We recently met at his residence, one of
the Oldest, most laborious, and successful
Baptist ministers in New England, Rev. p.
Bond of Jay, now nearly eighty years of age,
who informed us that he had preached be-
tween nine and ten thousand sermons during
his ministry of over fifty years. He is still

in addition to his other farm labors; con-
structs his own carts and farm wagons; trav-
