carried out and thoroughly appreciated
by the large congregations present.

listened to with eager interest by
audiences that packed the church to

the people. After the service Mr.
Little was escorted to the door and in-
troduced to the various members of
the congregation as they passed out.

was the presenting of an appreciative
address and a purse to the interim
moderator, Rev. J. S. Duncan, by rep-
resentatives of the two chut•ches. For
the tea -meeting an audience had
gathered which completely filled the
church. After a hot fowl supper bad
