JUBILEE SERVICES
Historical Sketch of Eadies' Presby
,, terian Church
The Jubilee services of Eadies' Pres.
byterian Church were held last Sab•
t.atb. There were three services..
The Rev, W, J, West, a former pastor
for nearly sixteen years, preached at
the morning service, Iiia sermon war
a fine clear exposition of the text "And
we know that all things work together
for good to them that love God."
It was a great pleasure to the congre-
gation to see the pleaoaut face and
hear the kindly voice of their beloved
former pastor,
In the afternoon the Rev, Jas, Has.
tie conducted an "old time service"
and took for hie subject "Heaven"
Be gavo a fine address which was much
appreciated by the audience. Mr.
Hastie was the first pastor of the con-
gregation and it was most touching to
see in the pulpit the minister who
opened the church fifty years ago. At
this service, Mr. Eosins of Wingham, a
former Precentor, led the singing of
the Psalms,
Rey, Mr, Tato, the present pastor
took charge of the eveningservice and
preached on the subject of the place
the Word of God should have in the
Church and in the Christian life.
All the services were most intereet-
ing and many former members of the
church, frotn a distance as well as
many people from Bluevale and Wing -
harp were present. The congregations
were the largest in the history of the
ohureh,
At the entertainment on Monday
evening, Mr. Tate gave the following
historical sketch ofwthe church:—
The Township of Turnberry was
was opened for settlement in 1851.
Among the first settlers were many
staunch Preebyteriene from other parts
of the province and from the old land.
It was not until 1860, however, that
any movement was made to have the
ordinances of public worship establish-
ed in this locality. In February , of
that year Thomas Eadie and John Mc-
Tavish called a meeting of this neigh-
borhood, and it was decided to petition
the Preebytery of London to base
some one sent to preach. As a result
the Rev. J'obn Rennie by appointment
of that Presbytery visited the district
and on August 8th, 1860, preached in
the house of Mr. Thomas Eadie and
organized the congregation into a
mission station, —The following per.
sons gavo in their names as members:
Mr. and Mrs. Peter Deane, Mr. and
Mrs. Thomas Eadie, Mr. and Mrs. An-
drew Pringle, Mr. and Mrs. John
Ritchie, Mr, and Mrs. George Hutton,
Mr. and Mre. John Mair, Mrs. E. Flem-
ing, Mr. Walter Sloan, Mies Isabella
Sloan. For several years occasional
services were held usually in the barns
in summer and in the log school house
near the river during the winter, The
people usually walked to these eervices
but occasionally they came in wagons
drawn by oxen, a little hay in the
bottom of the rack, softening eomewhat
the jolts over the bare corduroy roads,
Among those who preached during
that time were the following:—J. B.
Taylor, Rev. W. 0, Young, Rev. Mr.
Leask, Mr. Jamieson, Mr. Hume and
Mr. Fraser. Mr. nestle came as stud-
ent and spent part of two summers on
the field preaching at Bluevale and
Wingham also, The congregations
were so well pleased with him, that
they decided to wait until he had fin-
ished his course at college and call him
as their minister. When the time
came Mr. Matte accepted the call and
was ordained and inducted in October
1866, as the first regular minister of
this church.
The year previous to Mr. Hastie'e
induction, the church was built, At a
meeting of the congregation on Feb.
ruary 13th, 1865, a building committee
was appointed consisting of David
Anderson, Thomas Aitken, 'Thomas
Fortune, William Mitchell, Thomas
L^'adie and Hugh McDougall, When
the site was chosen and plans eettled
on, the contract was let to Colin Mc-
Donald and Robert Aitken for the
sum of $187.00, the congregation to
suppiy all the material. On August
17th, 1805 about fifty men gathered
and the frame of the church was raised.
But owing to lack of lumber, the
building waif not finished until the
following summer, T..he seats were
made by sawing orf blocks of wood

LL.lstie preached hie first sermon in the
churcb on Oct. 28,b, 1866. His first
meeting of seseiou was held on Febru-
ary let, 1867, the elders being three
Thomases, Thos. Eadie, Thos, Aitken
and Time. Fortune. The first com-
munion held in the church was on
February 3rd of that year.
Mr, Hastie continued his weak in
Bluevale, Wingham and Ladies until
1809, when he withdrew from Eadies
as Wingham wished to have service
every Sabbath, Mr. Meth: Was an
earnest and devoted pastor and was
held in high esteem by all the congte.

This congregation was then joined
to Teeswater and along with that con-
gregation chose the Rev. David Ward -

into the charge on January 81st, I871.
He is lovingly remembered as a faith-
ful and painstaking pastor, tinder
