He has tilled hie position witb such ability, and he and his es- timable wife have shown themselves such good citizens, that not only the people of Knox church. but the towns- people generally, will be loth to lose them. It Is to be hoped some arrange- ment may be made by which Knox churcb may be assured of having Mr. Mucbury's services again after the war is over. For some time Mr. Sunbury has been hearing the call tr• his noon - try's service more and more insistent.' lye and he has finally been able to overcome the difficulties in the way of enlistment.
