they come or 90, sit down or stand
up, and they will place her where she
belongs, in line with wide-awake com

 Bishop Johnson was called on for a few words. and spoke wi tn evident feeling and emotion. Although he had to come from South Dakota he said he should have made the effort to be present, even had he been in the heart of Africa. On behalf of his parents he expressed his thanks to Rev Mir George, Rev Mir Wright and Allison P. Smith for their kindly words and to all who had come to add their word of congratulations and greeting.
 Rev MT George was felicitious and graceful in his introductions, and aided in making the occasion the happy success it was.
