A short time ago several members of the Kirk session of St. James’ Church waited upon Miss Jane Morrison, at her fathers residence, and presented her with the fol- | lowing address :— To Miss Jane A. Morrison : The Kirk Session of St. James’ Church, on behalf of the congregation, desire to embrace the opportunity offered on the eve of your ap- proaching marriage, to express their sense of the valuable services which you have render- ed, in sustaining, with others, the psalmody of the church, in the choir, Sabbath Schooi, and prayer meetings connected-with the con- egation, and to convey to you st the same time an expression of regard in which you are heli, not only by themselves, but also, as they believe, by the congregation generally. They request yeur acceptance of the accom- panying testimonial, suggested by the services referred to, not in any sense as remuneration for the eame, which they feel assured were ou your part a labor of love for the church in which you have been for severa years a con- sistent member, but as an expression of per sonal attachment and good will. With best wishes for your happiness and welfare in the new relations into which you are about to enter, ; We remain yours, in Christian regard, in name, and on behalf of the Kirk Session. R. Macitennay, Modr. H{. Kennepy, Clerk. Charlottetown, Dee., 1981. A silver-p.ated service of five pieces and an urn of chaste design and workmanship were presented at the same time. The lat- ter bore an inscription setting forth that the gift was in name and on behalf of the congregation, who contributed most cor- dially and readily towards it, The poet laureate of the congregation also presented his most tender and ap- preciative sentiments in verse. As some of the contributors, and others, may desire to see the set above referred to, they will have an opportunity of doing #0, by calling at the store of Mr. Wellner, Jeweller, &c., on Queen’s Square. —CoM, oo Geo.
