Rev. Alexander MacMillan, P.D. —The officials of the Auburn Cen- tenary held in 1955 were disap- pointed that Rev: Dr. Alexander MacMillan and his son, Sir Ernest, were unable to attend the celebra- tions .at that time, as he was visit- ing his native country of Scotland and Sir 'Ernest was on a musical tour of British Columbia. How- ever, they assured the committee, God -willing, he would make every effort to come to Auburn to cele- brate the 70th year of his ordin ation. 'He visited here to com- memorate his 60th year with Sir Ernest and his daughter, Miss Jean, len years ago. Below is a letter received late last week by Rev. R. S. Hiltz from, .Rev. Dr. A. Mac- Millan: "Dear 1VIr. Hiltz,—You have been told, doubtless by Mr. As- quith, after he had called on me here some months ago that the 7oeh year of my ordained ministry would arrive at the end of Septem- ber of the present year, and that I should be able to be present at that time. I would be glad indeed to come to Auburn over a week- end. Doubtless you have heard that I became at the .age of 22, the young minister of Auburn and Smith's Hill Presbyterit.0 Churches in the year 1887; that I hsive always cherished a happy memory of 'my four years' ministry there and have visited the congregation from time to time since then, including the 66th annivtgrsary of my ordained ministry, ten years ago. I was :irda.iied by the Presbytery of Huron in Smith's Hill church on September 26, 1887 and preached my first sermon in Auburn the following Sunday. Now that we have reached 1957, I have been an ordained minister of The Presby- terian Church :u Canada and later United Church throughout the long period of 70 years. It was my first desire to come to Auburn in order to give thanks for that long ordained ministry, but now that the time has arrived I find that physical weakness does not allow the fulfilment of this desire. I am obliged, therefore, :n the great regret to abandon this hope and to communicate through you to the 'elders and people in Auburn and the Hill district my affection- ate greetings and assurance of my abiding interest. Therefore, c►i Sunday, September 20, please give to them this message that through- out my long ministry I have held them in my heart's affection and send them best wishes for pros- perity and happiness and my bless- ing. For you, I wish 'every good for a long and happy ministry such as has been my privilege to enjoy. Vours sincerely, Alexander Mac- Millan." Much publicity has been given this honored gentleman in the ,Toronto papers last week. Ne is 93 years old and Nieven, misses a church service.
