After o. noanoing the object of the

present, and then offered prayer. Mr,
Melklejohn was then sailed upon 10 lay

solemnly tieing the following words :—

Hope.
'In the name of the Father, and of the
Son, and of the Holy Spirit, I now de•
olere this atone well and truly laid.
Amen,"
Mrs. W. J. Hamilton then proceeded t0
lay the next atone, timidly but reverent-
ly, using the tams words. Mrs. Alex.
Edgar laid the third stone in the same
impressive manner as the others were
laid. The pastor then repeated the
words need so that tie many as poeeible
might hear, and added :
"In aoknowledgment of these sate this

he presented sliver trowels to each ot the

The Presbyterian people deeply appre.

the Metbodiet church in granting the use

so the patronage of the Orange body who
on Friday showed that they believed in
and honor the hoose of God.
=TOUT OF TBE CONGaseITIaN•
The oongregation bad its origin on the
snood concession of the township ot
Howlett. A considerable number of
Presbyterian lived along and oo either
gide of the line and were eompellad to
worship either at Wroxeter or Palmer.
Ston both of which places were far from
them. During the Summar of 1865 they
made an effort to eeoare religious 68071000
at some paint nearer them rather than
abandon the cbnreh of their fathers.
The bonne of Jas. MioLanghlin on lot 18
wag ealeoted as a eentral point, end, Mr.
McLaughlin gladly opened hie bonne for
the purpose, 88081085 were commenced by
ministers who ranee from Wroxeter, and
tbere the Presbytery of Huron organized
the oongregation which was then known
as "The Howlett Station," Linde', The
tete Wm. MfaLanghlin and Thoe. Welker
were elected and ordained to the elder-
ship and were thus the filet members of
session. A short time attet organizing
Mr. McLaughlin's house proved too
small and the oongregation enured the
school house neer by, now known ea
Cooper's wheel hoose, and for some
months continued to worebip there.
On January 4,
1860 the coegregatlon
Wee contained with Wroxeter which was
then vacant through the resignation of
the Rev. Mr. Young. The united ooa-
gregatione at ones proceeded to calla
minister and their choice wee the late
Rev. George Brown who had been a
minieter in the Waet Indian. Mfr. Brown
was indnoted on April 25, 1866, and for
12 years bore the burden of ministering
to the large district embraced by the two
congregations, and he, though now witb•
in the veli, still lives in the works which
foliow bane.
Shortly after Mr. Brawn's settlement

The oougregatiou aontiuuod to grow
steadily ander Mr• Brown's miniatry and
by the year 2875 numbered 72 eommnni-
cents with a large number of adherents,
and a feeling that the time had dome for
an advance step began to take root. By
that Gime a ooneiderable number of Prete
bytereans bad found a home in and
around Gerrie and were anxious to have
Presbyterian worship in that village.
A000rdingly a movement wee begun to
organiza a congregation there, to eeparate
Fordwioh from Wroxeter and join it with
Gerrie. Oa the 8.h October, 1878, the
Presbytery of 13urou ordered these
°bungee to be made, end the pulpit of
Fordwioh oongregation to be deolared
vacant on the last Sabbath of October of
that year. Tbie ant severed the Rev Mr.
Brown's 000000tid0 with the oongrega•
tion after a pastorate of twelve years.
Hie name and work are still fresh end
green in the memories and hearts of the
older members of the oongregation.
For tome time after the onion with
Gerrie the two oougregetione were ander
one session but on eugnet 9, 1800, Thos:
Walker was 13aneferred to the Gerrie
congregation and on August 29813 of the
same year Wm. Giles and Alex. Little.
john were ordained to the eldership of
the oongregation. The congregation
beard probationers for about a year be-
fore they agreed to call the Rev. Thoe,
Muir who wee included in the Fall of
1870.
The oongregation about that time par.
elapsed the present manseground eudfor
the first time had a minister residing
amongst there. Mr. Moir, under the
strain of physical weakness and family
bereavements, labored faitbfally on until
1891 when be resigned leaving his name
and character deeply written on many
hearts. He ie now oat of active mdnfa-
teasel work and is residing in British
Columbia. Under hie Mb:UAL), the
membership grew to 100 whioh was the
number on the roll at the beginning ot
the present pastorate. Four years ba -
fore Mfr. Kuir'e resignation the session
wae.iuoreaaed by the election and ordina•
tion of .3. H. Johnston and A. Robinson,
who were ordained to the eldership on
January 18th, 1887. The late James
Hatohineon was elected at the same time
but declined to an. After Mr. Muir's
teeignatinn in 1891 the oongregation war
vacant for two years and nine months
which

On February 1, 1894, the present pas.
tor, Rev. A. B. Dobson, was inducted
having been called from Willie obarch,

Dear Sir,—Wilk the greatest of pleas.
are I write to testify the merita'of your
System Renovator end Speciflo Cure.
Notwithstanding good nursing and all
that oonid be done for my boy, he der.
thinly would have diad only for your
remedies. He ie now in perfeot health.
My boy was at death's door with Bright's
disease and some symptoms of diabetes,
hie feet and hands swelled at time°, The
local dootore failed to help him. We had
to apply hot salt oontinaally over all the
joints of hie body to relieve the pain, hie
joints often turned black. At this time
he had a false appetite, a craving for
food all the time and for cold water as
well. We heard of you from a friend
who had taken your medicine for the
same trouble and was cured. Then my
eldest eon went to Goderioh for the medi-
cine last October and as my sink boy be-
gan taking them, improvement followed
every dose. He let now well, stout and
active es ever be was, and is going to
school every del. I am ante you will
have oar beet wishes as long ae you live.
I am, your° truly,
Mev. K, Enna.
