evince the design as one OF great
architectural beauty. 1t will have
cost, when completed, eight or nine

roof when cold weather commences.
1t is also contemplated to erect a
school-house ON the opposite, or
southern side, Of the church, of the
sane dimensions, style of artiiecture
and cost. The basement of the
church will be used for schoo! pur-
poses until the scheol-house is built.

ed, however, the unfinished tower of
the church is to be Completed
This will be sometime during the
coming year. The yard surrounding
the church, residence and proposed

eqly fenced and elaborstely set out

The work on the new Methodist
Episcopal Church is steadily pro-
crossing. is expected to be COM
plcted by November next, in which
event it will be dedicated by SINE
distinguished minister. When fin
ished it will have cost nearly forty
thousand dollars.
This, for the good people of Frost
burg, is an enterprise which would
do honor to larger and more prcten-
Mous towns. Through, the efforts OF
Rev. Mr.. Gray, the pastor, this
great tlibute to the church has been
erected. To consider it merely as
an ornament to the town falls tar
short of it's true Significance. Its
erection is testimonial to the mu-
nifcencc and piety of those who
built it, which shall endure as long
as its lofty spire points to the Him
table sky. ..
