Fuller have been secured by the Cong'I
church for another year. Mr.. Fuller has
been with us ten years and we cannot af-
ford to lose him even yet. He is one the

and charitable in his views, practical in
his preaching, fearless in his convictions
of truth, and abreast of the progression of
the times. The country church that can
secure and keep such preacher is fortu-

say we hope he W i'll be with US ten years
more.
