 Former Minister Here.
 Rev. Arthur J.

 Mrs. Benedict on account of whose precarlous health they were obliged | to leave New England about twenty years ago, is now seemingly strong, 1 enjoying the work of her home and ] also engaging in Sunday school work l frequently taking long walks to or | Shanghai, China, in missionary work. haigul is a mining engineer in Par ral, Old Mexico, where he holds a very responsible position. Allan, the second oldest son, is leading the life | of ranchman and becoming quite noted in that while Baby has just graduated from the University of Arizona, and is at home on his fa- | ther'S ranch. It would seem that Arizona is pretty good place to live in as MT. Benedict seems to be something of a "colt,'' yet, and al- though living on borrowed time," is apparently as strons, and active as when he was in Kensington. 1 Will Entertain. l A social and entertainment will be lheld in the Kensington Congregation- al church on Friday evening at 8 ] o'clock.

 being given under the auspices of 1.-the Brotherhood society and a large attendance is expected.
