This is Brother Brunson's fifth consec-
utive year, with one year ofr-and
risk nothing in claiming that he is now
doing the best work Of his pastorate
here. Our congregations are encourag-
much regret. Mr.. O'Leary has given
much Of his time to municipal affairs,
and has rendered a great deal OF valua-
BILE service, about which the people gen
ing in size and attention. Our Sunday
school is an admirable one. 1t Is under
the fruitful superintendent OF that
coming man, w. w. Lewis, Esq. Our
ladies' are successfully at work In their
different church organizations. A new
line Of work has been taken In hand
lately, with good promise Of fruitful re-
suits, by some Of the ladies, among
the children and young people Of the
York Cotton mill. They have organized
a Christian Temperance legion and
they feel very much encouraged IN the
good work they have undertaken. 1t
will be a matter Of sympathetic inter-
est to maryland especially to the for
mer pastors of our church here-that a
beautiful memorial window has been
put in the handsome Methodist church
at this place, with the inscriptions: "T.
s. Jefferys-1827-1S94." Captain JEFF
ferys was for many years useful
member of our church at this place and
a very liberal supporter Of 1t.
