Rev. w. P. BREED.-On the I'd Sab
bath ofihis month, the Rev, W.P. BREED
preached his farewell sermon 10 his
church in This city. He has now taken
Fis departure from our midst, to occupy
field of labor in the city Of "BrotherIy
Love-"
',d This brother has laboured in this COM
munity FOR eight years, with measure
Of success rarely equalled. His church
2 had less than one hundred members-il if
we are not mislaken-when he took
charge of it; since that time the edifce
III which they worshiped became too
strait for them, and it has been consider
ably enlarged and It's membership has in
creased to about three hundred. His f.
deity as pastor, his diligence as stu
dent, his eloquence as preacher are well
known, not only in his own church but
in The entire community.
II was with the greatest regret, that
his church and his breathren in the Pres
bytery were led 10 think of his removal
and with the most intense reluctance,
they were brought to consent to the sew.
erance of those bonds by which they had
been so long and SO pleasantly united.
This community will feel his loss in
many respects, and i, will be difficult tc
find one 10 stand in his place. His long
continued and faithful exerlions in the
Temperance cause, have made their mark
in this region. We know he will b.
greatly missed in the advocacy of this
important cause, which has yet hercu.
lean work here to achieve. .'..
This excellent brother goes from oul
city to his new post, followed by the ear
nest prayers of many and the best wishes
of all, for his increased usefulness ant
success. ... gss
The loss of one good man from com
munity in these degenerate times, may
have more grevous bearing upon our gen
eral interests than we anticipate. MucI
should we desire such to be multiplied
rather .han diminished in our midst ant
SO may it be. ..... ......

Astonishing Cure with only One Bottle.

"a, 1884," We herewith send you GER
tiiicate of cure performed by the use of
only one bottle of the German Bltters we

and have no doubt Of the truth of his story"
Messrs. Jos. B. Hall g. Co.-Gcntlemen
In answer to your inquiries, | will state
that my daughter, aged about l6 years,
has been complaining Of pain in her side
for six or seven years, and about the first
of January last, was taken down and con-
fined to her bed, The pain in her side was
very severe, besides being troubled with
pains between her shoulders and in her
breast. From reading number of cures
performed by" "HooAand's German Bitters,"
was induced to try it in her case, and
sent TO your store and purchased one bot
tie. She had taken it but u few days when
she began to improve, and how, after taking
o ly one bottle, she is enjoying better
health than she has for years. She feels
no pain in her side or in any part of her
body, and attributes her cure entirely to
the German Bitters. WIN. CLARK.
