posed at the time. '01 course there is
nd-possible way of proving it at the
'present time, but some go so far as to
say that he Must have been inurdered
for his money. It • does seem very
singularlthat a well-dressed man,wear-

in eartyc'reunietaimes, should commit

our obligations to you for the services
so cheerfully rendered, we wish to as.
dare you, by our presence to -night, of

in all your labors for the Master, and
hope and pray that you may be long
spared to carry on Ilis work. On be-

appreciation of your valued services,
