J. McMurray, for a re -union dinner. There were fifteen of 1VIr. Mc- Murray's former boys present.

It was interesting to find that six of the men are grandfathers and the gathering was filled with laughter and much "reminiscing". E. S. Livermore, Q.C., London paid tribute to Mr. McMurray on behalf of the class, for his church work. He recalled the number years Mr. McMurray as a Sun- day school teacher and the years of devoted work he has and is contributing to Ontario Street Church. Mrs. McMurray was algo thanked for having served a de- licious meal and in turn wished the gentlemen success. The gath- ering will be remembered by all those attending as a most en- joyable and pleasant re -union. 0 at DiA A PHONE 224W CLINTON .4smons4s2rograrrsmonanzzszsistraaateMeMbtreaa MeWAXDataDarreVs09.0Mig.
