The jubilee anniversary services
held in the Baptist church on Sun-
day Last were very successful and in-
teresting.
Services were held afternoon and
evening, Rev,. H. 0. Eastman of Tor-
onto, a former pastor, preaching. In
the afternoon Mr. Eastman chose as
his text the words : "The Sun of
Righteousness shall arise with heal-
ing in his wings," and in the even-
ing -his subject was : "Are you a son
of God ? if not, why not ?" Both
discourses were timely, appealing,
convincing, and were much appreciat-
ed by all who heard them.
The church choir acquitted itself
well during the day and were ably
assisted by Miss Robinson and 111r.
Henry.
At the afternoon service Mr, H.
H. Hill, who was but seven years
old when the old church was built
on the Base Line, in 1868, gave in
an interesting way a Little history
of the congregation since that time.
His father having been a deacon he
had papers and books from which
facts could be gleaned. The church,
which was begun in the summer,
was opened Dec. 20th, 1968. 'rhe ser-
vices on Sunday, the opening day,
were conducted by Rev. Mr, Sin-
clare and Rev. Dr. Davidson, This
was followed by a tea -meeting on
Monday evening, The collection on
Sunday amounted to $22.50 and the
proceeds of the tea to l21, these and
the subscription list, some $168,
sums no doubt representing much to
the men and women who contributed
to the support of their beloved
church in these early days. The or-
iginal membership was composed of
but a handful of people ; John Chap-
ple, James Rapson, Mr. and Mrs.
Hugh Hill, Mrs, Elkin and Mrs.
Moore. These with the help of al-
most everyone of the settlers in
the community, contributed to the
building of the first Baptist church.
There were two other churches .with-
in, about a mile of this one, a Bible
Christian and an Episcopal Method-
ist, so the people of these early tim-
es were well supplied with religious
instruction, It is a notable fact
that there is not at present a church
on the Base Line, St, .Peter's An-
glican church, which was the last one
to hold services, having been closed
a short time ago.
When the new church was, bisilt in
1908, it was erected at Auburn, and
the congregation has prospered sihce
those, early*days. The present church
cost some $4,000, which was speedily
paid off and is clear et all indebted-
ness. The offering on Sunday amount-
ed to about $65. Rev. T. W. Char-
lesworth was pastor when the new
church was built.
Arnong the pastors who faithfully
shepherded the flock during the earl-
ier years were : Rev, Alex. Stew-
art, Lovingly known as "Father"
Stewart, Who was a groat mfssioe-
sty worker and whose ministry was
most helpful to this little mission
church, then Rev. Mr, Hilliard, Rev,
Mr. McCleggan, then Mr. Hilliard a
second term, and then Rev. John
Gray, who was pastor from 1878 to
1887, and whose memory is still
sweet in the minds of the people.
The present' pastor is, the Rev, E.
0. Porde, who is devoted to his
people and whose ministrations are
appreciated by them.

the haymow of Sheriff Reynolds'

but for the prompt action of the fire
brigade, would have destroyed the
building.
