After a successful ministry of sev- en years Rev. LeRoy Rice has resign- ed the pastorate of the First Congre- gational Church. He announced his resignation to hig congregation Sun- day morning, the announcement be- ing received with much regret. Mr. Rice has accepted the pastorate of the Congregational Church at Stan- stead South, Quebec. This church was established one hundred years ago, and exercises a great influence in the Eastern Townships.

The call to Mr. Rice was unani- mous, ninety-five per cent. of the peo- ple voting for him on the first ballot. Rev. Mr. Rice gave two reasons to his congregation for resigning. One was that he had been pastor for sev- en years, which was sufficiently long, { more especially as this was his first and only pastorate. The other rea- ison was that his health was not ro- | bust, and he thought the country at- nn i REV. E.

During | his pastorate sixty members have {| been added to the church's roll, the | church debt has been paid off, and about $600 has been expended in re- | pairing the exterior of the edifice. | Mr. Rice has shown himself an ex- | cellent citizen, always taking a deep | interest in everything that made for | the city's progress. He was secre- | tary-treasurer of Queen's Alumni As- sociation and chaplain of Queen's | Bowling Club. | Mr. Rice will preach his farewell | sermon on the evening of the last i Sunday in August.
