RECORD CHURCH ATTENDANCE
Linus 6irdsey for Fifty Years Missed
Only One Sunday at Divine
Service.

Gaping a recent report of a Phila-
delphia Baptist who had not missed
one Sunday school session out of a
/ thousand, a correspondent from Key
port, n. j., informs us that another
/ persistent Baptist, Samuel Winterton
of the place, has mot missed a Sun
day in church attendance in As years
come September" The primacy
among church goers was promptly
claimed for Mr. Winterton, when, 10,
there appears on the scene one Linus
Birdsey-Baptist, too-who for so
years missed only one Sunday, attend
ing not only the Sunday school, but
both morning and evening services in
the First Baptist church of Meriden,
Conn. That solitary black mark Of
absence was due to his being away
over Sunday on an outing of some
personal importance-his wedding
journey. Since his eightieth birthday
in 1905, he has sadly lapsed in regu-
larity, having been absent three Sun
days in these five years. We do not
know what excuse he presented for
these frequent derelictions As teach
er and scholar his connection with
that Sunday school has lasted for rs
years during 81 of which he taught a
Bible class. In 1851 he Joined with
20 other men to organize the Ameri- I
can Savings bank His chair has never
been vacant at directors meeting
these 20 years. Mr. Birdsey is a Bible
marker, and on the margins of his
Authorized Version he has jotted the
