C. McPHERSON, of Waxahachie, was born January 20th, 1850, in Canada West. He was baptized in Mt. Vernon, Ky., in 1868, during a meeting held by Bro. Henry Tandy. He practiced law in Burksville, Ky., for several years, in which profession he succeeded admirably. He went down to Tennessee and found a better half, being married to Miss Ella Sheegog, of Nashville, April 20th, 1875. He preached his first sermon at Burksville, Ky., June 17th, 1877. He located with the church at Waxahachie, Texas, at the beginning of 1879, and (with the exception of a limited intermission) has been the regular preacher there ever since. Was the Texas editor of the Apostolic Guide for three years, and has written some for other papers. Those who have just read his sermon need not be informed that he is a forcible writer. He is full of energy, and speaks with fluency.
