lty,above can estimate the result of these
years of faithful efforts. But -while
we rejoice in oar abundant - success
with deep regret we are Called upon to
announce the deatirof some of pnr most
earnest workers. One of these, Mrs.
Eliza J. Patterson, was one of the found
ers of this society, and for more than
twenty years was permitted to labor for
its advaricement as a manager and , dis
tributor. Thia humble, earnest, conse
crated.servant of Christ, like her blessed
Master ever went about doing good, and
like Do rcas,i she Was often supplying the
'wants Of the needy. She lived to glorify
her Redeemer, and after spending half a
century in faithful labor for His cause.
in the evening of life, at the advanced age
of three score and two, she has been
called to rest from her labors, to lay
down the Cross. and to put on the crown
richly decked (as we earnestly believe)
with stars which represent those whom
she had led to Jesus. And though re
moved from our band of faithful work
ers, her memory is most precious and
her noble example is ever before us in
citing us to renewed efforts in the Mae
ters Cause. But another consecrated
one has been taken from our number.
Misa Tillie E. Fleeson, a faith
ful manager, a -kindly, successful
'visitor, has been summoned to
the Master's presence to hear the joyous
greeting, "Servant of .God, well done,
thy mansion is prepared, thy crown is
ready, enter into the joy of thy Lord."
She was ever at her pest, always faith
ftil, and though called away before life's
bright meridian had been attained, her
labors foirthe good of others were many.
How kindly we-chensh her memory,
and may we all profit by her most excel
lent example. Still. another has left us
. this year, Miss McCullen, after several
years of earnest 'effort as a distributor,
has peacefully departed, to enter
upon the _blessed reward of herlabors.
Thus one by one the crowns are given,
these, all died in faith, and now rest in
God. And, now, kind Mends, we ask
your prayers, contributions and assts.

Christian - liberality, the - Society-is clear

friends of the Society , to the pastors of
the Churches, to the ristian public, we
appeal for laborers. Will not =some of
those, whom God has blessed with health,
wealth and time to work for Jesus,
come to onr aid, seek out the lost and
perishing, and tell them of a- Saviour's
love? Your assistance is greatly needed;
how can you refuse it? How can you, at
the Saviour's feet, before the awful judg
ment seat, lay down for golden sheaves.

Some of our faithful workers have been
