occurred at the "Vinalhaven's" wharf at

team with him Miss Julia Green, primary
teacher at Minturn, who was going to
leave on the morning boat. When they
drove upon this wharf the horse took
fright and backed off the side of the " hart
into the water with beth occupants of the
carriage. 1t was fortunately low water at
the time. The cries of the struggling wo-
man soon brought help and both were
rescued in an exhausted condition. The
morning was intensely cold, but kind
hands soon made them comforta Bile.
They fortunately escaped without serious
injury.

atoms, and the uniform gentleness and
courtesy of the people under their charge
were a source OF pleasure and comfort to
these devoted teachers. Two little chill
dren were laid away in that far-off land,
one, the first-born, aged fifteen months,
the other a stiil younger infant. Though
cherished hopes were blighted by the
death angel, these consecrated lsborers in
the Lords vineyard kept on with their
work of love and self-sacrifce. Other
children were given TO brighten their
home and they were gladdened in seeing
large number of native people converted
to the Christian faith.
The Divine Master said; "Greater love
hath no man than this that man lay
down his life for his friend" This Is
what the devoted missionary, Rev. Angus
tus Walker, did. Leaving his safe billy
summer home in the cholera season when
hundreds of victims fell by the dread dis
ease, he went into the town, having heard
that valued native friend was stricken,
nursed him until he died, and attended TO
bis burial. He was shortly taken III him
self, and though he reached home to re-
ceive the devoted care OF his wife and
physician, he grew rapidly worse. After
few days suffering he felt the end APP
preaching and while trying to frame
farewell message to his devoted companion,
with the tender word Darling" on his
lips the great soul passed to the heavenly
home. The Borrowing people of the mis-
sion did all in their power to comfort the
bereaved one, and bought with their own
funds memorial tablet suitably inscribed
to their beloved pastor.
Madame Walker with her children, the
youngest born a few months after her
great bereavement, leaving with regret
what had been home for fifteen years, and
the gentle friends OF their church at
Diabekar, came back to her fathers home
in Auburndale, but not wishing to be
dependent upon her parents bounty,
accepted OF him a pretty cottage home,
where, by her seli-reliant and energetic
efforts, she provided for her children and
gave them liberal education.
This brief outline is but glimpse OF the
joys, sorrows and hardships that crowded
the eventful years this brave woman passed
in foreign land, far from home and kim
dred. The missionary circle has been
promised a sketch of Madame Walkers
home for orphan children, established and
carried on for many years. All rejoice
that in the twilight of her days she is SO
tenderiy cared for by her devoted son aud
daughters. Born Christmas child, she
has, through her long life, excmpllied the
true Christ spirit.

the company consisted OF the regular
members OF the circle and other young
ladies and girls. After a programme on
Japan, the company repaired to the
dining room, where in true japanese style
they partook OF refreshments, which.
however, were not of strictly Japanese
character, but more acceptable to the
palate OF the Occidental. A very pleasant
evening was passed and a deeper interest
was stimulated in our brothers and sisters
