HONoRABLE TO THE INDIVIDUAL
AND CREDITABLE TO TUE Towse--The
Endowment Fund of Knox College,
Toronto, has recently been enriched
to the ex.tent of $300 through the
liberalty of M. McTaggart, Esq.,
RE this town. The fact that the
possession of wealth does not blind
its owners to the benefits of a higher
Christian education is one of the
cheering signs of the times and dee,
serves more than a passing notice.
The donation of $300 for this
laudable purpose is a very liberal
one for even a gentleman possessing
so goodly a share of' this world's
goods as Mr. MaTiggart, and Clin-
ton 'should feel honored to number
him amongst its citizens.
