Mrs. Joynt was when she• heard
Jimmy" Anderson, 'deader' of the
Methodist choir, , expressing disap-
pointment that ' Edyth'e Freeman
had given up her position ascon-
tralto soloist in -Metropolitan
Meth-
odist, Toronto: Mr:Anderson, a
painter, ;' and finisher was , doing
wood • graining work at the Thomp-
son home at the time of his Com-.
ment. He had .:a - part in securing
this position for Miss Freeman
which he felt was the. first step
in - launching her on a " :brilliant
musical career. Edythe ; returned
home after . four ' months because
'of, her mother's illness, and .:sub-
sequently married' J..W. Joynt; and
made. ; her • home in Lucknow,

, joyed and appreciated through the
