BISHOP WALLS AT BROADWAY TEMPLE There will be a very special service at Broadway Temple A. M. E. Zion Church Sunday night, September 15, at 7 o'clock. At this time Presiding Bishop W. J. Walls will pay his first episcopal visit to this congregation since the Kentucky Conference has been with the Eighth District. McFALL MARRIAGE RECEPTION IS BIG DETROIT EVENT - Undertaker's Palatial Home Could Not House Friends; Ridley Business To Continue Here - By Special Correspondent Detroit, Mich., Sept. 12.--The marriage reception of Mr. Benjamin Julius McFall of Detroit, Mich., and Mrs. Allerita Fuller Ridley McFall of Louisville, Ky., was held at the palatial home of the groom, 714 E. Canfield Avenue, Detroit, Friday evening, August 30, commencing at 8 o'clock p. m. Mrs. Allerita Fuller McFall, the bride, is a native of Terrell, Texas. She is the widow of the late A. B. Ridley, founder and owner of the Ridley Funeral Parlors of Louisville, Ky. The late Mr. Ridley was rated as one of the country's foremost undertakers, financiers and business men of high ideals and great moral character and built a funeral establishment comparable to any in the country, of which the citizens of Louisville and the race throughout the country are justly proud. The same fine quality of service, courtesy and high efficiency which characterized the ideals of its founder have been continued under the direct management of his widow, now Mrs. McFall. Mr. Benjamin Julius McFall, the groom, was born in Valdosta, Ga., and received his primary and high school training in his native home and his college work at the Georgia State and Industrial College of Savannah. He completed his professional training at the Warham College of Embalming of Chicago and the Cincinnati College. Mr. McFall began his business career in the city of Detroit in 1925 as a junior member of the McFall Brothers, undertakers. The growth and standard of the business, as well as its financial success, is the pride of the city of Detroit and today this well known firm compares favorably with any of its kind anywhere in the country. Mr. B. J. [MeFall is a black church-?] (Continued on page 4) [Photo] MRS. ALLERITA RIDLEY McFALL PATROLMAN CHARLES MILES SHOT BY WOMAN; DIES AT HOSPITAL Patrolman Charles Miles, 34, 406 S. 20th Street, well known colored officer died at the city hospital Wednesday at 7:15 a. m., where he was taken early Monday morning suffering from six bullet wounds in his body. In the Jefferson County jail is lodged Miss Mary Emma Smith, 26, whose charge of shooting and wounding was changed to manslaughter Wednesday. The blood transfusion given by his sister, Mrs. Frances Spencer, failed to save the officer. According to Mrs. Spencer, Miles who had been on duty on the Steamer Idlewild, was asleep when Miss Smith, who was employed to care for Miles' children, came in. She had been on the same boat and after exchanging some words, took Miles' own gun and shot him as he lay in bed. He was conscious until death and conversed with his sister. Patrolman Miles was born in Maud and was one of the latest officers appointed on the police force, and often worked with Patrolman W. M. Scott. Funeral services will be held in Bardstown Saturday. Besides his sister, Mrs. Frances Spencer of this city, Patrolman Miles is survived by a sister, two children in Bardstown and an estranged wife. CHURCHMAN [Photo] O. M.

Church, the place now held by Dr. John R. Hawkins of Washington, D. C. Mr. Travis has received the endorsement of his annual conference and he may be elected when the A. M. E. General Conference meets in 1936. Mr. Travis is also a prominent fraternal and political leader. He was in Louisville to the meeting of the Republican leaders of the state this week. IN AUTO CRASH EARLY SUNDAY John Andrews and his wife of 2005 W. Walnut Street were painfully injured early Sunday morning when their Ford car, which Mr. Andrews was driving, was struck by Charles Jones, white, 2201 Speed Avenue, the drunken driver of a Studebaker sedan.

Andrews, who was knocked unconscious, received a badly bruised arm while his wife suffered a sprained back and foot. Misses Willie Mae Strewther, 2911 W. Walnut, and Louise McClaskey, 2501 St. Xavier, also occupants of the Andrews car, sustained bruises about the head and legs.
