Memorable Historic And ‘Religious Background‘ Described By Rev.

i/V. E. Aitken.

The following address was 11"?‘ p.‘.‘.‘(‘(i and read by Rev. 1V. E. Alt- ken of st. Johns United Church. ltliirle, on the occasion of the 45th anniversary of the church on Sun- day, May 28:

We stand tonight on ground which speaks of sacrifice. 'l‘~.vo hundred ycgirs agf) the hardy sons and daugh- ters of France tilled the soil be- neath our feet. Tlien came the year 175s when they were (lrivon from their adopt-ed home, Isle St. Jean. iilld ninny of them found their 105i’. resting place in the sea. as the Duke lvilllzim sank in mid-Atlantic. Erit- ain, Mistress of the Seas, took com- mand, and one of her first oillPeYS in charge of stores at Fort in Joie is looked brick upon with Pride RS the piogenitor of many who are gathered here tonight.

With the stationing of British snlrliery, thus ensuring proivciivh in life and property, British immi- grants arrived to take the land vac- glad and to pll5h brick the border of tlm forest. Into these parts they cziinc also from Pcrthslilre, Dum- fri-zsshire. and Morayshlre, at least so runs the record of the scribe.

They came from about the YB!" 1775 and onward They came from purts where the truth of God was proclaimed and where they rejoiced q tho Sabbath to go up to the House of the Lord. But here they were scnticerd, here there was no semblance of the organization that they had known beyond the seas, and like the Lord Selkirk settlers at Red River, lvlunitoba. they had to wait. long for a. minister of their own persuasion. In the meantime the

First Visitation

The first visit of a. Presbyterian minister was in the year 1791 when

the Rev. James MacGreQOY. 15W" M1‘- MaciCircgor, of Pictou came here 101‘

servant of Christ graced these purl-S

in the service of his Master he trav- elled many a. leg-weary kasuv W the scattered settlements of these

three Maritime Provinces. Wherever and whenever the 01151011111131’ 1°!‘ 01" ganization appeared he was ready

with his counsel and advice and the church expansion of the early days prospered in his hands.

To this Island there came, in the year 1806, a young mm. M11 Pa" Gordon, from Caveewn. Swill-lid- He was licensed to preach the Gos- pel by the General Associate Synod of Scotland. He preached with ac- ceptance to the different settlements on the Island and. speedily received two calls, one from Malpeqlle. and one from the people of Cove Head, st. Petefs. and Buy Fortune He chose the latter call and was or- dained minister u. the people v! these parts in the same year that he arrived, the year 1806.

There was no organization, so he proceeded to establish church order, and ordained elders in the different districts. He preached the Gospel with much success and broke the

He went in but he did not; come out till his frail body was carried to its last resting-place 1n the cemetery at West St. ‘Peter's. There, today. a slanting slab marks the place where they laid him. Rev. Edward Pldgeon, grandfath- er of Dr. George Pldgeon. the'f1rst modeg-ator of the United Church of Canada, and his brother Dr. Leslie Pidgeon, succeeded to the ministry of this large congregation in the spring of 1812. The induction ser- vices were performed by Rev. John Keir (of Malpeque) and Rev. James MucGregor (of Pictou.) Mr. Pid- geon ministered with acceptance till the year 182i when circumstances rendered his resignation advisable. His successor was the Rev. Robert Douglas, whose induction took place in October, of the year, 1821. It was in that Tiber that the Presbytery of Prince Edward Island was constit- uted. and Mr. Douglas was chosen clerk. The other members were Rev. John Keir, Malpeque, moder- ator, Rev. William MncGregor, Richmond Bay, and Mr. Edward Ramsay. Malpeque, elder.

Rev. Robert Douglas is the Eluhdfathcr-of Dr. James Falconer of Pine Hill Divinity Hall, Halifax, and Sir Robert Falconer, elf-Pres, of Toronto University.

Congregation Divided

It was during the ministry of Mr. DQ118111: that this congregation ex- perienced its first division. In 1843 and on the 5th of" July, it wgs deem. ed wise to divide it into two-“Vllest St. Peter's and Cove Head forming one. and East St. Peter's and Bay Fortune forming the other. Rev, James Allan became the minister of the western charge, and lvn. Doug. las continued for three years his ministry in East St. Peter's and Bay Fortune. He died in Oct. 1846.

The minutes that was placed on the records of Presbytery at the time of his death reads: “The Pres- bytery record their deep sense of the loss sustained 1n the death of RW- Robert Dvusias. as a. faithful unwearled, and persevering laborer in the Lord's vineyard, as a. brother- With Whom their intercourse had ever been both pleasant and prof. ltable, as a. true friend, and as a disciple of the Saviour, distinguish. ed by sincere and unaffected piety and great Christian simplicity and humility."

In July 1352 this congregation 88W 11 call to Mr. Henry Crawford, a theological student at Halifax, N. S. Mr. Crawford finished his 5911M‘ wear at college, and. was or- deified and inducted on the 18th of Cxtober, 1853. He entered upon the ministerial! duties of this large and interesting field with great energy; and it may be said of him that during the whole period of his min- istry he was abundant in labors. So did the work prosper in his hands that the years of his min.- lstry are marked by the changes that brought about the present boundaries of the congregation. In March, 1858, Bay Fortune and Soul-ls were constituted a. separate charge: and 1n June, 1850. West St. Peter's and Mt. Stewart were disjoined to form another congre- gation under the ministry of Rev, Alex. Falconer.

Mr. Crawford ended a ministry of twenty-one yearn, a ministry o: great diligence, 1n 1874, to accept a call to the congregation of Rich. mond Bay.

Steady Program

After Mr. Crawford's removal the congregation was vacant for two years. In 1876 a call given to the Rev. S. C. Gunn was accepted and Mr. Gunn was inducted in July of

that year. His pastorate was marked by steady progress. He proved him- self an able and successful minister and was greatly beloved by his con- gration. He resigned in 1833 to a.c- cept a call to Sfpringfleld, N. 5-. after a. pastorate of a little over seven years. -

On the 16th of March, I886, a re- lationship was effected which was to last through a. quarter of a cen- tury. On that date Mr. J. W Mne- Kenzle. B. A. was ordained and inducted minister, in the old church at Midgell. He was not Onily the last to be inducted there, his was the last voice to speak from its pul- pit the wonderful words of life.

During the early days of his min- istry the church at St. Peter's Bay was opened for worship, and m, Mhy 30, 1888, this building in which we are gathered here tonight. Both churches were finished and freed of debt. thanks to the Century Fund and the superior ability and pop- ularity of Mr. Mackenzie.

It ls hardly necessary to speak further of the ministry of one who labored with the finest faithfulness and whose memory is written 1n the fleshy tables of many a. heart in this congregation here tonight. His translation to Belfast in 1910 end- ed a Iplendid service in this corner 0f Christ's Kingdom, and only lengthened the cords that bound pastor and people.

He was not here but God's work must be carried on, and on the 23rd of December, 1912, the Rev. J. M. Macbecd, M. A., of New Mills in the Presbytery of Mlramlchi, was inducted into the ministry of this congregation at the church at St. Peter's Bay. Mr. MacLeods pastor- ate lasted for fifteen and a hull years, coming to a. close on the 2411i of June, 192B. since he is on the platform here tonighhone must moderate ones Language and the manner of one's praise, but it vrould be unfair to the success of his min- istry not to say how highly he W215 held as a preacher of the Word of God and lover of mankind.

Consummation of Union

‘lb the wise counsel of Mr. Mac- Leod goes the credit of leading the congregation successfully through the troubled times of the year 1925 and the consummation of Union, resulting in the whole charge go- lng 8s a body into the United Church of Canada and enriching its fellowship by joining with ths for. mer Methodists of this community.

Ibllvwing Mr. MacLcodk retire- ment the congregation was vacant for twelve months, being, Very ac. cert-ably supplied by Rev. A. J. Murchison, an Islander by birth and a. minister of the Presbyterian Church in the U. B.

In July 1929 there was inducted into the pastor oversight of this Charge the Rev. John Adamson. Mr. Adamsorrs ministry was brief, but he made fast friends. He left here at the end of June 1932, his life’: work ended, for in less than s11: months he had passed thru the Valley of the Shadow into the Life beyond.

The minister incumbent came here just eleven months ago to take. up the work passed down from great and good hands.

The Congregation is inlte 127th year. The present minister is the 9th on its roll. It has to its record an average pastorate of slightly under sixteen years. ‘rwo of the first eight ministers died in the pas- torate. One resigned to retire. Five transferred to other charges. Three of the eight began their pastoral work in this charge.

God burice his workmen but car- ries on the work, and eo not for- getting the things that are behind, and reaching forward to the things that are before let us press towards the mark for the prize of the high calllng_of God in Christ Jesus.

I n I . I Painful Piles Go Quick-No Cutting-No Bnlvee

Thousands who have itching, bleeding or protruding piles have not yet learned that quick and last- ing relief can only be accomplished with an internal medicine. Neither- salves nor suppositories remove the cause.

Bud circulation of blood in the lower bowel causes piles. The hem- orrholdal veins are flabby, the bowel walls weak-the parts almost dead. To get rid of Piles an internal medi- cine must be used to stimulate the circulation, drive out the thick im- pure blood. heal and restore the af- fected parts.

Dr. J. S. Leonhnrdt, after years of study, found a real internal Pile remedy. He called his discovery HEM-ROID, and prescribed it for 1000 patients with success in over 900 cases, and then decided ' every Pile sufferer, no matter how stub- born their case, might try his pre- scription with a money back guar- antce.

animus mum OTIAWA- The many friends of Mr. .1. H. lidyers, M. P., are welcoming him. back from Ottawa. at the close of the session. Mk‘. Myers states that the last few weeks were very ted- ious due to the unnecessary speech- maklng by a. few rngnbers of the opposition who had nothing to say but took plenty of time to say it. Under ordlnaryucircumstancee the session should have concluded at Blaster as the business could easily have been completed by that time. It is the opinion of m. Myers that if the Economic Conference at Inndon agrees upon a scheme cf standardization of exchange or other economic measures, it will be necessary to have a. late session of parliament to ratify them.

FUNERAL AT HAMPTON-Mic very large and representative atten- dance of mourners at the funeralof

Hampton, yesterday afternoon testified to the high regard in which he was held by the com- munity. Mr. Cameron had not been in good health for a. long time. (although able to be about his duties as usual) but his death occurred on Monday follow- ing only a. brief illness. He leaves to mourn his widow and one son and one daughter to whom heartfelt sympathy is ex- tended by a. large circle of friends. and acqurintanoes. The funeral service, which was very impressive, was conducted by the Rev. George Ayres who spoke feelingly of the support in church work which he had invariably received from m. Cameron.
