Rev. J. H. Dobbyn Sunday morning
read his resignation as rector of St. Johns
kchurch. While it had been known that
Mr. Dobbyn was considering aattering
offers elsewhere, the fact that he had de-

came as something of a surprise. Mr..
Dobbyn has done a great deal for the

rangements as will induce him to with
draw his resignation.
