Passumpsic Valley Ministers.

The Passumpsic Valley Ministers
association met with Rev. J. ]. Hutch
lnson at Lyndonville, Monday. Rev.
). f. Goodheart of Centervale gave a
Religious Review of the World and
Rev. E. E. Phillips presented a paper
on Recent Archaeology and the
Bible" Both themes called forth
extended discussion which was en-
tered into by all. Five denominations
were represented and at first it SEEM
ed that there was a wide divergence
OF opinion relative to many features
OF the themes under consideration;
but 1t became more evident, during
the discussions that the seeming diff
ference was more a difference of the
individuals form of expression or
method of thought than any substant-
ial difference of belief, spirit or prac-
tice. A sweet spirit of Christian fell
lowship prevailed and it was consid-
cred a very pleasant and profitable
occasion. In anticipation of the
event Rev. John Daniels was inspired
to compose a few verses with which
the meeting was brought to a felicit-
Gus close.
