ed the speaker with characteristic dig
nifty. DR.. Worrell gave view ofthe
character of Ezra referring especially
to the 10th. verse of the 7th chapter
of Ezra's prophecies. He showed
how Ezra had achieved success by OBJ
serving the following five rules of
action:

4th. Put it in practice:
9Th. Taught in Israel.
Those who were privileged to
hear his address enjoyed an evenings
entertainment filled with flashing
wit and winning eloquence.
The Young Mems and Young

were fortunate in securing the con-
sentof Prof. Worrall, d. D., of Dan
vile Theological Seminary to deliver
the annual sermon before the united
body. The service occurred on Sab

fitting words. Music was furnished
by the choir, in addition to special

illustrating and emphasizing truth
belongs to DR.. Worrall in high de-
gree. Combined with this was
