Rejoicing in Albion
The Latter Day Saints in Albion
are rejoicing over the completion
and dedication of their new meeting
house. This was begun about eight
months ago and was dedicated as
a permanent home for the worship
pers on Sunday last by Pres. VIM. r
Jack. 1t is brick structure 24x48
feet with nice vestibule on the east
nd Cfo no
was built by contract by Imperial
Sash and Door Company at a cost
OF s2071.52. The cost has been met
by voluntary contributions, the sum
contributed aggregating $2075.4s,
leaving balance of 1896 in treasu-
ry. An interesting fact in this con-
nection is that people outside the
church in Albion have contributed
one-fifth of the cost of the struc-
ture.
After the opening of the service
Elder Jos. Y. Haight rendered the
very satisfactory report of the finan-
cial committee, who had in charge
the construction of the building. BID.
Thomas Harper then made a short
address commencing the people on
their generosity and their good will,
after which the dedicatory prayer
was offered by Pres. w. T. Jack.
Addresses were then made by Pa
triarch w. F. Brim, who lived in
Albion for more than 20 years, and
President w. T. Harper who was
bishop of the Albion ward for many
years. The benediction was pro-
nounced by High Councillor L. w.
Robbins who was present from
Burley.
A very enjoyable evening session
was held, also, at which addresses
were made by Bp. Harper, Elder
