His first name is Hiram. That is why he splits his name in the
middle. Maybe if your first name were Hiram you would do the same thing.
Mr. H. Earl Myers is the new pastor of City Road M.E. Church
South in this city. He is 31 years old and carries no marriage certificate.
City Road Church had a married pastor before the last Conference sent them Mr.
Myers. Married ministers are not great successes in managing a choir. City Road
likes a full choir loft.
Mr. Myers is a native of Anson County and was raised on a
farm. Having worked on a farm in Anson county you can’t blame him for getting
into the ministry. And so he went to Trinity College and graduated there. He
has served three charges besides Elizabeth City; at Graham, N.C., Manchester,
N.H., and Salisbury, N.C. He came to Elizabeth City from Salisbury.
Before entering the ministry he took a turn at commercial
salesmanship and traveled for a while. That traveling salesman experience did
much to humanize him and give him a broader view of men and things than the
average theological student is permitted to acquire. He is a genial, jolly,
energetic, masculine minister and the prediction is that the will make good
with his new charge.
