SHIRLEY - On the evening of December.1, a large gathering of the friends and neighbours of Mr. and Mrs. William Vance met at their home. Mr. and Mrs, Vance and Edna are leaving the neighbourhood in the near future, It is with deep regret that their neigh- bours see them leave and this senti- ment was voiced by many. During. the early part of the even- ing the following address was read and remembrances presented. To Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Vance and Miss Edna: Having heard of your impending departure from our neighbourhood, we, your neighbours have gathered here this evening to express our re- gret at your leaving and our appre- ciation of your help in affairs of this community during your long years of residence here. You have always been ready to promote any scheme for the general good of the neighbour- hood. In church work we have al- ways been able to count on your co- operation and help and much that has been accomplished in this field, has been due to your unflagging zeal. While We suffer a loss when you leave us we are glad to think that your influence will be felt in another community when opportunity arises. We should like you to carry with you to your new home, these little tokens of remembrances not for their intrinsic value, but because they will remind you of the place you hold in the esteem and affection of this com- munity. Now Mr. Vance we ask you to accept this clock. May it mark the passing of many happy hours. Mrs. Vance, please accept this silver tea service. May you dispense many cups of tea from your hospitable board. Miss Edna, we ask you to accept this chest. In its fragrant in- terior you will be able to hold your most prized possessions in absoluts security. Signed on behalf of this community, Mrs. Job Graham, Mrs. Wm. D'Arcy, Fred Toms.
