REV. COLLINS RESIGNS. -Rev.
D. W. Collins, who hashed charge. of
the Trivitt Memorial church, Exeter,
during the past ten years, has resign
ed as rector of this parish and has ac-
cepted the call extended him by the
congregation of the Church of the
+ascension at Windsor, where he and
his most worthy family will remove
about the first of April #Its. depar-
ture strikes all as be' a distinct loss
to our community„ As a preacher
and rector the'reverend gentleman has
wont thelove and esteem, of not only
his own congregation but also of the
community as a whole. His. career in
the ministry has been so successful
and his able qualifications for filling
enlarged spheres, little surprise could
be lett t1.t Windsor or some other
larger centre recognizing his splendid
taelnt Perhaps as high a compliment
as can be paid Mr. Collins is that •he
wears well, and 'that he is more highly
thought of as he labors; on from: year
to year. He has performed his duties
earnestly, faithfully and with marked
intelligence in Exie'ter, and as a result
the Trivitt Memorial has prospered
under his charge. It can therefore
be' understood that his removal will
be. a decided loss to Exeter, and at
deep felt regret to his. many admiring
friends For our own part we are
deeply sorry to see Mr. Collins leave
Exeter: ,taut for his own and for his
family's sake we heartily congratulate
him• on the change. Windsor is a de-
lightful city and one of the most de-
sirab:e communities in Ontario to live
in.
