My dear People:
Sunday, September 10,
will mark exactly the close of twelve
years. pastorate which [ have had in
this church. No love is so strong as
the first love; and no field Of labor
which may hereafter fall to my lot
could be SO dear to my heart as this
where I have made my first big blum
ders, knitted together my first strong
friendships, and gathered my first
sheaves for the Masters garner. How
hard it is for me to break the tie of
cordial Christian friendship and love
that has SO long held between you, my
beloved, and myself cannot tell you;
and it is useless to try. Suffice it to
say that l have been brought to the
conviction that now is the time for
me to ask you to release me from the
work Of this ministry. l do this for
many reasons, chief among which are:
that know L need long rest; that I
am sure the other members of my
family would be greatly benefited in
health by change of place and scene
and, more than all, l feel that this
church would receive added efficiency
by the coming in of new methods, new
vigor and new face.
You may be assured that this church
and it's work will ever bold very
warm place in my heart. If at any
time can in any way serve you, please
know that l am yours to command.
If you wish my cooperation, I shall be
glad to aid you in securing one who
will not let the work in any wise lag.
Let US, brothers and sisters in Christ,
for the while forget the smart of sep
aration, and work heart to heart until
we are obliged to say Goodbye. Thus
we shall pass on to another a work
that is unbroken and ready for the
reaper's hand.
I shall ever endeavor to live for my
Master; my full love once given tC
Him cannot be recalled. In some form
l shall always be telling the good news
to men. Brethren, let US ever pray
for each other.
l ask that my work with you cease

TOWN TOPICS
REV 0. W. BARKER RESIGNS
AS PASTOR OF THE CONGREGATIONAL
CHURCH.

The congregation at the COngrega-
tional church, Sunday morning, were
given an unpleasant surprise, when at
the close of a powerful sermon, Rev
Otis w. Barker read his letter of
resignation as pastor of the church to
take effect on October %. The letter
was received with real sadness on the
part of the members of the church,
many of them being in tears. The
church is united and harmonious un-
der Mr. Barker's pastorate, and the
congregations were never so large as
at present. He has been especially
popular with the summer colony, the
church being crowded throughout the
summer. A determined effort has
been made by the church and society
to retain Mr. Barker, and it was hoped
it would succeed. But his own health
and that of his family is such Mr.
Barker feels that a long rest is i'm
perative, and SO the members of the
church and congregation bow in grief
to the inevitable.
In the Fairfield Consocia tion of Con-
gregational churches, Mr. Barker's in
duence has been felt, occupying the
position Of moderator.
Mr. Barker is a member of the
High school committee, president of
the Beach Memorial Library associ-
alton, member of the Mems club,
and was one Of the executive commit
tee who managed the successful BIZ
| Centennial exhibition. He is man
whom we do not care to spare from our
local life. General regret has been ex-
pressed by residents or the town out
side of his church at the resignation,
and the hope has been voiced that
the church might succeed in retaining
him.
