very ehtnuSidSJtc meeting Oh the
members and adhereuts of the Congre-
gational Church was held on Thursday
evening the Ord inst. After partaking
of bountiful supper provided by the
Ladies Aid, the meeting was called to
order, f. NJ. Bartlett in the chair, it be-
ing the adjourned annual meeting.
The roll of the Church was called and
about all resident members answered to
their names. The report of the Ladies
Aid was read by Mrs. f. j. Parsons, and
as this report showed that the debt had
been paid, and mortgage discharged, the
report was really history of the labor
of the Ladies Aid for the past ten years.
In 1900 there remained as an out
standing debt on church and parsonage
$1,000. The parsonage was at that time
mortgaged for this amount and the debt
funded. Each year the Ladies have
paid the interest and an installment on
the principal until last month, when the
balance was paid. During this time
the Ladies have raised in all some
$4,000. What was not required for the
mortgage has been spent on the par,
sonage and church property.
Then followed the burning of the
mortgage. In an ashestos-lined dish
the fire was lighted, Mrs. Parsons apply
ing the match, supported by the two
oldest members of the church, and the
lights being turned off, made an extreme
| ly picturesque scene. At this time al
