We, the "members of South Huron
Ministerial Association, in session as-
sembled, having learned that Rev. D.
'W. Collins rector of Trivia Memor-
ial Church, has offered himself toHis
Majesty King George -a soldier ;n be-
half. of his country --do hereby pla e
on record our profound gratitude for
such manifested patriotism, and our
prayer is that he may he used of God
in thii the greatest world's onflict,
as ono in the bringing in of perpetual
peace. Mr. Collins in this self -giving
has shown a worthy example for all
to copy Addenda,—Since the above
action we have been informed through
aflicial data that Mr. Collins, though
aff exec a captaincy, failed to pass a
meriica' examination, sufficient tovuar
antee ,his undertaking the strenuous-
ness of the long forced marches upon
tht: field' of battle, therefore his army
surgeon would not grant the health
certificate necessary. However•, with
heroic spirit, which, cannot be 'oiled,
Mr, Collins now offers himself as
chaplain to His Majesty's forces. se.-
ing he is deprived as a regular army
officer We most highly, command Air
Collins for his zeal and consecration

King Signed by committee on behalf
