1t is indeed pleasure to write OF
the character and life of such Sun
day School scholar and teacher as
Mrs Wallace is and has been. and we
believe she is fulfilling the Scripture
wherein II says, Lay W Tor your
selves treasures in heaven. where
moth and rust doth not corrupt and
where thieves do not break through
nor steal"
:, If any school anywhere can furnish
a longer or better record than this,
come forth and be heard.
Also, we record It as fact that for
52 long years this Sunday School has
had only four Superintendents-W ID.
Roffe, Judge James T.. Stewart, Judge
Il. T. Burns, and the present supcrin-
tendent. Mr.. Augustus Snyder. MIR.
Burns was Superintendent for about
81 years and Mr.. Snyder has been
serving for about IL years. 1t is hardly
necessary to say that all OF these men
have faithfully stood by the Sunday
School, and much OF it's success Is due
ito the labor and sacrifices OH the part
,of these four men, three of whom have
crossed the divide. 1t is glorious
thing to be able to say at the end of
