REcroR,s FAREWELL SERMON.
Rev. George Q. Halls Services Cease ir
Honesdale.
Special 10 The Scranton Tribune.

Special to the Scranton Tribune.
HoNEsDALE, Pa, Jan 29.-Probably
no congregation ever mourned the de-
parture Of its rector from among them
more deeply than does Grace church,
Honesdale. upon losing its beloved
leader. The deep regard in which Rev.
George c. Hall is held by his people
was plainly shown at his last services
of yesterday.
In the morning Mr. Hall repeated a
former sermon by request. The sub
stance of his sermon forcibly brought
out the fact that man must be pitted
against man to bring out the best that
is within him, as iron sharpeneth iron.
Every pew in the church was fill led,
and large part of the congregation
attended the last administration Of the
Lords Supper by its rector, 1t was a
parting that caused tears to flow, but
the bitter was yet to come.
The affection between the Sunday
school and its leader is very close Two
hundred and fifty. seven scholars were
present when Rev. Mr. Hall arose to
speak his last words as their rector
The scene WAS touching in the extreme
1t WAS with difficulty that Mr.. Hall
spoke; it was no use to keep the tears
back longer; even the men wept The
sweet words spoken will inger long,
the song, "As Trustful as Il Little
Child" and the parting benediction
were from overhowing hearts and
bowed heads,
The farewell sermon was preached
in the evening, The church could not
hold the people that poured into it,
Chairs were placed even up to the
chsncel step1 The rear Of the church
was 80 crowded that 1t was impossible
to find seats and many were turned
away. Grace church never saw such a
congregation before. Let Every
Man Take Heed How He Buildeth, "
was the text of the sermon. The house
built upon the sand and the one built
upon the rock. The foundation rock
of a mans character and
then the founding of Grace church and
the building Of the present NOBLE edi
fee. A short sketch of its life, and
lastly, Mr. Halls own rectorate was
referred to. The church aud Sunday
school have grown wonderfully during
Mr.. Halls eight years ministration
The growth Of the Sunday school has
been the growth Of the church. From
an average attendance of 1870 eight
years ago it has increased to 22O, aud
the past eight weeks has shown an av.
erage attendance Of over 230
Mr.. Hall could not and would not
say farewell. He said that the only
separation would be in his official rela,
ton. The last words were spoken in a
trembling voice, and the congregation
sang, "Bless Be the Tie That Binds. y
No rector and his congregation ever
felt a parting more keenly than Mr..
Hall and his dearly loved flock,
