widow of G.. G. Frost. under whose pas

Mr.. Frost was pastor from 1889 to
1897.
Mrs. Frost wrote: Il heartily re-
joice with you in the long desired free
dom you have obtained from the bur-
den of debt" She referred to the eff
forts in 1879 when it was decided to
build the church and told of those
who had little faith in the project
which today is a monument to the
memory of those early workers. She
recalled the passing away of many of
the members. Their voices are silent,
but we hear them still and we know
they would rejoice with us in this
day of gratitude.

Congratulations to you all. None

ing history. fine pace has been set
for the second century of your church
life in the splendid achievements of
the first decade.
You have both renovated the edi-
flee and eliminated the debt. 1t shows
the result of "a long pull and strong
pull. and a pull altogether" 1t is diff
fcult to predict what a church can
achieve when unity and fidelity prevail.
Your sons and daughters from afar
will welcome the good news of your
success in extinguishing the debt.
The result shows not only \the self
sacrificing spirit of the membership
of the church but also the unbrolren
confidence and esteem in which the
church is held by the community. If
the "cloud of witnesses" is ever in
creasing and consists of those who
once were participants in and now
watchers of, the earthly scenes OF
Christian service. we may we'll be as
sured that the deceased pastors whose
faces look down from the walls. and
that larger, but not less loyal band
who fought in the ranks, applaud your
success and share your joy. Before

men and women who. like the saints Of
old, greeted from afar." Again. lei
me wish you every joy. and express
on behalf of Mrs. Wise and myself

express sincere gratitude for return
