church on Sunday evening next. His
next field of labor is at Dawn Mills, in
the Chatham district, for which place
he will leave on Wednesday next.
Rev. G. M. Dunn preached his fare-
well sermon last Sunday morning.
He chose for his lesson, 1st Coes 13th
chapter, and for his text, 2nd Cor. 13 :
11—"Finally brethren, farewell ; be
perfect, be of good comfort, be of one
mind, live in peace, and the God of
love and peace shall be with ,you."
He took each admonition separately,
commencing at the second clause.
"Be perfect," he said, meant to be
whole -hearted in one's consecration to
Christ and his cause ; to round up
their christian characters and let
there be no slack places. Ye have
done much, he said, but ye can do
more. Be of good comfort; if ye are
deprived of the under -shepherd, ye
are thrown on the over -shepherd, and
He will make all work together for
your good. Be of one mind, and live
at peace, would be the natural result,
if they strove to be perfect. Finally,
brethren, farewell. He said the origi-
nal meaning of the word farewell
meant joy, not sadness. It meant
that each wished the other the best of
everything that this life could give,
and when that was over to fare well
in the life to come. He hoped the
young men would fare well as they
advanced in years and responsibility;
that they would attain to places of
trust and honor in the Church and out
of it; that the older ones would fare
well when called to exchange thee for
eternity. There were many moist
eyes in the congregation during these
touching remarks. Mr. Dunn said it
afforded him great joy to see sorrow
in a farewell, that it was a pastor's
greatest sorrow to see no sorrow in it
farewell. The building was crowded
almost to its utmost capacity. Mr.
Dunn was pastor of the Whitechurch
and Langside Presbyterian Churches
for six years. He preached his first
sermon on the 17th of June, six years
ago. During that time he has preach-
ed. over 1500 times here and at other
places, and delivered over 500 different
sermons. He administered the rite of
baptism 91 times, officiated at 00 fune-
rals, and performed 24 marriage cere-
monies. During the six years, there
were added to the two Churches, 147
members -73 at one, and 74 at the
other. During his pastorate, the two
congregations were entirely freed
from debt, and the manse considera-
bly repaired and hnprovecl. Mr. and
Mrs. Dunn have the best wishes of all
in this vicinity, for success in their
new field of labor.

were equally well done, In the
choruses there was volume, harmony
and melody, the parts being specially
well balanced. J. H. Cameron gave
the explanatory reading. Those tak-
ing part are to be congratulated on
the successful issuance of their faith-
ful practice in the rendering of music

marks by a standing vote. "God
save the King" followed the last

9th con. of Culross had an unusual
measure of affliction within the past
week. On Wednesday, June 6th, An-
drew, the eldest son, passed away at
the age of 47 years and 11 months,
after a brief illness from paralysis,
and on Friday, June 8th, the mother
died from the same trouble, age 71
years. Mr. Watson had suffered from
nerve trouble at intervals since last
fall. He attended religious service in
Teeswater on the Sunday before his
death and was as well as usual. In
the afternoon he lay down and went
to sleep, and while sleeping suffered a
stroke of paralysis from which he did
not rally, never after showing signs
of consmoueness. Mr. Watson s death
is peculiarly sad as it leaves three
children, a boy of 18 and 2 girls
younger, without the care of a parent,
Mrs. Watson (nee Agnes Whytook)
having died on the 17th of August
last.—(News.

That will lift his load of labor
