singing by the choir was inspiring
and enjoyed by the large cOngrega
ton, whose voices mingled in the
songs of praise. This day is always
anticipated with pleasure and tC
many is consecrated to all that is
highest and best in their natures
and a day of spiritual Thanksgiving
To others it is Il time for a renewal
of friendships with those who have
come from afar; a time to visit the
resting places of loved ones and lay
g few blossoms on their graves. 1t
is "red letter" day looked forward
to from year TO year This sacred
shrine with its hallOwed associa-
tions draws many to the spot daily
who linger for a few minutes for
meditation and conservation. That
thousands of people gather here on
these anniversary occasions shows
the reverence for this spot so sacred
in the history of MethOdism.
