FAREWELL TO REV. HAMILTON
Episcopal Society Bids Him Goodbye
Pastor Called From Springfield, Mo.

The members of st. Michaels Episcopal
church, the church vestry and the many
friends of Rev. and Mrs. William j. Ham
ilton testified to their appreciation of the
pastor and his wife Tuesday evening,
when a reception was given to them at
the home of Ex-Congressman Kittredge
Haskins on Terrace street. Mr.. Hamil-
ton has been pastor of the local church
since September, 1907, and has done much
in building up the parish. A few weeks
ago he made known his intentions of re-
signing to the vestrymen of the church,
and although they tried to have him re-
consider he felt that his health demanded
accept his resignation two weeks ago.
The reception Tuesday evening came in
the nature of a surprise to Mr.. and Mrs.
Hamilton. Fully 100 people gathered in
the home of Colonel Haskins which was
thrown open for the occasion. A pleasant
feature of the evening was the presenta-
ton to Mr.. Hamilton by Mr.. Haskins of
a purse of $75 in gold, and gold watch,
the latter bearing a suitable inscription.
Mr.. Hamilton responded, saying that his
remembrance of the people of Brattleboro
and his associations with his Pensioners
would always be most pleasant. The re-
mainder of the evening was spent socially,
a collation. being served.
A call has been extended to Rev. An
drew Harper Of Springfield, Mo-, to sue
coed Mr.. Hamilton in the local pastorate,
and in all probability he will accept. AL
though none of the members of the local
church have either seen or heard him re-
ports which they have received of his
work have been of the highest order. He
is 40 years old, and for the past two years
has been pastor of the Episcopal church
at Springfield, Mo. Previous to that time
he was pastor of Christ church in Science
