MINUTES ST. MATTHEW'S PARISH.
Words of Commentator and Good
Will Written Upon Rev. Shaw's
Resignation.

The Vestry of ST. Matthew's Parish,
Garrett county, Maryland, this 3rd day
of July, 1907, in special meeting assem-
bled, hears with painful regret the an
nouncement by their Rector, his resig-
nation to become operative September
LIST, 1907 We but poorly voice the
dominant sentiment of this vestry and
Parish in the declaration that this action
on his part is no less a surprise than a
sorrow to US all, and equally short
must we fall in any attempt at portray
al of the high estimate placed by this
vestry upon the faithful diligence Of
Mr.. Shaw, his clear and earnest sermons
in sound accord with the best teachings
and usuages of our mother church; for
his ready and conservative counsel and
his unremitting admiration as friend
and a shepherd in sacred things.
In reluctant acceptance of the ten
dered resignation, we convey to Mr.
Shaw the amplest assurance of our af-
lection and esteem with the humblest
trust that He who rules lovingly over
the laborers of His harvest may multi
ply His blessings in the future work and
happiness of our retiring Rector.

Hardly Opened.

The business of the Northland Tim
tied TO northern Michigan points ov-
er the G., r. & J., is proving it decid-
eddy the best train that has been run
in the past few years. At the present
time every berth on the train is sold
up till July IS. More cars are being
added to accommodate the public but
reservations in these are being made
very rapidly. 1t is highly probable
that it Will be a regular thing to see
the northern train go through Rich
mond in two sections and those large
ones.
The brisk demand for the tickets to
the north and especially at this sea
son of the year indicates that there
will be a still heavier travel during
July and August, and that the James
town exposition is not hurting the
northern business.
The people going to the north now,
are largely those who are going to
look after their cottages and those
persons who go north to work in the
hotels and at other summer occupa-
tons. The heavy southwark travel
indicates that people are not yet TAX
ing their vacations in the north.
