Purse to Retiring Pastor.

Easter Sunday closed the pastorate
of Rev. James S. Clark of the North
Bennington Congregational church, son
of the late Dr. and Mrs. Charles s.
Clark Of this village. At the previous
midweek prayer meeting special
church meeting was called, at which
resolutions were adopted unanimously
expressing "our appreciation of his con
sistcnt and earnest work for the Master
in our church and in this community,
which has resulted IN MANI additions
to the memb ership and to a very ma
terial increase in our bcnevolenccs
and in extensive and important i'm
rrovements to the church edifce and,
as we believe, general betterment of
our church conditions.
In addition to this a purse Of $500
together with the following letter has
been presented TO Mr.. Clark:
''Your Pensioners have felt that
in addition to the resolutions adopted
by th, church and already conveyed
to you, they would like to extend a
further and perhaps more tangible
testimonial of the affection and es-
teen.
-, therefore, take great pleasure
in handing you herewith a New York
draft for $500. This purse has been
gladly participated in by all the
families of the church and parish and,
therefore, represents, as you will see,
a very general mark of esteem.
With renewed hope for the happi-
ness and success of yourself and Mrs
Clark in Your n3w work, l am,
Cordially yours,
a% Harrie G.. White.
