Hoar, Bethesda, to read the following add re s: Dear Mr. Cobb,--A ed over the members, when it became known that you had de- j cided to enlist in the interest of your | King and Country, /it seemed impossibleX] that God should really call you to leave this needy field to lenter upon new and arduous duties. Bukas^we have listened i to it from your view 'point we are con- * yinced that God is leading you and we cannot but feel proud to know we have such a representative on the field, ready td sacrifice self for the larger opportunity. It has been stated that the qualities of pastor and oreacher are seldom combined, but in you the exception prevails. From the first we have felt that you belong to us. The older members of our congregation congregation have looked upon you as "their boy", the .young people as "their brother", while the kiddies always looked for a run and a frolic and a treat when Mr. Cobb came home. In this way you have bound the circuit together as one large family definitely definitely interested in each other, and ready to engage in active work for our Lord and Master. Your pulpit work has been a marvel to us all. Even when taxed to the utmost with examinations you have never failed to give us new thoughts and in pir- ed us to higher and nobler living. Your masterful way in dealing with subjects has led us to believe that Tyrone Circuit will be too small after ordination, and we have had a vision of you ably filling one fo the leading pulpits in t ur city churches. With a great deal of pride we have looked on and said : " Yes that man Cobb was once Our junior pastor," However, let the coming months and years bring what they may, we are confident that ,i will be His best for.you and our lives will be the richer and purer for haying had your counsel and companionship, for we know that "No life can be pure in its purpose and strong in its strife and all life not be purer and nobler thereby." As a circuit we ask you'to accept these socks for your personal comfort, this military wrist watch and this purse of money with the hope that as often as possible during these winter months you will find your way to Tyrone Circuit where you. will always have, a hearty welcome. Mr. A. E% Clemens Tyrone, presented Mr. Cobb with k military wrist vntch, two pair of„socks and a purse containing $38.00 in mbney. Mr. Cobb made a very suitable reply thanking the people for these gifts and for.their kindness in opening opening their homes to him during his pastorate pastorate here. This part of the. meeting closed with the National Anthem after which a social houra social hour was spent and refreshments were served.
