"THE CHURCH'S ONE FOU DATION to N-, It is seldom, that a hymn, written in the heat of a theological controversy, and intended to emphasize one parti- cular set of doctrines, should become such a universal favorite that every group within the church should sing it with unqualified approval. Yet that. is what has happened in the case of this hymn..' It was written by Rev. Samuel John Stone in /866 at a time when the Anglican Church was much ll eunortho- dox exercised over the a eg d nox - io dox teaching of Bishop Colenso, who had just published a book denying the. historical ae&uracy of the Pentatetteh. There was sharp division' within the ranks of the church, Mr. Stone felt the situation ,keenly and believed that the very .tottndations of the faith were being undermined, Nor did he mince words when he wrote.' ' Ono verse of the hymn which has since been mitt. (Cotttintted on page four) The Late Vidrew' Linklater Laid To Rest On Thursday It was one of our beautiful spring days, when nature had again put on her garb of green, when the mortal remains of the late Mr: Andrew Link - later were laid: to rest in. the Wing - ham Cemetery. He belonged to that sturdy race of pioneers, whose ranks are now almost depleted, there being only two or three Left in the district who would come in the same class. Besides a• host of friends and rela- tions he leaves to mourn his loss, one daughter, Mrs. J.Ellxt t of town, two grand children and one great grand child, Mrs, Dr. Lockhart ,and, son, John Andrew of Edmunston, New Brunswick and Mr. and Mrs: Weir Elliott of Welland; arrived just before he departed this life. Mr. Linklater was born in the Osk ney Islands about 85 years ago.. Three. elder brothers had gone to Canada before him, about the middre of the last century viz: Magnus; John, and Willian6 The last named had learned the trade of carpenter, in the summer of '54 he worked his way to the city of Hamilton and then west to the village of Manchester., (now Auburn) some of the houses he work- ed. at is still standing. In the autumn. of that year after locating a home- stead, he went back. to Orkney fob' the express purpose of bringing out a life. partner, and. at the same time brought out the'rest of the family,ro: in all, of whom only one is left, Mrs. Catherine Young, with their father and mother. After a stormy voyage of 8' weeks' and' 2 days they landed in Canada:. They made their way at once to the Town- ship of East Wawanosh,: where they lived for many years. For the first 5 years Andrew stayed with his brother William, who found ready work at his trade in fitting up settlers, cabins and making them rea- dy for habitation, Comingas, they did from a land devoid of timbers, they were not experienced in the cutt - ing down of the "Monarchs of the Forest." f1ke most young people he, wanted to be ind'ependent, therefore' he bought from his brother John, the back half of what is now known as the old. Salt Well Farm. He soon cleared a piece of land and it wasn't very long till he had: a home ready for a housekeeper. In 1867 he marr- ied Miss Isabella Hogg and she was an excellent helpmate and before long they were on the way to independen- ce. They had flue children who would soon have been an aid .to the parents in their work, but one cold winter's day they lost their second oldest, a bright boy, with that dread malady , dyphtheria, inside of two weeks, three more were taken leaving thein only the eldest girl; (now Mrs. Elliott). The old, saying that mss - fortunes don't come singly was veri- fied, in this instance for his father, the late John Linklater died at the same time and he wasn't able to be present at the funeral, After a time they sold their farm and about 32 years ago along with Mr, and Mrs. J. J. Elliott, they moved to the town. of Clifford, where Mr. Elliott had. a good vetin- ary practice. After seven years ago they moved back to Wingham, Mr. Elliott purchased the old Foundry property, which ce he turned into a vet - Mary hospital Mr: Linklater mov- ing into ov-ing.into a house on the banks of the Maitland/ Mr. Linklater's father, the late . Mr, John Linklater, went 3 voyages to the Davis Straits in the Whale Fishing, that don't sound so far away, now, in this age of fast going aeroplanes when its only a matter of a few hours to take a trip to the North Pole. If we were looking around fox an epitaph the following would be appro- priate:—"A faithful friend, a husband dear, A tender parent lieth here.
