the Stratford Huron Presbyterial of the
Women's Missionary Society (W.D.) of the
Presbyterian Church in Canada at Knox
$r'esbyterian Church, Goderich, Wednes-

sary (1885-1985) of the Huron Presbyterial
Women's Missionary Society with the Ar-
thur Circle and W.M.S. Afternoon Auxiliary
(W.D.) of Knox as hostesses.

G.. Lockhart Royal of Knox and business of
the meeting commenced.
There were eight missionary groups in the
Huron Presbyterial before amalgamation
with Stratford Presbyterial; one of which
joined the Maitland Presbyterial. Short
histories of these groups proved interesting
and showed them to be active organizations
with a wonderful heritage. Mrs. G. Hender-
son read the Auburn W.M.S. report as well
as Knox W.M.S. Afternoon Auxiliary report;
the Arthur Circle of Knox report was given
by Mrs. Bert McCreath; Belgrave W.M.S.

be present but her letter was read; Mrs.
W.J. Thompson, Mrs. Jack Pollock, Mrs.
Elmer Rivers, 1171rs. Robert McAllister and
Mrs. S. Peebles all received a gift of a cor-
sage.
Mrs. R. McAllister, President Knox
W.M.S. Afternoon Auxiliary, introduced the
guest speaker, Mary Jade Bisset; who is a
mission worker in the London Presbytery.
The message "Christianity is more than a
tradition - it is a Hope" was practical and
enlightening. The W.M.S. is the backbone
for Missions, she told the group. Mrs. R. Mc-
Call
o-Call thanked the speaker and presented her
with a gift while commenting that the Socie-
ty is the backbone and it is our responsibility
to reach out in love.
Courtesies were given by Mrs. A.L. Hog-
garth of Hensall W.M.S. While the offering
was being received, Mrs. Robert McCallum
favoured with a solo "The Lord is My Light"
accompanied by Lome Dotterel., organist.
Mrs. E. River of Seaforth led the
members in the Closing Worship Litany
followed by prayer by the president and
Benediction by Rev. G.L. Royal.
The meeting offered much to all with the
zeal to go forward with the missionary
challenge as our goal "The World for
Christ".

II
Charles P. Dunlop
The death, Saturday, May 4th, at Huron -
view, of 100 -year-old Charles P. Dunlop,
removes from Huron County one of its oldest
citizens.
He was born September 23rd, 1884, at the
"Dunlop Homestead" on the Bayfield Road
about five miles south of Goderich and was
the son of the late Hugh/Kate (Stewart),
Dunlop.
Along with his younger brother, Robert
and sister Alice, he attended a one room
rural school in the township.
After acquiring his elementary educa-
tion, he went to work at an early age; for a
number of years he ,was employed in
God1erfcn, `first as a Iaborer ata sawmill at
Goderich harbor. Later, he was a
"messenger" fora former Goderich lawyer,
named `Dancey'.
While still a young man, he moved to
Eastern Ontario. During the era of the First
World War (1914-'18) he was employed at an
Oshawa factory where steel ranges (kitchen
stoves) and accessories were manufac-
tured. Following World War I, he moved to
Toronto where he started working for the 'T.
Elkton Dept. Store' Firm as a sewing
.,,autulle serviceman.
While in Toronto, he met a young girl from
Owen Sound. Later, Harriett Thompson
became the wife of Chas. P. Dunlop and the
couple resided in Toronto a number of
years. She predeceased him.
Following his retirement, Mr. Dunlop
returned in 1957, to his hometown. While a
resident in Goderich, he was a tenant, for
more than 20 years, at the home of Mrs.
Margaret Oliver, at 92 St.David Street.

home for the aged, Huronview, south of Clin-
ton.
Last September on the occasion of his
100th Birthday, Clinton News -Record "staf-
fer", Anne Narejko interviewed the
century -old citizen who then aft ibuted his
long life to "plenty of sleep, relaxation and
careful dieting" and, "abstaining from
alcohol and tobacco". Ironically, Mr.
Dunlop's "room -mate! at Huronview, Nor-,
man Ball, reached the century milestone on-
ly a couple of days after Mr. Dunlop's birth-
day.
Both Huronview residents were pic-
tured/profiled in a September (19th), 1984
edition of the News Record in connection
with the "double celebration".
During his latter years in Goderich he was
unable to attend any church service, but,
when it was first established in 1963, Mr.
Dunlop attended services at Calvary Baptist
on Bayfield Road, Goderich. While in Toron-
to, he was a member of the Non -
Denominational, People's Church.
