PREsENrArIoN.-A very pleasant presen-
tation took place on Wednesday evening
last, at the residence Of Mr.. B. F. Rouse, on
Prospect street. The young people of the
First Baptist Church had met for a little
social party, which they had determined to
make the occasion of a presentation to Rev.
A. H. Strong, their much beloved pastor.
About nine o'clock Mr.. j. H. Mansfield, in
behalf of the donors, presented Mr.. Strong
with an elegant silver pitcher and service
complete, making a few well-timed and ap-
prOpriate remarks expressive of the love
and admiration which had prompted the
beautiful gift.
Mr.. Strong, though completely surprised,
made a very graceful reply, accepting the
gift and plainly showing that he was deeply
touched by the spirit that prompted it.
The occasion was more than usually in
teresting from the fact that the greater
number Of the young people have only
lately become members of that church.
The presentation over, the party partoek
of refreshments which had been bountifuliy
provided. From beginning to end the affair
was delightful, and will strengthen the
strong cord of love which unites pastor to
people.
