DEAR MISS CLARK :—We, the mem-
bers of the Methodist Church, Bel -
grave, have learned with deep regret
that you have tendered your resigna-
tion as Organist of the Church, and
are about to leave us for a time. We
have admired the genial christian
spirit in which you have performed
your labor in the Master's service, and
we pan assure you that you will be
very much missed by your wide circle
of friends. We desire in a small way
to express our appreciation of the
faithfulness and able manner in which
you have assisted in the service of
song during the past three years, and
we ask you to accept this locket and
chain as a token of the same, We
pray that the blessing of the Lord will
attend you, and that wherever you
may go you will continue to be active
for Christ, and that in the Eternal
City you may praise Him with your
hands upon a harp of gold.
Signed in behalf of congregation,

slipped from the fork and dropped on•

had not been that the granary wall
partly held up one side of the bundle,
thereby breaking the full force of the
fall, the old lady would doubtless have
been killed on the spot ; as it is, she is
confined to her bed in a very serious
