WINDHANI.
Former Members Widely Scattered


The Phoenix reprinted last week an
item about the Windham church taken
from the Vermont Missionary, and gave
it the heading, Thirteen Resident Mem
bers. The total present membership is
80. Former members. now known to the
clerk to be living, are now members of at
least % different churches of at least six
states. More former members of the
Windham church are now members of the
church in Chester than are resident meIl-
bers here and some of the other churches
of the % have five or six former Wind
ham members each. The nonresident
members of the Windham church, who are
active workers or regular attendants in
other churches. would add to the number
of churches and states mentioned above
Items noticed within a week about for
mer members are that William w.
RhoadeS is a trustee of the UniversaliSt
church in Bellows Falls; Mrs. z. \. Ed
son is president of the Ladies' Aid society
in Chester; F. f; Harrington, who re-
Gently moved to Chester. Is a new mem
Der of their business committee. SO even
though the church is now in hard straits
it has furnished workers to many other
communities. Some of the former mem
bers remember the old church with finan-
cial aid which is very acceptable. though
it needs the presence rather than the
presents of friends.
