The week Of prayer viii be observed.
and the meetings alternate between the
two churches
The meetings of the gospel workers
have been well attended, notwithstand-
ing the bad weather and bad roads,
Friday eve and Saturday, they were held
at the Methodist church. and Sunday at
the Congregational church. and the Di-
vine presence was evidently felt in the
meeting.
The people who meet at the respect
i've churches in this town from year to
year, came together at their usual places
of worship, Christmas eve to enjoy the
beautiful Christmas trees which had been
prepared, as well as the many gift tok-
ems of love or esteem that had been
placed thereon. On the whole, both
gatherings we're gems of their kind long
to be remembered by all present
The ball at the Irasburgh House last
Thursday evening. was attended by
about so couples and a good deal of
poor fighting whisky, judging from the
disgraceful fight which occurred 1t is
said that the powers that be" have
taken a good deal of pains to inform in
quirers that the rum or liquor was
brought to the hotel by parties who
came to the ball from Stanstead. The
distinction between selling rum to man
to get drunk on IN ones house. and per-
hitting him to bring his own rum there
and have a bacchanal row is not very
great morally to some minds.
