A NEW PASTOR IN BURLINGTON.


The church and society of the College
street Congregational church having united
in extending a call to the Rev. p. NJ. Sny-
der of Middietown, Conn, to become their
pastor, the call has been accepted, and it is
expected that he will begin his pastorate in
this city early in May.
Rev Mr.. Snyder was born in Watertown,
n. Y, in 1853, the son of a Presbyterian
clergyman and he is in the very prime Of
his manhood. He graduated from Williams
college with high honors in 1878, after
which he spcnt three years in Europe, taking
the first year of his theological course in the
Free College of Edinburgh. He gradual ed
from tho Union Theological Seminary in
1873 and preached in the Presbyterian
church in Carthage, n. Y. until 1894, when
he was called to the pastorate of the South
Congregational church Of Middetown,
Conn, where he has remained until the
present time.
The new pastor ofth College street church
is essentially "a strong man, being careful,
dilisent and sympathetic pastor, as well as
Il vigorous, yet polished and graceful pulpit
orator. He does not transfer his sermon to
paper and by his manner as well as by the
substance of his thought, he commands the
| closest attention Of the hearer.
Rev. Mr.. Snyder'S family consists of his
wife and three children, two sons, aged 10
and respectively, and Q daughter aged
seven. Mrs Snyder is cultivated and re-
fined woman OF many Christian graces and
she is in every sense Of the word her hus-
bands helpmeet. The church is to be con-
graduated upon securing the services of
Rev. Mr. Snyder as we'll as those of his
estimable wife, and it is already evident that
a career Of increased prosperity and useful
ness awaits the College street church under
| its new pastor.
