Whereas, We are nearing the close
Of the 4th year of the pastorate of the
Rev. W. @. Kinsey, of st. Paul's M.

Resolved, That this fourth quarterly

We would also record our approval
of the high standard of Christian ex-

The fruitage of the seed sown by

when the Lord of the Harvest shall
garner His sheaves, and we pray
wherever in the Providence of God
the Annual Conference may send him,
he may be able to lead other people
into the rich and deep experiences of
perfect love.
And may God, whose servant he is,
abundantly crown his labors in the
salvation and sanctifcation of souls.

that 500 more shall be added to their

apiece Some consider S400 too much
for the work and out of proportion to
the business done. Tho lonn is n very
prosperous one and there is consider
able work attached TO it, but it is saiti
that it will not tako very many DAYS
ont of a mouth to do all that has to
be done and that many men are work
ing hard with picks, etc. on the docks
for less money per month and they
will do all in their power against the
