Farewell Party to Bev. F. L. Lewin
and Family
On Tuesday evening a huge sur-
prise party gathered in the home of
Mr. Chapman where Rev. and Mrs.
Lewin thought they were going to
spend a quiet evening.
The occasion was a farewell party
and presentation to the Lewin family
who are leaving Brussels to take
charge of the Anglican church at
Parkhill and Greerw -v. The house
was packed to its fall, st capacity by
friend, from town and country and
while composed mostly of Anglicans
contained quite a number from the
other churches.
A.n addrtee was read by Mise
Chapman exnt •saint the sentiment
of the gathering and the presentation
of a well -tilled wallet was made to
Mr. and Mrs. Lewin by lir. Harvey
McCuteheon, one of the Warden., of
the church.
' In replying, Mr. Lewin expressed
his complete surprise both at the
very kindly sentiments expressed, and
at the fact that so many ladies hart
kelt the affair a ,-ecret so .utcess-
fully.
On behalf of himself and Mrs.
T.ee in and hiss Doreen Lewin, he
statedll. they had only done their, duty
and had found -it a very pleasant one
---their five years in. ,ru:scls, having
hsee!! the happiest year's of there
life:'. He gave a cordial invitation
to all to visit therm when they are
settled in their new charge at Park.
The evening. was spent in games
and social chat, after which a beauti-
ful Iunt'h Watt served by the ladies
and the evening was closed by the
hearty sine ing of a hymn.
Following was the address read:— ,
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Lewin and Miss
1)orucn:—
It i; not with any pleasure that we
have gathered this evening to bid
you `'God Speed" for we feel our':
loss too greatly. We are selfish ---
we ftiin would keep you, but, seeing
you must leave us, we would have
you know it is with deep regret that
511 5( 5 .3011 go. -
You, Mr. Lewin, have been a faith-
ful minister of God always perform-
ing your duties' in the church and a•
hong your people, even we know,
when there have been times that yo
felt unable for the task. You have
1311+11 more to us than just our pastor.
You have been a most kind friend to
ear+ and every one, always ready to
lend a helping hard wherever it has
been needed.
In no less a manner• lrace you, Mrs,
Lewin, wolf 0111• esteem and grutft
ude. Your place will indeed be hard
to till. You have, in your years with
us, rendered; invaluable service in
the choir, LadiesGtnld and the
Women's Auxiliary ahly assisting
Mr. Lewin in his pastoral work.
Here', to Miss Mason too, would we
convey our thanks for all she has
done to itsuttt.
Miss Doreen we -would not forget.
Your voice will be greatly missed in
our choir. Not only there, but in all
Social activities of our church will
your loss be felt for you have always;
been n host willing worker.
We reel, too, that: not oily more;
3015 own people 'Pill t?te altsence of
you all be felt but by the community
as a whole. Your goodfellowship
and generous contributions of your
time and talents hnvn endeared you
to many and have established an at-
mosphere of goodwill and kinship
between our church and others of
the community in a greater degree
than has ever before existed.
As a symbol of our appreciation
and regard we ask you to accept this
slight token, asking only that, in
making of new friends may they be
many and true ---you will, forgiving
our many faults and petty grieve
anccs think often and kindly of your
St. John's flock.
We wish you continued success in
all your future work,
Harvey
