that wheat it . became • known
• there was a possibility of him leav-
ing, w patitiion was Circulated attiongt
the residents of • the villitge, regard-
less of denomination, asking hint to
stay. Everybody signed it. In addi-
tion to this thirty members af • the
church appeared before the Prcebytery
to urge that the • call be not endors-
ca, This placed . Rev. Henderson in a.
quandary for much as lie appreciatea
his present charge, lie has a hanker-
ing for the West, The meeting. • was
adjouritea for two hours to enable
him to come to a deciaion, but when
the hour had arrived the way did tuot
s.xen any wore clear and the Presby-
ter, adjourned until wet Tuesday.
The Hetigall church has a
ship of of 46o and gives Mr, Henderson
Sr2oo a, year, a free manse and a,
month's holidays. The New Westmitt-

Mr. Hoiderson has received calls
from the United States and big sti-
