Upper clipping — lead article with small portrait at right (captioned ALLISON):

Episcopalians To Consecrate Bishop

Co-consecrators and examiners will be the Rt. Rev. Gray Temple, bishop of South Carolina; the Rt. Rev. George M. Alexander, retired bishop of Upper South Carolina; the Rt. Rev.

AI Notes

Two newspaper clippings pasted to the album page. The upper clipping carries a small portrait captioned ‘ALLISON’ and is the lead article ‘Episcopalians To Consecrate Bishop,’ announcing the upcoming consecration of the Rev. Dr. C. FitzSimons Allison as bishop coadjutor of the Episcopal Diocese of South Carolina (the actual consecration took place 25 September 1980 at Gaillard Municipal Auditorium, Charleston). Below it is an unrelated clipping fragment about troops and warplanes — apparently a piece of newsprint that came with the Allison article and was pasted in incidentally. Lower-right of the page is a third unrelated narrow column fragment on Victorian-era social criticism. The co-consecrator from East Carolina is B. Sidney Sanders; Martha Allston Parker is from Georgetown, South Carolina; Trinity Episcopal School for Ministry is in Sewickley, Pa. The continuation reference reads ‘See BISHOP, Page 2-B, Col. 2.’

The lower two clippings appear to be unrelated to the Allison consecration story and are evidently column fragments cut from the same newspaper page.
