Whereas it has pleased the Advise

esteemed brother in Christ, Andrew
Little:-
We as members Of the Church of

whose, wise council and helpfulness in
Bible study, will be greatly missed.
He was fl m believer in all prin-

all his ways.
We as a church body, do hereby ex-
press our most sincere sympathy to
the bereaved wife and children in
their great loss of devoted husband
and father.
Goodbye dear friend, your work is
