BARN BAISING.—On Wednesday of
last week, there assembled about 80
stalwart yeomen at the farin of Alex,
McDonald, to raise his barn when two
captains were selected; Mr.Wm. Bawl -
mean and Mr. Wm. Monteith, the
former taking choice of sides, the
latter the choice of men. When the
men were equally divided they started
to raise the frame under the exper-
:helloed framer, Mr. J. Brintnell of
Exeter. Everything went together
well. The captains handled their men
in such good shape that onlookers
thought it was pretty hard to tell who
was going to win. The side under
Captain Monteith made an extra, spurt
and came out victorious by three Children Cry for
irafters, after which all sat down to
.McDonald.

hardships, privations, and the thrilling
incidents of early pioneer life. Early

hen, and they settled on lob 8, con. 1,

But this report would be incom-
plete without at least a mention of the
deeply impressive ordination service
of the Sabbath. The Missionary meet-
ing of the afternoon was ren3arkably
blessed by God. Not only was there
an earnest consecration of hearts and

operation in the interests of the Con-
ference, and to the choir of the con-
gregation for their service and in-
