PASTOR OF METHODIST CHURCH

10 begin the erection Of i0-room

sewerage system or light plant as
yet, but bonds for both have been

needed things and few other things
we will begin 90 take our place along

We are fairly well fixed out here
and have found many who are kind

show our appreciation by rendering

We often feel n homesickncss for
