M, J, TATE Secretary Treasurer A memorable occasion in the history of Knox Church, Bluevale, took place on the evening of Tuesday, Feb, 15, when, having cleared their fine new church edifice of debt, the members, adherents ' and friends of the con- gregation gathered, to Witness the. buening of the mortgage, The event was celebrated by an oyster supper in the sebooiroom of the church, at the conclusion of which the ceremony of burning the mortgage took place in the auditorium upstairs, whish was filled by a large and interested audience. Rev, Crawford Tate, pastor of the con- gregation was the master of ceremonies and after an opening chorus by the Chem, he introduced the subject of the evening, giving a brief review of the history of the congregation which was first organized in the year 1856, so that the present year is the Diamond Jubilee of the church. The early services were held in the log houses of the settlers, then in the village schuol,house which was later turned into the residence which now stands to the north east of the church. In 1886 a frame church was erected which stood till 1907 when the , present structope was built at a cost of $8,000, entailing a great deal of sacrifice, many hard days' labor and Much generosity on the part of the people, but which ,has well repaid their efforts by the pleasure and service it has rendered by its ,convenience and beauty. Mr Tate then asked Mrs. Thynne and Mr. Jas. Elliot. two of the oldest members of the cog g t' e is e e e e s n re a lou to come foreward and take seats at th table, on which stood a silver tray an matehholder. Mr. Elliot in returnin thanks for the honor done Mrs. Thyme and himself humorously suggested thaor the honwas due to the fact that h and Mrs. Thynne wereethe hest look% couple in the congregation. Mr. P. S. MacEwen, representing th Trustees, then prepared the mortgag for burning, which was held on th silver tray by Mrs. Thynne, while Mr ,. Elliot applied the matchwhich set the document on fire and as it burned away the congregation rose and sang "Praise God from Whom all Blessing Flow." At the conclusion of the cere mony, Mr. Robt, Black, chairman of the Board of Managers, was called forward and in a few pleasant words, presented the silver tray and matehholder to Mrs. Thynne and Mr. Elliot respectively, an behalf of the congregation. Each article was engraved' with the followiirg inscription, "In Memoriam from Knox Church, Bluevale, at the burning°oi the mortgage, Feb. 16th, 1916." Mr. Tate then referred to the numerous tetters of regret he had re'eived frorn those who had been unable to accept the in- vitation to be present, and he read aloud two o t afters of special interest, one from the former pastor, Rev. W. J. West, to whose enthusiasm the in- ception of the building was so largely due, and the other from Mr. Robt. Maxwell,one of the fathers d the con- gregation. Rev. D. D. Thompson of the Methodist Church and It:ev. T, AI, Wesley, of Wroxeter, were present and gave brief addtes'ses of encouragement and good eounsel and solos were sung by Miss Barbara Thynne, of Palmerston, Miss Agnes Aitchison,Miss Carrie Diamond and Mr. P.
