The morning speaker was Rev Dr. Wm Parquharsan, Toronto who was pastor of Knox from 1899 to 1913. The years are passing kindly over the popular Doctor, and as he stated he hopes to have tn1ttleient "kick", to enjoy meetings of such a nature for many years to come. He based his sermon on John 11;40, "Nid 1 not unto thee, that, if thou wouldet believe, thou shouldst see the glory of God." Dr Farquharson referred with feelings ot gratitude and love, in looking back to his time in Dur. ham. In these 75 years of church life, there have been seven pastors: Rev. Wm. Park Rev Wm Forest, Rev. R. McNair, Rev A. G. Jansen, Rev. W. FUrttuhartum, Rev. B. M. Whaler, Rev. W. H. Smith.

More perhaps than any other man, is Mr Binnie qualified to speak of early eorttrrieontu days. He was a student in Latin under the first minister ot the church, Rev. William Park, and his kindly refer- ence: to his life and worth, were re- ceived with great favor by the con- gregmt‘on. But on this 75th anniversary all was bright and harmonious. These: vices on 24th inst, " well as those of the 17th, were well attended many friends of the congregation tram ttd- Jacent churches, swelling the attend- ance. On Sunday morning Rev. B. D. Armstrong, former pastor of Presby- terian Church, worshipped with the Knox brethren and pronounced the benediction. The evening service of the Presbyterian Church was cancel- led and the pastor, Rev D. Gowdy, also gave the benediction at Knox. Both actions were appreciated by the sister church. burl Knox Church Favored with Fine Anniversary Weather On Sccond Sunday, Rev. Dr. Wm. Farnuharson and Rev. Jas.
