A.. E. Jones, and his wife, by surprise,
by going to the parsonage about eight

them a bin full of oats and plenty of
good things for an evenings repast..
After an had been most heartily wel-
comed in a brief address by the pastor,
the gathering was, presided over in an
easy and informal way by Mr. Garner
Nicholson, and the evening was spent
in games, addresses, readings, solos,
choruses, gramophone selections and
luncheon, when all retired to their
homes, feeling that an enjoyable even-
ing had been spent.
To Mr. J. J. Denman.
Dear ex -Superintendent and Teach-
er ; it was with feelings of regret
that we heard of your final departure
from our midst. During your super-
intendency, the intelligence, kindness,
tact and faithfulness, with which you
conducted each service resulted in the
strengthening .of our school, as re-
gards the. attendance, finances and,
the individual spiritual profit of your
scholars. Now as the thread of duty
which has connected you with our
school is about to be finally broken,
we assure you that the chord ofrati-
tude, respect and love which binds
our affections to your large, generous
heart, shall not be severed, but will
reach you on your distant home, and
our prayer is that this chain of friend-
ship which joins heart to heart on
earth, shall again be coupled without
a missing link, by our blessed Savior
as we meet in heaven. Wishing you
haa>piness and prosperity and extend-
ing to. you the compliments of the sea-
son, we remain in loving memory.
Signed in behalf of the school.
Robt. Shaw; Supt.
Victor Jermyn, Asst. Supt.
Mr. Denman was taken by surprise,
but thanked the school for their ex-
pressions of appreciation of the ser-
vices which he valued more highly
than silver or gold, and which he will
always retain and cherish as
mementos of the time they spent so
pleasantly and profitably together.
He thanked the officers, teachers and
parents for their assistance in the
work and expressed the hope that God
would continue and prosper their
school years to come.
On Friday last, St. Paul's Cathedral,
London, was the scene of an impres-
sive event, when David Williams, M.
A., Archdeacon of Perth, was conse-
crated as fourth Bishop of Huron, by
his Grace, Archbishop Bond, Primate
of Canada.
Very Rev. Dean Davis read the
prayers for the occasion, the first part
of the service lasting nearly three
hours. The Holy Communion and the
partaking of the Sacrament by the
officiating clergy followed. Bishop
Carmichael, who preached the sermon
took as his text II Timothy 1:6 -
"Wherefore I put thee in remem-
brance that thou stir up the gift of
God, which is in thee, by the putting
on of hands." The Bishop delivered a
most earnest and inspiring address.
His remarks chiefly took the form of
an exhortation to the Bishop -elect,
along the lines taken by St. Paul in
his address to Timothy. After the
sermon, Judge Barron of Stratford,
lay delegate, read to the Primate the
record of the election, which was
signed by Dean Davis, Canon Hicks
and Edmund Paull. Tho oath was
then administered to the Bishop -elect,
and the Primate offered up an elo-
quent prayer, which was followed by
the Litany. The next step was the
questions to the Bishop -elect, asked
by hit Grace, with regard to his doc-
trine and faith.
The Bishop -elect was conducted into
the vestry, where he was invested
with the robes of office. Afterwards
he was led to the chair of the Primate
by the other Bishops who were pres-
ent, and the ceremony of consecration
proper was performed, the Archbishop
laying his hands upon the candidate.
Bishop Williams was then given a
copy of the Bible and a gold ring, in
sign of the trust which was commit-
ted to hitn.
