Miss Haddocks formerly of Clinton ,friend Who was waiting • outside for -writes to Clinton friends about con- him. As the city gates were already closed for the night, he could not re- turn to his home,though a message was put through to assure his people ditions in China. The following let- ter, received by a Clinton lady, al- though written late in, November, gives some idea of the strain wide]; which British residents have been working, and their patience under provocation: "Conditions in China are not in - proving much the whole country 18 in :a state of. revolution many do not know what they are rebelling against or what . they want. • Up in Chengtu there has ,been a great deal of agitation against all foreign.; .ers, Some young hot -heads likely well paid by Russia have tried to dose the Union University, first they tried to incite the students to refuse to .attend classes and demand their fees to be returned. In this they fail- ed. 'Their next move was to intim- idate the servants of the foreigners and start a boycott and strike think - Mg in this way to make it impossible for f breigneas to remain. All ser- vants were forced to leave and mer- chants were forbidden to sell sap - plies to foreigners. However a crowd of Canadian men and women are not so helpless as to be inconvenienced much by their servants leaving. A few things such as the carrying of water was rather; awkward f or a few days but some water carriers would tome at night after dark, then some PeoPlel had wells or cisterns near their houses. Chinese friends saw that everyone was kept supplied with meat and vegetables, very tow of the tradesmen refused to sell even swhen they krieWthe supplies were 1dr for- eigners. The strike lasted for two weeks and no one suffered much save the, servants who wete out, of a job. There was one interesting incident in connection with the strike. The man who is in charge of the Mission Press in Chengtu, a M. Pen, a quiet unob- trusive man, a sincere ehristian, of kindly disposition who has many friends was successful in keeping all the employeee' of the Press from join- ing with the strikers. This' raised the • ire of the leaders, so ane afternqon when Mr. Pen came out of the Press he was kidnapped. Three or four men requested-(?) him to go along with them, he went, they led him out- side the city to a tea shop in the suburbs, here they read out in the presence of the crowd the things Mr. Pen was guilty of, such as not join- ingwith his fellow countrymemin the strike 'and of supplying the foreign- ers With 'food, etc., etc, They put a garment on hith on which was writ-' ten "Foreign Slave", and called him everything but what heis, a Christ- ian gentleman. • The croingl aeon he's gan to object as some of them Iceew , Mr. Pen, one man. got close enough to Atm to ask to whom he could take a• message,, Mr. 'Pen gave .him the name and address of a friend in the .arity, Before long an officer with. some mounted armed soldiers came along,. and demanded the- 'release of Mr. Pen at once, „They took hien. to a nearby lock tip, when the man MO • Whose charge he Was given saw who it was he tore off offending gar. meat and soundly cursed the fellows who dared do such a thing. In the meantime Many of Mr. Pen's friends • both 'f0r0ign and Chineee had heard of his predicament. ',One Mom -Who OW118 a large businesS, came 'along 'with his Shop seal as security' to have: Mr. Pen Seleased. This.was done and ' Verde beide with the eert.of a that all was well. Early next morn - Mg about twenty .Chinese mon went out to escort Mr. Pon to his home. Of course they had an indignation meeting, knowing that what had been done to Mr. Pen might be done to any or all of thetn, if this was allowed to pass. Mr. Pen went back to h work as usual and continued th pass m sap - plies to foreigners as before. Every night he secured a small siail of fresh milk somewhere and somehow or other hung it on a branch of a tree in the yard oh a home where a young girl was seriously ill. He even went so far as to invite some for- eigners to his home for a meal at noon one day. Even with only a few men of such character and calibre the cause of Christ in China must prosper. Some of these clays when it seems ne if everyone were against the ClusIstians I think of Elijah when he was 80 discouraged and God' told him of the number who had not bowed the knee to Baal. So 11 niay be in China,' indeed I believe it is that just such times of testing as the Christians are passing through now will make them 'stalwart and snore decidedly Christian. There must bo many, Many thousands all aver the land who inline of trial and perse- cution will stand firm and doubtless far more than we foreigners know anything about: They are scoffed at and ridiculed and are bearing a good testimony to the power of God in their live. A 'number of families whose furlough' was due next spring have already gene home. The Brit- ish Consul has been keeping up con- tinual pressure Urging that all wo- men and children -leave China. Some of the men escorted their families to Shanghai and have returned to. Szechuan. During the past week Mr. Bell and Dr. Tenant plissed through here en -route to Jungshien. That station now has three nen with- out their wives. One family from Tzelintsing went home, then the - party being delayed sailing from Van- couver all makes us very short of workers'. Dr.' Wilford had to leave his wife and children in Vancouver, he has not yet Cable up river, I think he is hoping .against hope that 'Mrs. Wilford can 'come but. too. Thie shortage of workers is going to be a seriour problem when et* council meets in another couple of monthi. What side of otia work is it bet to curtail? The shortage of doctors is really the most serious in-ionie ways, our policy being to have' a foreigh doctor in ,each central station where there are other foreign 'werkers, this we will •not be able to do and leave enough in Chengtu to carry on the . work, of the medical college. If, we take the; men frdin the college then' we are not preparing the Chinese doerors to take up. the work of , our hospitals', so it goes around in a vicious circle and lust what is best it is difficult to -decide,' We will not ask people ' to live in a station wheie there is not a doetor, they; must 'ye - unteer.

It is 110W more than fifty years since having met the deceased and looking back in memory over the in- terval am very much impressed with the thought, bow much do I owe to t1109.0110, like the late Mr, Gibbings, have been possessed of those 'genuine characteristics, qualities which go so far through their influence, uncon- sciously it may be, in shaping the lives of those with whom they have come in eontact? 1 can well remem- ber the time when the residence in which he so.. -long resided was erect- er, having had the pleasure of work- ing on the same, and can well re- member the great; unostentatious manner of the man at that time, al- though very young myself, the in- fluence of which hlis followed me ; through He., The same qualities I (17U sure can be said of both Iris busi- nessand public life. Surely the bene- diction of such a life even in business transactions is something that the thoughtful person may well cosfet and emulate. He was no less exact- ing in his Christian life, faithful to the trust entrusted to him as an offi- cer in the Church, faithful it his at- tendance at its services, honored and respected by old and young, a living example of everything, that is truly great and enobling in human charac- ter. The influence of such a life (Mee not pass away with the one who has been the happy possessor, the rather it lives on and shines its- a beacon light to future generations. Clinton has truly lost another good citizen, a noble character, whom emulate, "And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, write, blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth; yea, stall the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors; and their works do follow them." "A good name is ' rather to be chosen than great riches," "The memory of the just is blessed." Sineerell, —WILLIAM TAYLOR. 963 Wellington St., London, Ont.

AN OLD RESIDENT OF EAST WAWANOSH PASSES The Belgrave community was • grieved on Sunday, Feb. 13 to learn of the death of another of the old residents at liis home en /the eigth Concession of East Wawatosh in the person of Mr, John 'Cole, who was widely known and highly esteemed in this district. Mr. Cole 'was a native of Devon- shire, England, having been born there on Oct, 14th, 1840, and he be- longed to one of those families -whose courage and industry wero the means, of tranforming this country from a land of unbroken forest to a land of comfortable and well -kept homes. His parents Richard and Gertrude Cole, with their chilren, immigrated to this country in 1852 and settled on the 10th concession of Ilullett, on a bush farm. Here they made their home and aS their son John grew to manhood he helped to clear the farm until when he wns about twenty-one he started out to %work for himself. Later, in 1875, he married his now 'Sorrowing nimbler, Annie MacKenzie, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Peter MacKenzie, also of Hullett. The young couple made their home on the old Cole farm for about four years and there their only child was born. In 1880 they moved to what is now the Cole home on the eigth conces- sion, where they have 'lived since, spending the last few years in a small home of their own on the farm While Mr. Cole's health was learned of with, deep regret it was not -un- expected as 'he had not enjoyed good health for some time, Abont fonr years ago, he underwent a serious op- eration in Wingham hospital ,and while this proved successful' and ben- eficial, still he seemed to be slowly bot surely overcome by diseime, which gradually sapped his strength and life Until he was called to the hoine where there is , neither , sorrow nor stiffering. Two years ago in March Mr. and' Mrs. Cole celebrated 'their golden wedding and since that time he has been confined to the house the greater part of the time, and for several months has been practically bed -fast.
