Warrenton, Georgia.
In 1850 he was admitted to the bar. He was baptized by a Baptist preacher, who did not ask him to narrate an experience. In 1853 he entered Bethany College where he graduated in July, 1854, and was ordained in the Bethany church as an evangelist. He was soon called to the Augusta, Georgia church, which he served faithfully during a long ministry.
In 1859, he published a work entitled, "The Organon of Scripture; or, the Inductive Method of Biblical Interpretation." Brother Lamar is a graceful writer, a clear thinker, and a splendid preacher. He is very choice in his selection of words, and is recognized today as one of the most chaste and polished writers in the church. His present home is Warrenton, Georgia.
