The occupants of the Cong'I parsonage
received few days ago a pleasant sur
prise in the shape of cheque for 800 to
expend in assisting to make the parson-
age more comfortable for the next win
ter. A great deal has been done during
the past year by the friends, nearly $500
having been expended for this purpose,
and this additional sum will aid much in
/ making necessary repairs. 1t makes one
think that a parsonage is not just house
made with hands, but that it is wrought
in love and woven with the fabric OF
affection and cooperative esteem and so
its memories become eternal. 1t also
tends to the lengthening of term of settle
ment in the churches. I he donors name
is withheld, but the gift is an expression
of gratitude for fifty years of life and
service that God has given since confess
ing His name in this church.
