    Excerpts of  "History of Fairview Presbyterian Church of
    Greenville County, South Carolina
    ENTRANCE COLUMNS, WALLS AND STEPS
    The following was adopted by the congregation and ordered inscribed on
    the pages of the Sessional record in 1931.  From the records of March 15, 1931,
    the idea came from Dr. H. G. Stewart and he also suggested that the names be put
    in a bottle in the wall.  "By way of information to the finders of this document-
    The wall and piers now in process of erection (1931) is (sic) being built
    largely of field  gathered  from the lands of the organizers of Fairview
    Church in 1786 and to their memory and all others that have served this church
    in whatsoever capacity and with them have passed on to their eternal records
    and with hearts full of love and gratitude, we, their survivors are
    placing these stones to their memory.
