GONE TO TEXAS.

has secured a highly responsible po-
sition as principal of the musical
department of st. Agnes Acad my
Miss Forhan will be greatly missed
in Owen Sound, where her place in
both social circles will be hard to
FILL She is indeed one Of the most
accomplished musicians the town
has possessed. In 1889 she took a
course at the Chatham convent and
won the gold'medal in both vocal
and instrumental music. Return
ing home she sang the role of Sera-
paulette in the opera BELLS of
Corneville" with great success, and
was soloist for the Choral Society
with Miss Nora Cleuch as violinist,
Last winter she attended the Con-
servatory of Music in Toronto, and
passed her examinations at the end
of the year with high honors. On
her return to town she assumed the
difficult position of organist and
choir leader in st, Mary's Church,
which she filled to the satisfaction
Of all. Miss Forhan will no doubt
have wider field for her great
musical talents in the enlarged
sphere to which she has gone, and
her many friends here are confident
OF her success On Monday evening
a committee OF st. Mary's choir
called at the home Of Miss Forhan
and presented her with a handsome
dressing case of oak and silver and
the following address. Mr. VIM.
MofIat read the address and Mrs,
Bridgewater made the presenta-
ton.
DEAR MISS FoRuAN, The choir
Of ST. Mary's Church cannot allow
you to depart to your new field of
labor without giving expression OF
the deep sense of gratitude they
feel toward you for your unvarying
kindness to every member of the
choir during the time you have
been in charge Of it, That you soon
will have many friends in your new
home we are sure, but We are satis-
fed none will have kindlier feelings
toward you or higher apprecia-
ton of your musical talent, 1t is
not our province to dwell on how
much your Christion example will
be missed, but we may be permitted
to say that in this you leave behind
you an ideal which ought to be a
model for all Of u.s. Please accept
this little gift and let us venture to
hope in your home in the Sunny
South it may recall pleasant me-
