HISTORICAL SKETCH

During hla sitz years of faitbtt•,1 and
highly appreciated ministration, the
congregation inoreaeed in numbers,k
and an addition Was built to the
north end of the church, The Percen-

hut very few of the young people
understood mueic well enough to make
it a success,
About the year 1872 the hymns were
introduced. That was a sore inova-
tion in the views of some of the old
Scotch covenanters, The matter of

'� sloe by Synod or General Assembly.
When the Session took the matter up,
•` the &at motion was "That nothing
.should be ased in Divine Worship but
gat the 'Inspired Word". That, seemed
1 to be the consensus of opinion held by
the Puritan Elders, The Sgperinten-

saying that the congregation had

the Sabbath School, He asked, "Was
he to teach the children that those
beautiful hymns of Isaac Watts, Bish-
op Heber, the Wesleye', Bonar, and
McObeyne and others, were not in
spited? Had there been no inspira-
tion since the time of the Apostles?"
The Session, after seriously considering
the matter, decided not to oppose the
adoption of the hymns if the congre.
gation wished to`use them. The use
of the hymns was then adopted by the
congregation.
In a few years, the church again be-
came too small, and an addition was
built to the east side of it.
In the year 1870, the Wingham con-
gregation, feeling itself sufficiently
strong to maintain a pastor, the union
re of the three station was dissolved.
Rev. Mr. Pritchard retained Bluevale'
and Eadie's. He was called to his re•
wand some twelve years ago. Wing-
'� ham received the services of Rev.
Hector McQuarrie at a stipend of $700.
He was inducted on the 24th of April,
1876, and William B. Hutton and John
7 Dickson were chosen as Eldere.
On the let of March, 1881, the
Church was accidently consumed by
fire. As the `Town of Wingham had
materiallychanged c g d since 1866, a new
site as well as a new church became
necessary. In the fifteen years' life of
the old church, the congregation had
about doubled its membership, and
financially, the condition of the people
had also changed, The farms were

Oa Wednesday, June 7th, a very
l,retty wedding. was solemnized at Sao•
red lleairt church, St, Augustine, when
Miss Clara Marotta Foran, daughter
of Mrs. Anna Foran and the late J.

Mr, John McCormick, formerly' of

tulle veil and wreath of orange bloss-
oms and parried a shower bouquet of
hridal roses and lily -of -the -valley,
She was attended by her sister, Mies

wool taffeta, with hat to match, and.
carried a bouquet of sweet peas and
maidenhair fern. The groom was
supported by his brother, Thomas, of
Linwood. After the ceremony, which
was performed by Rev. Father Dean,
the bridal party accompanied by the
immediate relatives motored to the
home of the bride's another, where a
sumptuous dinner was served. The
groom's gift to the bridesmaid was a
beautiful cameo necklace and to the
groom amen a pair of gold cuff -links
with initials engraved. In the evening
about one hundred invited guests
gathered at the bride's home and spent
the evening in euchre and dancing till
dawn, when the bride and groom left
amidet showers of confetti for a trip to
the coast, where they will spend some
time visiting the bride's brother before
returning to their home in Toronto,
where the groom is an employee of the
C. P. R. The bride travelled in a suit
of blue silk taffeta with pink silk crepe
de-chene blouse, and a blue hat to

toria street and Lower Wingham had
about equal shares of the business.
The site chosen was considered fairly
central. When the Grand Trunk
Railway was built and the station
being local e9 at the north east side of
the Town Plot, Josephine street be-
came the business portion of the town,
the old site was no longer central, and
a new one had to be chosen. A great
deal of trouble was engendered over
the choice of a new site. Finally, the
one where the church now stands, ow.
sidethe Town Plot was selected, and
was again considered fairly central.
The present beick building was erected
in the s nm m e r of ]881. The
opening ceremonies were held in
the spring of 1882, During the intrem
the services were held in the Town
Hall. In the year 1803, Rev. H. Mo'
Qoarrie resigned the charge after
having done noble work for seventeen
years in the service of his Master. He
is now living retired in Toronto.
In 1894, our present pastor, Rev. D.
Perrie, received a call and was induc-
ted Irf due order on the 15.h of Febru.
'try, 189.4. At this stage the congre-
gation is still enlarging and able to
pay better salaries. The minister's
stipend was $1,100 and a manse the
Precentor $150, the organist $50, and
the caretaker $175,
Dating the last 22 years,few had -
dents of importance have cceurred.
About the yea"r 1895, tme "St. An-

that t ime Mr. G. W. Oline r(ceivc d the
appointment of Choir Leader, an office
which he very ably filled for about
twenty years. During that time the
present pastor hes been going in and
out among us, attending faithfully to
the duties of his calling, visiting the
sick and other wants of his people, and
fulfilling the ministrations of the pul-
pit with that marked fervor and fresh-
ness both intellectually and spiritually,
which cannot fail to leave a benefical
and lasting impression upon the
hearts of his people.
This brings the history of St. An-
drew', Church from its inception to
the present time, In the year 1866,
the number of communicants was a
little over one hundred, and the num-
ber nn the roll is lhow 430. Tho milt•
istat's salary is $1,850 00, salary of the
organist and choir leader 5500,00. The
annual revenue and expenditure is
some $4750. The congregation is now
enjoying peace and prosperity and is
clear of debt."

One way in which the war is mani-
festing its baneful influence is in drain-
ing from schools and colleges, young
men of military age.
Especially is this felt in the resident-
ial institutions of all the chrietian
denominations. The annual meetings
of these bodies which have jun been
held make this abundantly plain.
THE BAPTISTS MEET THE DIE FicuLTY
In order to make good their loss in
both financial income and in etudente,
the Baptists of Ontario and Quebec are
having a special campaign. In all
their churches in these two provinces
they observe Sunday June 25th as Ed-
ucational Day. They propose to raise
$20,000 in cash and pledges, The
forces area rallied. The "drive" . is on..
Each minister is to handle the matter
in his own church.
Our readers may be interested to see
how it is done in the Baptist church
near where they live.
They want students, too for McMas-
ter University and for Moulton Ladies'
College, both of which are well known
institutions located in Toronto,; and
young men and boys for Woodstock
College in the city of Woodstock, Ont-
ario. The two last named are resident
echools notable for their excellent
equipment and moderate charges.
They prepare students for matricula-
tion in any University, and each has
a junior department.
They aim to develop the conscience
and the will as well as the intellect
and eo avoid the fatal effect of the
German schools. There will be abund-
ant need of ouch men and women•when
this terrible war is over, if our fair
Dominion is to rise to the high place
which all patriotic citizens covet for
it.

the deceased. The beautiful funeral

and lined the walk on the way to the
graveside while the body was borne to
its last resting place, where the im•
pressive burial service of the 0. 0. F.
was carried out by the members form-

Robert Nelson Duff was born on
March 8, 1851, at Roxboro' in the town-
ship of Hullett not far from Seafortb.
He was the younger son of Robt. J.
and Isabella Gerrond Duff . who had
not long previously settled in Canada.
One of the most vivid recollections of
his childhood was the journey north in
March, 1856, when he was five years of
age, to the thick bush in the township
of Turnberry where a clearing was
made on the sixth concession which
remained the family home for many
years. After working at farm work
for a time`lia secured employment in a
sawmill which was run by John Gem -
mill on the sixth concession, and from
that time sawmilling became his life
occupation. In 1873 he married his
now bereaved wife, Miss Anne Jane
Elliott of Wawanoeh, daughter of Jas.
Elliott, Fermanagh, Ireland, and after
living for a time at Moncton and Car-
munnoch, sawmilling centres in Perth
County, came to Bluevale in 1875
where bis home continued to be until
his death. After working in the em-
ploy of Bailey and Thynne who owned
the old sawmill at the station in those
days, he formed a partnership with
the late C. J. Reading to takeover the
ownership of the business which was
carried on by this firm for a number of
years. In '1889 ha became associated
with Mr. Thos. Stewart under the firm
name of Duff & Stewart. They bought
the Leech eaw mill on the rive, bank
and for twenty-seven years a success.
ful sawmilling and general lumber
business has been carried on to which
from time to time has been added coal,
cement and other'lines, On two oc-
casions the sawmill was burned to the
ground but was both times rebuilt. In
190.6 the chopping mill and water pow-
er was bought from the late Joe. Leech
and operated by the firm until last
year when it was sold to Mr. Chas.
Garniss of Morris.
Report Erroneous
We noticed the following item in
the London Advertiser the day after
we re -printed their item stating that
Chas. Rintoul of Whiteehurcb, was
dead.
It was erroneously reported in the
Advertiser under. Wingham date -
1 ne that Ohms. Rintoul of White -
eh arch had died. The correspondent
who sent the item in had beard it
on what he considered good author-
ity, but this paper is pleased to pub-
lish a denial on the information of
Mr. Rintoul himself, who cheerfully
draws attention to the error and
adds:"I would like to know when
the funeral is to be held as I will
have to he at horse that day.
I am quite well and am parrying
the mail here between the station
and P. 0."
It is not every one who has the priv-
ilege of reading his own obituary and
Mr. Rintoul is one of the few. How-
ever, THE ADVANCE does not take any
delight in writing out death notices
and we will in future get our inform-
ation from Prime other source than the
London Advertiser before re -publish-
ing it. Here's hoping that it may
never be our sad duty to write out Mr.
Rintoul's funeral notice again.

Gone from the joy and the gladness,
Gone from the light and the cheer,
Gone from the paths that he brightened,
Always with tranquil content. ,

Ceased all the toil and the care,
Never again to be burdened,
Never a heart ache to bear.
