One of the Provinces oldest and most widely-known Hotestant ciergymen in the person of the Rev. Dr. Morgan E. Genge, Ph. D., ’ away yesterday morning in the Prince Edward Island Hospital. He was as years old.

Dedicated to the ministry before birth. Dr. Genge as a, young man

ambition of his parents. Born at the fishing towin of Channel. New- foundland. the future clergyman often had to interrupt his academic studies by going to sea in order to earn sufficient money for his tuition. But even aboard those seal- huntlnrr vessels of twp generations ago. the ability of the youth was noticed by the officers of the vari- ous ships on which he sailed and he was encouraged to study navi- gation. He did so with such effect that he became a qualified master- marlner at the early has of 20.

tudied and Saiiod

‘in the meantime. theological professors from Oxford University had been sent to Newfoundland and the young sea-captain became an ardent student of theology. To pay his expenses for his theologic- al training. he was forced at times to intemrpt his studies to take command of some seal-hunting vessel.

As an ordained clergyman of the Church of Christ. Dr-Gcrtge estab- lished the first church of that de- nomination at Murray Harbour. and for some years was pastor of the Central Christian Church in Charlottetown.

In the year i027. Dr. Genge was accepted as a minister of the Pres- byterian Church of Canada and held pastorates at Kensingron. Montague. Marshfleld. Burden. Tryon. and Brcadnibane in this Province and at Harcourt. Chat- hnm. and Newcastle in New Bruns- wick.

His great organizing ltbiiliy was frequently made use of by his Church and during his 1on1: service as n minister of the Gospel hc had been responsible for the building of several churches.
