ilk -Presentation. On Monday evening of
last week the congregation of the Blue -
vale Presbyterian church presented Mr.
and Mrs. John Robertson with an easy
chair eauh, and a complimentary address,
which was read by the minister, Rev.
W: J. West. A very pleasant time was
spent by all those present. Mr. Robert-
son sold his farm last fall and bought a
house in Wroxeter, where he and Mrs.
Robertson with their two youugest
daughters, Misses Maggie and Jessie,
will live retired. Mr. and Mrs. Robert-
son have lived ou the farm which they
levee sold for more than thirty years.
We are very sorry 'indeed to lose ,them.
The following is the address:—
Mr. John Robertson and Mrs. Robertson.
FR'n• Nns,—It is with deep re-
gret we learn of your early removal
from our midst aucl we take thiQppor-
tnnity'of expressing our appreciation of
the friendship and social relation which
yon havo done much to promote in our
locality during the many years of your
residence iu Bluevale. Your coining to
this locality has been productive of
iiiu.cli good, when our country was in
process of development you were not
backward in doing your utmost for its.
progress, especially iu a moral and a
spiritual sense, and have always proved
faithfully in the discharge of duties in
connection with our church hero. Wo
cannot look back over the thirty or more
years yon have spent with us in the
Master's work without seeing marks of
.your presence with us. When called
upon to undertake work for Him you
were always ready to do your best.
Anel to you Mr. Robertson, many of us
owe a deep debt of gratitude for the
helpful lessons you taught us while
teaching in the Sabbath school, lessons
which, we trust, havo boon fruitful in
the 'unfolding of the groat mysteries of
Godliness and of leading many of us to
know our Divine Redeemer. As:mentb- -
ers of our church you have during those IS
many years shown yourselves i
to be very exemplary. We havo felt
that to you the church was a centre of
warmest interest, and that the work
was cheerfully performed because you
recognized the fact that it was a labor
of love. Uncousoiously you have ex-
emplified the truth aptly expressed by 1 -
Ruskin.
Ruskin. "That whenever the labors of i
life urs fulfilled in the spirit of 'striving
against, misrule, and doing whatever we t
have to do, honorably and perfectly,
they invariably bring happiness as much
as seems possible to the nattuo of man."
We ask you therefore to accept these e
chairs as a slight token of our sincere re-
gard and good will, hoping that you will
be long spared to make use of them, and
that they may recall in the fttture the
kindly relations that have always exist- 1
eel between yourselves and es during thb
thirty years you havo been members itt s
full communion. with its in tho Bluevale
Presbyterian church, We wish you
much pleasure in your now horse and
that you may prove a blessing in the s
village where yon nurposa to rosier in 1
the future'.
