MINNESOTA.-Dr. Tuttle's Work.
Last Sunday was DR.. Tuttle's last
Sunday as pastor of the Tuttle church.
He came to us in November two years
ago. We were then without a pastor
and without funds to hire one, holding
Sunday school and Y. P. G. U. in hall.
DR.. futile came for a few Sundays un-
til we could get the right man for the
place. and he has been with us for over
two years. During that time we have
moved from the hall to fine new $4,000
church. DIR. Tuttle gave the first 81 900
besides giving his services free for the
entire time he has been among us. We
are sorry-very sorry-to have him leave
us, but he is sure our new pastor. Rev.
J. Murray Atwood, can carry on the
work now.
DIR. Tuttle has already been urged to
take up the work in two other fields,
but his friends here think he deserves
rest. He has added about fifty names
to our church book and many new fami-
lies are seen in the congregation that
we trust will stay with us after he leaves.
Besides what he has given himself the
Doctors friends have given him many
presents and money to help us in our
work; chief among these may be men,
toned the $500 from the Ladies' Aid of
the Church of Redeemer, and $500 for
glazing from DIR. Tuttle's son. This is
a splendid record for a pastors benevc-
lence and that of his friends.
