Rev. A.B. Earle, pastor of the Lyttleton Street Methodist church, Camden, died in that city last week. His health began failing some six months ago and despite his patient efforts for relief he had been gradually growing weaker. His father and several brothers died in their prime of the same malady and Mr. Earle looked upon his illness as fatal from the first attack.
He was born in Charleston on February 4, 1865, and spent his boyhood days in that city. At 1887 he was graduated from Wofford College and shortly afterwards entered in the ministry. He has been a member of the South Carolina Conference for 17 years. On June 15, 1887, he married Miss Carrie Kirby of Spartanburg, who with eight children survive him. Mr. Earle was well-known in Oconee county, having at one time been pastor of the Methodist church at Seneca, where he and his family resided for three years. He was a brothers-in-law of Rev. E.S. Jones of Walhalla, they having married sisters. The Presiding Elder, Rev H.B. Browne, conducted the funeral service at the Lyttleton Street church Wednesday afternoon and the remains were interred in the Quaker cemetery.
