 Robert Joseph Diven, pastor of Grave Presbyterian church, has been notified by the Home mission that he is to be transferred to Wrangen in the near future, and it is pos sible also that he will be called upon to attend the general assembly, in which event he will be compelled to leave Nenana within a few weeks. Otherwise he will not leave until after the opening of navigation.
