his old I ks. among them Scott's Family Bible. His watch, an old silver piece, is still an heirloom." Several weeks ago I wrote to Mr. McRee to send me this sermon by express, and it was my intention to read extracts frc it on this occ asion. But 1 have heard nothing from him.

and have concluded that he valued tht manuscript too highly to allow it to take the trip, at which I do not wonder. The Presbyterian Kncyclopedia says: "Dr. McRee was dignified in the pulpit. Iluent in delivery, and a most popular preacher." 'I he Rev. W.

W. Pharr. D. pastor Centre church, writes: "I have often heard him spoken of by some of the old peoplt when 1 first came to Centre, but those old people are all goiie. They spoke ol him as an able pivi'cher.

They als spoke of him as always neat and fastidious in his dress. He was, a good talker and paid much attention to the rules of eticiuette." Col. A. T. Davidson told me he had often heard his mother speak of Dr.

McRce as a man of great ability and of fine gifts as a preacher. She alst spoke of his mee ting death with great calmness and with perfect trust in his Snviour. I have heard two anecdotes of Dr McRee. one illustrating his Scotch-Irish caution, and the other his absorp tion in the offices of devotion. He used to drive a gig of a very old-fashioned pattern.

In visiting his people, whenever he went to a house he always had his horse unhitched, even if he did not expect to stay more than a few minutes. When asked why he did so. he replied (with what. I suppose, we might call horse sense). "Buck never told me that he would never run away." The other story is told by one of his grandsons and illustrates the old minister's piety and also the prominence given the family worship in those days.

It was his habit to gather the members of the household alMiut the family altar morning and evening. So devout was the old man's spirit that these pious exercises would often be extended to half an hour or more, and ere especially long on the Sabbath days. One Sunday morning whilst the family wert on their knees, this grandson heard the hounds giving forth the music of the chase the sweetest of all music to the ears of a young Nimrod. He struggled against the promptings of the llesh as long as he could, but, finally, unable longer to resist the temptation, he rose quietly from his knees, tipped as noiselessly as he could from the room, seized his gun and ran in the direction of the hounds. He hadn't gone far before a deer bounded into view.

He raised his gun. shot the deer, and returned to the house to find the family still on their knees. He crept quietly to his place, knelt as reverently as ever, and rose with the rest without their having discovered that he had left the room. Dr. McRee died on the 28th day of March.

1840. and his sacred dust, along with that of his kinsmen who have followed him to man's long home, sleeps here in the old graveyard under these sentinel pines; and from his silent tomb has Issued the call that brings togeth er today his descendants and theirs to do honor to the good man memory and to join hands over the hallowed "graves of the godly ancestors whose worshlo made the spot whereon we stand holy ground. in ing ug m. to A Arriving Daily.
