have continued to be well at
tended and the interest has deep
cned. On Sunday all the Services
were largely attended and at the
evening service the Church was
again filled to its utmost capacity.
The Message was accompanied
with power and at the evening
service six answered to the call
and yielded themselves to the
claims of Christ. Besides these
many Church members have come
forward and given themselves
afresh to the Master. SO that.
although all our hopes have not
been realized the Services have
been geeatly blest to many and
all the time and energy expended
have been worth while. The Ser

the week, and weare hoping that
some who are still undecided will
