This church, located in Chester county, S C, is among the earliest founded in the Southern section of the United States, and its history is full of general as well as local interest A glance at the book convinces us that the author has been at great pains to procure all the facts connected with the struggles of the pioneers of the church in the Carolinas. ' while the stvle is graceful and entertaining. The last half of the volume is devoted to biographical sketches of the four pastors, Bev. John Jioyse, Rev. J ohn Hemphill, JJ. JJ Rev.
