AI Notes
Three pasted clipping fragments on the album page from the same Charleston paper (apparently News & Courier, late September 1980). The largest is the continuation ‘BISHOP / Continued From Second Front’ detailing the program for the consecration of the Rt. Rev. C. FitzSimons Allison as bishop coadjutor of the Diocese of South Carolina; the front-page beginning is on p324. Adjacent fragments include the tail of a bank-organization story (slate of officers and directors of a new Charleston bank opening in November 1980 at 160 Meeting St., then moving to the Liberty National Bank Building at 151 Meeting St.) and the tail of a city-government story about the filing of L. Clay Cable and Henry D. Shaffer for the council seat vacated by the death of Mayor Max V. Capper in April.
The visiting Episcopal clergy at Allison’s consecration include the Rev. John W. Yates of Falls Church, Virginia (then rector of The Falls Church) and the Rev. Fleming P. Rutledge of Rye, New York (the now-prominent Episcopal preacher, then in parish ministry on Long Island Sound). The Charleston bank’s permanent address is 151 Meeting St. (the Liberty National Bank Building). C. FitzSimons Allison was consecrated bishop coadjutor of the Diocese of South Carolina by Presiding Bishop John M. Allin in late September 1980; the front-page article whose continuation is pasted here is preserved on p324.
