S. Wright said he felt sure that the good people who had built the old chapel, and who have passed away to the better land, were very well pleased with what they had accomplished. Since that date changes had be- come apparent. Every change was not always an improvement, but in this particular case everyone would concur with him that the alterations had been well done. He hoped that the time was not far distant when the whole of the deficit would be wiped off. (Applause.)—The Pastor stated that he had received a letter from Mr. F. Boston, en- closing a donation, and the chairman had handed a cheque for JE5. The choir favoured the audience with an anthem in an enjoyable manner, accom- panied by Mr. Peter Earlam.—The Rev. C. H.

The clerk of the works, Mr. Peter Earlam, had conscientiously carried out his duties.—The Revs. H. Hooper, T. H. Bailey and C. H. Percival also addressed the meeting, the latter calling upon Mr. Noden to present to the Rev. C. H. Butcher a purse of gold, in token of their heartfelt thanks for the arduous work which he had so ably performed in the role of architect. —Mr. Butcher expressed his thanks. The offer- tories of the day amounted to £ 27.
