Book Description

Excerpt from St. James Church; Goose Creek, S. C: A Sketch of the Parish From 1706 to 1909 By request of the Vestry of St. James Church, Goose Greek; the writer has prepared this little volume and presents it to the Public with no claim to literary merit or ability, but only as a modest contribution to the history of the early days of our Church and State; and a memorial of the old Parish of which it treats. As will be noted, most of the material has been gathered from "Dalcho's History of the Church in South Carolina," and other authorities. The anecdotes are merely from tradition, and only as such are they here presented. The story of those old days has always appealed to the writer "With love, far brought From out the storied past; and used Within the present." So this has been a labor of love, and as such it is offered, with the hope that it will give as much pleasure to its readers, as the preparation has afforded its author.
