The services were conducted by Rev. Mr. Henry, pastor 1, of Knox Church, Hamilton, and formerly Brandon, Manitoba. In the selection of Mr. Henry mir Presbyterian friends did not make any mistake. Ile is one of the raost able of the younger preachers of the church. He is a born orator, while his sermons were eminently practical, earnest and eloquent. He was listened to with very ranch in- terest and, we have no doubt, pro- fit, by large congregateens both morning and evening. In the even- * ing the church was crowded. On the following Monday evening the an- nual tea meeting was held. On this occasion also the attendance was un- usually large. Although the night was cold and there *as no sleighing there was a large turn out of coun- try, people. All were anxious to have another ppportunity of hearing Mr. Henry and they were not disap- pointed, fbr, in his inimitable talk "The Boy" he fairly delighted his audience. ,His wealth of anec- dotes, _every one of which 'served to illustrate a point or fix some truth in ,the mind of the listener, made it both entertaining and instructive. Mr. Henry has a real fort as a popular lecturer as well as en earn- est and useful preacher we'd should he at any future time return to Sea - forth it will require the largest building in, the place to accommo- date the audience. The ehoir under the leadership of Miss MeFaul also, are deserving of special mentien for their delightfully rendered _music both on Sunday arid Monday even- ing. At the tea meeting the musical selectioncoesisted of an anthem, duet, quartette, two selosand a chbrus from members of the choir and a piano solo by Mr. Harry Liv- ens. The ; music was greatly ap- preciated by the audience and gave evidence of care and work on the part of the choir. The ladies were up to the mark as usual, for despite the unusually large , Dumber they bad to provide for at the tea meet- ing, there was etiough add to spare tor all and it was of the very best. !The proceeds of the Sunday collec- tions and the tea meeting amounted te over $300. Rev. Mr. Henry left for home on Tuesday morning and proceeded to Brandon where he preaches anniversary sermons to his former congregation there next Sab- bath.
