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.

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'. Higued on 1x1in1f of the Presby'tcr'au' congregation. 1..,v W. J.Weete M.
