Read the words in any direction and you will find four groups of sentences, two consisting of positive statements of what each member of the Godhead is, and the others of what they are not. "God is the Father, From center circle outward God is the Son, God is the Holy Spirit." Positive: "The Father is God, From outer circles inward The Son is God, The Holy Spirit is God." Clockwise on outer circles and "The Father is not the Son, bands The Son is not the Holy Spirit, The Holy Spirit is not the Father." Negative: Counter-clockwise on outer circles'The Father is not the Holy Spirit, and bands The Holy Spirit is not the Son, The Son is not the Father." There are several existing varieties of the shield, a particularly beautiful one hav- ing symbols in the circles instead of words, thus: The All-Seeing Eye in the center and in the outer circles, the Hand of God, the Lamb of God, and the Dove.

Those with a healthy sense of "rootedness" are best able to produce "good fruit". This booklet is meant to help us look back and then to look ahead with greater confi- dence and to serve with larger commitment. Jarvis Buxton, the first Rector, is the only one whose service was longer than mine, the tenth Rector, presently is. And all ten Rectors could not have served without the continuing support of devoted par- ishioners — such as those whose efforts made this booklet possible, those whose names appear and the many whose names are not re- corded. But we must make special mention of the two interpreters, co- ordinators, writers — Wanda Stanard and Emily Carr — whose cease- less efforts are here brought to a successful conclusion. May this one hundred twenty-fifth Anniversary Booklet of Trinity Parish, Asheville, enrich many lives in the years ahead. flfc^Aj- %J^Z Rectors, Assistant and Associate Rectors Jarvis Buxton, D.D. 1849-1891 McNeely DuBose 1891-1903 William Theodotus Capers 1903-1905 Walter C.

Robert Emmet Gribbin Bishop Bishop Swttnn (§ne . Prologue . A hundred and twenty-five years are easily telescoped when mea- sured against the backdrop of history. Long, though, in the crowded experience of human lives. In 1849, when the first Trinity Church was built in Asheville, Queen Victoria marked the 12th of her 75-year reign. Zachary Taylor, the gen- eral whose soldiers called him "Old Rough and Ready," began his brief term as the 12th President of the United States. The Industrial Revolution (1790-1850) had transformed systems that had stayed the same for hundreds of years. Thousands of "forty- niners" trekked to California in the gold rush by overland trails, across the Isthmus of Panama or sailed around Cape Horn. And intrepid white hunters who explored this section of North Carolina, then a part of Cherokee Indian hunting grounds, were the forerunners of the colonial settlers that followed. Among them our "forty-niners" who established Trinity Church. own A The circuit riders . Although there were no established churches in this mountain region during those early days, itinerant preachers kept burning — sometimes faintly — the flame of religious interest. One of the earliest Anglican priests in the Carolinas was the Rev. Charles Woodmason, who before his ordination in his native England in 1766, was a planter, storekeeper and civil servant in Charleston, S.C. He never reached the Asheville area but he did minister to some North Carolinians and visited Cherokee towns beyond the Saluda River. The January 25, 1767, entry in his Journal: "A congregation at the Cheraws of about 500 people. (An Indian settlement along the Pee Dee River, ten miles below the Anson County, N. C. border.) Baptized about 60 children — Quite jaded out." In August: "Had a large Aud- ience — Many came 20, 30 miles out of North Carolina." He writes of standing and speaking for six hours on a stretch. At another service: "I was on my Legs from 8 to 6 — quite spent and so faint and wearied, that could take no Sustenance." Woodmason not only suffered from the vagaries of climate, but from primitive living conditions and unfamiliar food. And compounded with flagging interest in formal religion, there was harrassment by other sects who, no doubt, carried memories of religious restrictions imposed by the Established Church in their homelands.

By looking ahead to the given number the succeeding generation will 4 be found. The superior or raised numbers ( as Jonathan ) indicate the degree of descent from the founder of the family in America. The usual abbreviations are used.

  • Hit at Gas Hearing in Censorship Fight
    Mileage Estimates By C-Book Drivers Hit at Gas Hearing The blame for much of the gaso- line rationing problem was laid to- day at the door of the C-book holder who. according to an Office of Price Administration official, overestimates his actual mileage traveled in essential business. Testifying before a House Inter- state Commerce Subcommittee in- vestigating gasoline black markets. Charles F. Phillips, director of the Automotive Supply Rationing Divi- sion of OPA, asserted that “our greatest problem is getting Mr. and Mrs. John Jones to apply for only what they need and to stop at that point." The official admitted, under ques- tioning by Representative Brown, Republican, of Ohio, that many per- sons overestimate their require- ments because they feel ration boards* will cut their requests in many cases. Mr. Phillips also ad- mitted that many automobiles to- day are not getting 15 miles to the gallon, the yardstikc used by the OPA in issuing rations. Boards can make adjustments, however, if it can be proved their mileage is down, he said. Fair Share Demanded. Mr. Brown commented that it was “an old American custom" to want to get a fair share of things. Mr. Phillips replied that he had heard that that was the custom. Meanwhile the OPA. reporting aome progress in its drive against gasoline black markets, announced there was no increase in illicit diversion of fuel during the last month and declared “this fact alone Is a heartening achievement.” The scene in Washington Cathedral today as the Right the sermon which preceded the consecration of Bishop Dun Daily drain from legitimate use Rev.

The dissertation employs three major research methodologies by: (1) centralizing the role of social class in the Episcopal Church's history, (2) seriously considering the Episcopal Church's distinctive theology, and (3) quantifying the connections that linked the Episcopal Church to the South's economic structures prior to the Civil War. Archival research, periodicals, and published records related to the Protestant Episcopal Church provided the primary evidence used in the formulation of the dissertation's interpretations and conclusions.

  • Sewanee Alumni News, 1952
    ALUMNI NEWS February 15, 1952 Volume XVIII, No. 1 ti / r / V \ Ofhe Vice-chancellors Vage The University extends sincerest thanks to the nine hundred seventy-six alumni who have con- tributed during 1951 to the Alumni Fund, or to the Guerry Memorial Campaign, or to both. According to the latest tabulation your total contribution to these two funds for the year was $214,879.39 in cash and pledges. This is ex- tremely encouraging. You will be interested to know that a total of $725,000 in cash and pledges was raised for the building fund toward $900,000 needed by De- cember thirty-first, in order to obtain a bonus of $100,000 from an anonymous donor. The donor has been good enough to extend his time limit until Easter Day, which is April thirteenth this year. We must raise $175,000 between now and then in order to take advantage of his offer and provide for the cost of the two buildings now going up—Gailor Memorial and Gorgas Hall. The latter, which is the new dormitory at the Academy, has just had its name chosen in honor of the Academy's first Superintendent, the Uni- versity's second Vice-Chancellor, and his son, who has become, perhaps, Sewanee's best-known alum- nus. We all have reason to be extremely thankful for the many blessings which have come to Se- wanee during the year 1951. We have obtained stone dormitory (Shapard Hall), and virtual as- an Air Force ROTC which is working out splen- surance of money enough for a new stone deanery didly.
