a few words of welcoxe froui Pastor Goo- dell hc replied that he 'md become it con- vert to Methodlsin. and hoped that his re- lations with the clinreli would prove pleasant. in n ,inei\.~'iii‘c, he said he felt lilac a iiniu whose cruii-lies had been taken away from him. However, he hoped to soon become accustomed to his new sur- rouudinprs.

Personally Mr. \ViIlia1us was cordially

received. 'l‘hc objection to him by some is solely because of his too recent conversion to the Methodist Church, and thefaet that he isa Canadian. Some who were at tli*` prayer meeting did not look with favor upon the new assistant`s Episcopalian ciiairictcristies. On the other hand Mr Williams docs not lack his champions, who delare that his charming personality will soon win over the dissatisfied ones. The salary of the iissistniit is $2,110() n year.
