Burke, 220-221 On the third Sunday of November, 1860, the Rev. Jethro Rumple began his work as pastor of the Salisbury Church, and continued 221 HISTORY OF ROWAN COUNTY until the present time. During the twenty years of his ministry there have been two hundred and forty additions to the church. In closing this sketch there are two or three facts that may interest the reader. The first is, that from the beginning this church maintained a well conducted Sunday School, in which many of the most devoted members of the congregation were teachers. The principal superintendents of the Sunday School have been, Thomas L. Cowan, J. J. Blackwood, Colonel Samuel Lemly, D. A. Davis, Philip L. Sink, William Murdock, J. J. Bruner, Samuel H. Wiley, and J. D. McNeely. Most of those who are now members of the church were once pupils in the Sunday School, and received their early religious impressions in that nursery of the church. Another element of success in the church has been its earnest and faithful office-bearers, embracing many of the most highly esteemed and influential citizens of the town. The ruling elders have been as follows: Albert Torrence, Thomas L. Cowan, Dr. Alexander Long, Michael Brown, Samuel Le mly, Philip L. Sink, D. A. Davis, J. J. Bruner, William Murdock, Thomas McNeely, Dr. J. J. Summerell, J. S. McCubbins, Julius D. McNeely, E. H. Marsh, H. A. Knox, and Orin D. Davis. The deacons have been Julius P. Ramsay, J. J. Summerell, M. D., Obadiah Woodson, John D. Brown, James S. McCubbins, J. A. Bradshaw, John A. Ramsay, John M. Horah, Julius D. McNeely E. H. Marsh, J. K. Burke, T. B. Beall, R A. Knox, Theodore F. Kluttz, Samuel H. Wiley, W. L. Kluttz, and Hugh M. Jones. 248, Among the names of the old ante-Revolutionary Churchmen was Alexander Martin, who lived in Salisbury until Guilford County was erected. He had a brother who was a clergyman of the Church of England, and lived in Virginia. The former was quite a distinguished man. He was a prominent lawyer by profession, and was frequently commissioned by the crown to bold the District Court at Salisbury. He presided over the Court which was held on the first day of June, 1775, during the sitting of which Captain Jack passed through on his way to the Continental Congress at Philadelphia, with the Mecklenburg “Resolves” of the thirty-first of May. He was a colonel in the Continental Army, and fought under LaFayette at the battle of Brandywine. He was elected Governor of the State in 1782, and again in 1789. He was also Governor in 1781, during the enforced absence of Governor Burke, who had been captured by the Tory Colonel Fannen, of Chatham. He never married. The last office he held was that of United Stat es Senator, to which he was elected in 1799. He died in 1807. 283, PAYMASTER’S DEPARTMENT Joseph K. Burke, 2d.
