their way out of town. All wore the

Holiday Good Will.

The happy holidays are here
with good will abounding. That
of the good people of the Cove
United Presbyterian congregation
took form on the Friday evening
before Christmas by gathering, en-
masse, in the PASTORS home, at
tended with loaded vehicles. So
unexpected was their arrival that
they found the pastor in his ice
packing suit that evening, though
one member of the family seemed
ineXplicably urgent that he should
hasten to don another suit because
he was in danger of taking cold.
But if he didn't take cold he did
take good many other things
that did not require the doctor.
A very happy hour followed,
occupied with merry good cheer,
presentation and responsive ad-
dresses, and praise to the great
Giver, with invocation. The pas
tor was made the recipient of II
well filled envelope of greenbacks,
and his wife of beautiful couch.
The stable and Iarder supplies
were both re-enforced.
Another feature that deserves
special mention was the presenta-
tion to the pastor by one of the
young ladies Of a beautiful dog of
fine strain and possessed of the
traits of character which the pas
tor very much admires.
These expressions of good will
and sympathy are very highly APP
preciated, and these good people
have the cordial thanks of the pas
tor and his family.
