aetited a gold ring. Wedding music

DEAR MR. AND MRS. MANN.-
The members and adherents of Mel-
ville church have assembled this even-
ing, not only for the purpose of spend-
ing a pleasant social hour together but
also that we might have the opportun-
ity of expressing our gratitude for the
faithful services you have given us
and to shocyer you with good wishes
as you go its your new field of labor.
The 8 years, during which you have
been our guide in things spiritual
have been strenuous years in congre-
gational affairs. Shortly after your
Induction the building of a new plane
of worship was undertaken. While
plane and arrangements were under
way your advice and judgment were
meet encouraging and helpful. The
difficulties of flnanoing were further
increased by the coming of war with
its many demands upon time, energies
and money. The fact that we have
the present beautiful edifice practical-
ly free from debt, while et the same
time all other departments of church
work expanded; is due, in no small
measure to your energy,,euthusinam
and tactful suggestion. Over 4 years
of your pastorate the great war cast
Ike shadow -talose were dark days for
alt of tta, to some they were days of
tragedy, Your responsibilities and
dame as pastor were greatly increas-
ed, while greater demands than p' e•
viouslyy were trade upon you as a t111-
zen. To yon fell the psadduty of con-
veying -to hearts already strained
with anxiety -the dreaded message

of your ministry many new members
have been added to the church,
These are only the outward and vis-
ible signs of the success of your earn -

devotedly serve, alone can estimate
what yon have accomplished in the
spiritual sense. But we do feel that
God has blessed your ministry here
and that future years will continue to
bear for His harvest fruits of the seed
you have planted. We know that
Newmarket is to gain in welcoming
you as pastor and helpmate and as
citizens. We earnestly pray that
your work there may be abundantly
blessed and that you may be spared
for many years of service. As a tok-

you to accept this purse which bears
with it the good wishes of the entire
congregation. Signed on behalf of

Mussels, Oat., February 28th, 1921.
Rev. Mr. Mann replied in a few well
chosen sentences, heartily thanking
the congregatihn .for their apprecia-
tion and kindness. The address was
too kind as what progress had been
made by Mrs. Mann and himfRf had
been accomplished, under God, by
the hearty sympathy and support of
the people. He wished the congre-
gation abundant anceessand hoped in
due course,an under -Shepherd would
lead them luso pleasant and prosper-
ous paths, Mrs. Mann and himself
would always have a warm place in
their heart for Brussels and the
many kind friends.
Sunday afternoon the members of
Mrs. Mann's Bible Glass in the Sab-
bath SchoolP resented her with a
choice set of silver knives and forks,
T. C. McOa1 President 1 Pest int o f the class,
making a neat speech in doing,- so
Mre. Mann's reply was cordial, sym-
pathetic and grateful.
A number of friends in the congre-
gation made a gift of a fine reading
lamp to the retiring pastor and his
good lady while other worthy tokens
were also forthcoming in which the
donors declined to have their names
given to the public, but none the less
gratefully received and appreciated.
Rev. Mr. Mann's labors during the
pastorate were manifold but all per-
formed with a faithfulness, vigor and
couetaney that spelled success. His
pulpit ministrations were evangelical
and well timed ; his duties as pastor
to so large a membership were oner-
ous but the cheerfulness with which
they were given made them a bene-
diction to many a home, Mrs. Mann
is a specialist in the W. M. S. and
Sunday School work and her buoy-
ancy and kindly persistency writs
many a step in advance. Mr. Mann
was a member of Brussels Public
Library Board and also a director of
the Horticultural Society, Every good
cause found a helping hand from the
intnates of Melville manse and the
swiftly flying years were well freight-
ed with worthy deeds and thoughtful
considerations while they sojourned in
Brussels. Newmarket is to be con-
gratulated on their :addition of so
worthy a couple.
Tuesday afternoon's train carried
away Mr. and Mrs. Mann, many a
tearful eye being in evidence among
the company who went bo the depot
trees them off. Owing to the prox-
imity of Newmarket to Toronto and
good railway facilities their son, Alan,
of Toronto, will be enabled to spend
many a Siutday under the parental
roof, which was one of the induce=
meets for the change, If hearty good
wishes and fervent prayers will man-
