| At recent meeting of the members of
the Congregational church it was thought
best not to have services at the church any
| longer after September /. 1t seems that
| the Sebago Lake people are not inclined
| to have services at their church. and
moreover, the two churches, Standish and
Sebago Lake, are obliged to combine in
order that a pastor can afford to preach
at both churches on the same Sunday
| For neither village is able to support a
church by themselves. Moreover there
has been great deal of i'll feeling be-
| tween the two churches for some time,
and consequently, owing to the conclu-
| sion that the Lake church has arrived at,
the church at this place will vacate after
September l. Mr.. Muttart is held in
high esteem by the people Of this place,
and great many regret to have him
leave.
