Had a Rough Voyage,

The following extract from spicy let
ter written aboard the Kaiser Wilhelm
H. by Partisan lady to her Richmond
friends reminds us that perfection has
not been reached in the building of ships:
Tomorrow we are due at Cherbourg,
but we are already twenty-four hours
late-no wonder! as waves and wind and
storm have done their best to keep us
from La Belle France. We have not
Lett our berths since we parted from our
dear ones. Yesterday at nine, all the
dead lights were down and the electric
lights went out. and we pitched and
rolled all night. If you should meet In
this world, or the better one beyond the
man who wrote "a Life On the Ocean
Waves" would you give him message
from me-anything that would make him
feel pleasant would do? I wish for better
things for even my enemies than days
at sea-"

adopted:
LIST, That Mr., walthall preach for the
Overlook Church every Sunday after

3D. That he DO released from preaching
at Mizpah on Sunday nights,
3D. That the weekly lecture and prayer
meeting be at Mizpah on Thursday night,
SO that Overlook Church may have
theirs on Wednesday night. for excellent
reasons.
1t was shown to be practicable for the
Mzpah people to attend at Overlook
on Sunday afternoon.
The pastor expressed his high appre-
citation Of tho kindness of tho congrega-
tion in all things. and on the behalf Of
the congregation there's were cheerful
and pleasant expressions of sympathy

1t is hardly probable that another ses
