have learned to love and respect you.

though you are now called to anoth-
er field, Your untiring energy in the
labours of your ministry, your earn-
est exhortations in the pulpit, your
genial, kindly heart in the social
gatherings of our ;people have all
contributed to the success of your
work among us, which is apparent in
the fruits of your labour, to which
Mrs, Agnew by her sympathy has
added not a little. It is with un-
affected • regret that we now come to
the parting of the -ways but remem-
bering that if there were no parting
there would. . be no meeting, we con-
sole ourselves with the anticipation
of meeting you and Mrs. Agnew again
from time to time as opportunity
may be afforded us. For your Suc-
cess in your new work you will car-
ry with you the earnest prayers and
sympathetic''interest of your Ontario
street congregation and we shall fol-
low you in your life -work , as one
that belongs to us and in whom we
have more than a .passing interest.
May God prosper you in your on-
deavours and make your service in
ever -Widening fields bring comfort to
men and glory to his name. To
mark our appreciation of your ser. -
vice and es a token of a debt which
we cannot hope to pay, we ask you
to accept this purse from the mem-
bers of your congregation and with
it the assurance of our sympathy
With the cause to wbich you have
devoted your H£e,--Signori on behalf
of the congregation. --C., W, Thomp-
