DAVID WVIM-We as members of Sunshine church and Sunday. School have iearned with sorrow that owing to failing health you have decided to give up farming and move away from this neighborhood. You shall be greatly, missed by all as a kind and obliging neighbor, and especially' missed by us In the various departments of our church work. You. have been prominently identified with this church from its inception until the present. As a Steward you have been faithfid and accurate and always one of the first to .be present at the meeting of the Official Board. As a Sunday School teacher your services have been much appreciated and our clan has had. a prominent part :in arranging this evening's programme. Wear e so indebted to God for your services, and feel so keenly our loss by your removal that we have met to- gether to ask you to accept this chair for your- self, this cruet for your sister, Elizabeth, and this clock for your sister. Minnie, whose pro- longed illness has been the occasion of much sympathy and sorrow. We hope that you. in the future may look upon these gifts as something which you prize, not so much for their real worth, as for the affection and re- spect of which they are a token. We hope you may have good health and much prosper- ity in your future home, and that surrounded by Christian friends, and strengthened by help Divine, the remainder of your life may be in- creasingly happy and useful. As this is East- ertide we feel constrained to give you this parting apostolic benediction. "Now the God of Peace. that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant. make you perfect in every good. work to do his will, working in you that which is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ to whom be glory for ever and ever, Amen."
