KENToN, March 13:-Rev. &. X.
Ellis, who has just closed his second
year pastorate at the Kenton Circuit
NJ. E. Church will leave for Confer
ence at Seaford this year with most
fiattering report. He has made one OF
the best pastors Kenton has ever had.
In his pastoral ddties he has been ably
assisted by his lovely wife. Both have
been Jealous in their work, faithful in
the discharge of their duty, and have
endeared themselves to their parish
toner's. Kenton Circuit consists of
three charges-Kenton, Blackiston's
and Central. During his pastorate
the parsonage debt of $500 has been
paid off and the church debt of $40 liq-
Undated. In addition to this a COM
Portable carriage shed has been built at
the rear of Kenton M. E. Church at
cost of $40. Central NJ. E. Church
has also undergone an improvement OF
$40. From IA members at Kenton,
when Pastor Ellis took hold, he has in
creased to 1O5; Blackstone from II to
40: and Central from 25 to 36. He has
raised and collected since April '99
$4,000. There is a unanimous wish on
the part of the congregations for Pas
tor Ellis return.
A special sermon was given'to Camp
No. 3, P. o. S. of A. at the M. E.
church last Sunday evening by the
Re- V G. r. Ellis. The text was: "Bear
We one anothers burdens and so fulfill
the law of Christ" The meeting was
largely attended, despite the disagree
able weather. In the congregation
were some of our older people who had
not attended church for several years.
The order is one of the most prosper
