J. E. Wray accompanied by Mrs. Wray and their four children, reached the city resterday afternoon | from Orlando, and are now occupy- ing the parsonage of the First Meth- odist church of which Dr. Wray is the newly appointed pastor. The lat- ter is a fine, genial gentleman and has already made a splendid impres- sion on all with whom he has come in contact. As stated before, he is a brilliant speaker and will be heard DR. J. E. WRAY. by large congregations on next Sun. day at both hours. It gives the Telegram pleasure to welcome Dr. Wray and family on behalf of itself, the people of the Methodist congregation and the public at large. We believe Dr. Wray will do a great work in Lake- land anq that between nim and his membership there will be that bond of fellowship and harmony that makes for the accomplishment of the greatest good. e et Rev. J. B. Ley, the new pastor of the Methodist church, will arrive in Orlando tomorrow and at night will hold the prayer meeting service, meeting with some of his members for the first time. He will return to Lakeland and accompany his family to Orlando Saturday. Mr. Ley suc- ceeds Dr. J. E. Wray, who after a two years' pastorate, left today with his family for Lakeland, tne two having practically swapped church and towns with a new set of faces. —Orlando Reporter-Star, 22nd.
