Rev. S.F. Conrad of Charlotte filled the pulpit for Dr. Wm. A. Ayers, who was recovering from an attack of flu, at the First Baptist Church last Sunday morning. At the evening period he gave an illustrated lecture on his travels in the Holy Land.
Rev. Conrad is a remarkable man in many respects. Nearing his 80th milestone, he demonstrated in his sermon Sunday morning that he is in full possession of a keen intellect and physical power that is astonishing for a man of his advanced age. He has spent 54 years in the ministry, served 26 different church and saved thousands of souls in this period. His visit to Forest City was greatly enjoyed, and his many friends he
re hope he will be spared for many more years to carry on his great work.
