Received by Penney Memorial Church
from Cumberland County Baptist
Minister'S Association

Ministers Association.
At the regular session of the Cum
herland Baptist Ministers Association,
consisting of pastors of the Baptist
and Free Baptist churches of Cumber
land and York counties, it was unan
imously voted that an expression of
our very great admiration, affection
and confidence In the Rev. William r.
Wood be sent to the Penney Memorial
church Of Augusta. which, in our
judgment, is exceedingly fortunate in
securing him as pastor.
He is. TO our knowledge, an excep-
tioral combination of preacher, evan
gclist. organizer. teacher and civic
leader.
To him more than to any man In
Western Maine is due the organic
union OF the Baptist and Free Baptist
denominations.
With profound regret at our loss and
with earnest prayer for the blessing of
God In his new field, we commend him
to your confidence ard cooperation.
(SignedD A. n. CHANDLER,
Secretary.
