By previous arrangement it was t agreed on the part of the people of the charge to rurprise the pastor and bis fam ily in the way of a donation visit. The day, however, was unfavorable. A few frem the country and most of those living in Aaronsburg and Millheim, numbering about twenty families, were represented. A few hours were pleasantly spent in so cial Intercourse, after which our friends re" tired, leaving behind them tangible evi dence of their kindness and good will, In the sba(ie of articles of clothing, groceries, butter, fruit, horse feed and a purse of sil ver for the pastor's wife. We take picas j ure in noting the fact that all the families in Aaronsburg, of the Presbyterian church, took a generous part In the act of kind ness. For these and all other gifts fre quently received from our kind people throughout the charge, we record our sin ' cere thanks, and invoke upon them the blessing of heaven, i For several days afterwards others eon ' tinued to report themselves st the parson - | age. and on the V'lh several sleds arrived j loaded with valuable tokens of regard i from members of the Salem's congregation. Besides this, boxes and packages prepared for the day first appointed, were hero and i there placed ip the pastor's sleigh as be chanced to meet the kind donora whilst j out in pursuit of bis accustomed duties There are happy hearts at the parsonage flrsaide, and it is hoped that those who made them so are equally happy in the giving. 7.
