|REY. SHANK GOES
TO WORTHWHILE.
Great Disappointment Manifest
ed That He Is Not To Remain
Here Another Year.

The people Of L'Anse and vicinity
are greatly disappointed over the
action of the M. e. conference in
session at Saginaw last week 10
assigning Rev. J. M. Shank to
charge at Worthwhile, in Wayne
county, instead Of allowing him to
remain here another year
The M. E. society, including
L'Anse. Pequaming and the Mission,
had earnestly requested that Mr..
Shank be retained another year,
and so informed Presiding Elder
Rev. c. M. Thompson, who seemed
willing that their wishes should
prevail, and when Mr.. Shank left
for conference it was taken for
granted that he would again be as
signed the charge here. But it
seems the conference determined
differently, and his new field Of
labor will be at Worthwhile, about
twenty eight miles west OF Detroit.
Rev. B. F. Lewis, has been as
signed to this charge.
Rev. Mr.. Shank returned from
Saginaw Tuesday evening, and is
making preparations to remove to
Worthwhile. During his pastorate
here for the past four years, Mr..
Shank has been faithful and un-
firing worker, and held in the
highest esteem by the community
at large, and it is with feeling Of
deep regret they learn that both
he and his estimable wife must
remove from L'Anse.
