The' Presbyterian Church shed is in much need of repair.

COMMUNICATION Bluevale, Dec. 24th,, 5925. Editor of Advance -Times, Wingham, Ontario, Dear Sir:— Will ir:Will you kindly allow me space in your valuable „paper to correct a. wrong impression which might be left in the minds = of the people after reading the news item which appear- ed in your issue of last week in the Bluevale items. The charges which are referred as being of a serious na- ture and:which are claimed were with drawn by the Presbyterians,were merely a true statement of things as they eXisted'and which have never been withdrawn. On the advice of our Counsel these charges were not pressed, not because they were untrue but bcause in the event of the vote being proved irregu- lar the' property automatically went into Union which was helping us not at all. We were advised to apply under Section to, which dealt exclusively with cases of hardship. We appealed to' the, generosity of our Unionist friends. We leave it to the judgment of a fair minded community as to whether their response was either just lr gen- erous. With regard to the story that is be- ing circulated that I either on my own account or on behalf of the Presby- terian congregation, apologized to Rev. C. Tate at Clinton. This is posi- tively not true and remembering 'the talk which I had with Mr. "Cate I am sure the report did not come from hint, Surely our Unionist friends now that they find themselves in possess- ion of all the church property in the tiillage should be satisfied to let mat- ters rest. They now control" property, all of which they cannot possibly ir,e for the purpose for which it was in- tended. Churches which were built and de- dicated to God by people, ninny of whom have gone to their reward, they are God's Houses, not theirs and with themxi must be accepted" the responsi- bility of the use made of them, ' J.
