Rev. W. Farqu harson, B. D., of Durhem, and Messrs Alex. M. Martin, M. P. while six gentlemen, representing the congregation, board of .mauna- gers and session, appeared to urge that the translation be not granted. | On behalf of Westminster Church' there was read a minute of the Saugeen Presbytery sustaining the call; the guarantee of stipend, and the call itself, with long list of signatures. On behalf of the con- gregation of Port Perry there 'was presented a resolution of their cou- gregational meeting asking Mr. Coopesto stay and offering to in- crewSe his salary one hundred dol- lars, ~ All the nine representatives of the two copgregations spoke,' three asking that the transl.tion be granted and six urging with great feeling aul evident sincerity that the past nine years. The most voticeable feature of the discussion was the revelation of the strong attachment that bas grown up be- tween pastor aud people in Port Perry. 'I'he speakers knew that they could neither offer the sphere of uséfulness nor the financial sup- yort that be would have at Mt, Forest. Loyalty to their minister's best interests and to the welfare of bindering his going, while their made them rebellious. against "any- thing that would lead to severance of the pastoral tie. He had conie among them ata time when they were dispairing of existence, had gathered together the scattered elements and inspired them all with the spirit of confidence and hope. Their debt was cleared off, the manse built and altogether the prospects of the congregation were brighter than they had ever been before. He had succeeded alike in winning the young people and in ministering to 'the aged. He was honored as a man and a cfii- zen and his departure would be a loss to the town. Ou being handed the call, Mr. Cooper, while ac- knowledgtng the way he had been moved by the representatives of his congregation indicated that he felt that the path of duty for- him was to accept the call. In this the in doing so paid Mr. Cooper a tribute no less striking than that presented by: the congregation., he mover of the motion to grant the translation had a hard battle to control his feeliigs as he tried to Cooper. "He has been more than a rdthier'to me," he said, "he has bal os to a father." . The others: spoke in the same strain, 'reminiscences reaching all the way back to the old Jollege days, "Thus with many. goo 'wishes and with Mr. Cooper's with the best assurance of sticcess 3 [and the confidence that they have | | Been wisely guided in their choice, ~ y the congregation 'of Westminster x Shuichiwe are sure, will "welcome Loi g hii, 'and labor between sides with Miss Bedford "Jand Mr. C.

Besides paying the first cost the field must be put into shape. This will be done just as soon as the funds will permit. Smoothing and levelling is the first necessity. This can be done next autumn after the playing season is over. Ploughing and re-seediug would remove super- ficial youghness at little cost, but a proper levelling is what it needs, that would put it right for all time. This. might cost several hundred dollars'and would pay in the long run." What will be done depends on the state of the finds next fall.
