DELMAR, April Sth, 1872.

Mr. ED1ToR:-By your permission, l
take much pleasure in acknowledging the
unexpected kindness and liberality of the
people embraced by Cherry Hill and Wes-
ley appointments, during the past Confer
ence year.
l had not, however, conceived Of any
plan for severance from the congregations
and people after one years service; but
am always willing to give up my place to
any brother to do better for the people and
the church than I can do,-and it is my
earnest wish and prayer that Dear Brother
Weston will serve the congregations well
and satisfactorily. am sorry that T. b.,
should have written as he did in Tile Dea.-
crat, as | never in all my ministerial life
received such kindness as from Cherry Hill
and Jackson School House Congregations.
We have a good and pleasant home in
this enterprising village, on the Delaware
Railroad, and the year commences auspic-
iously. Several have been converted and
Joined the church already; and the people
everywhere seem as kind as any people l
have ever served. l shall be glad to see
any Of my Cecil county friends at my home
in Delmar. Yours truly,

Some are done sowing oats

Mrs. Blackburn, near Glen Roy, in Chester
