THE REV. J. TITUS DEPARTURE FROM PEMBROKE DOCK. Interesting Presentation. On Wednesday evening a large number of church people assembled at St. John's School- room, Pembroke Dock, i'or the purpose of wit- nessing a presentation to the Rev. J. Titus, who, after being for seven years senior curate at Pembroke Dock, was about to leave for Llan- dovery. The vicar (Rev. S. T. Phillips) pre- sided, and amongst others present were the Rev. Jason Thomas, Rev. Keble Williams,, Lieut. Bennett, Messrs. W. H. Harries, C. T. Davies, H. Hinchcliffe, G. H. Teesdale, H. G. Truscott, A. W. Smith, W. Joseph, G. Williams, Morse, etc. A letter was read from Mr. R. Thomas, one of the churchwardens, regretting his inability to be present. The Vicar said that the Committee who had I organised the testimonial to Mr. Titus had in- I sisted that he should be present that evening. I He need hardly say that if anything would I draw him out—though it was a long time since 1 he had attended an evening meeting—it was the { opportunity of wishing "Good-bye" to Mr. Titus and bearing testimony as to his good qualities. He should like it to go out that Mr. Titus left the parish with the hearty good wshes and sincere appreciation of the Vicar, with whom he had been working for the last seven years. When he said appreciation he did not mean that he was glad to see his back. What he meant was that during the time Mr. Titus had been with him, he had carved out for himself a very large place in his affections. Some years ago lie was sitting on a platform in the Church House in London at a very big gathering. A speaker got up and spoke. He waxed very eloquent and sawed the air with his arms. For some reason, though he knew the speaker's name well, his remarks did not appeal to him. He turned to a WelsfiShan on the platform and asked him in Welsh what sort of a man the speaker was. Tho reply was "papur llwydd" (brown paper). His idea of the man was at once formed. Some years ago when he was. looking for someone to come there the name of Mr. Titus was brought to his notice. He made an appointment to meet him at Swansea. Before he saw Mr. Titus he saw the same clergyman at a similar gathering of clergymen. As in London, he asked "What do you think of this man coming on," referring to Mr. Titus. The reply came "What do you want to know for?" He said, "I want to know," and the clergyman replied "ceffyl cart" (cart-horse). (Laughter). He thought, "This cart-horse is the man I should like working for me." They might have a hunter who would be full of sprint, but he might shy at a little bit of brown or white paper, but the cart-horse, when in the shafts, would pull and pull until he died. That was the man he wanted working with him. He wanted a man who, when there was work to do, would stick to it and would not give in. That had been the impression they must have received of Mr. Titus. It was plea- sant to look back after seven years upon the time in which Mr. Titus had been his fellow- worker. He did not believe very much in the man who could go into the pulpit and string words together to move the emotions of men, but he believed in the man who could tell the people things which they would not forget. He thought those who had been privileged to hear Mr. Titus would bear him out in this, they would not think of his eloquence but of his home truths. (Applause). He thought that many of these would be long remembered, and mentioning several instances of Mr. Titus's apt illustrations he said that they would not forget these in a hurry. Mr. Thomas in his letter had mentioned Mr. Titus's loyalty, and he could bear this statement out. Loyalty on the part of the assistant clergy was a very important thing. One man must be in charge and the others must help him to carry out his plans. The plans might be made as the re- sult of consultation, but once adopted the plans must be carried out, and if the assistant clergy were not loyal, it was almost impossible for Church work to be carried on in a parish. During the last seven years in spite of trouble and difficulty Mr. Titus had loyally carried out the plans which had been adopted. Naturally enough in his (the Vicar's) sickness and weak- ness, a great deal of responsibility had fallen upon Mr. Titus' shoulders, which would not have come to him if he had been as active as he used to be, but Mr. Titus had always been thoroughly loyal, and he had felt that he had someone whom he could trust to take his place. Next to loyalty in parish work was tact, and he thought they would all agree that Mr. Titus had been most tactful in his dealings. He did not suppose that anyone was able to think of a single instance where Mr. Titus had said anything that caused trouble. Mr. Titus was full of zeal and he loved his work. He had never yielded to the temptation to slacken work and had never required any spurring from him. He had never to tell Mr. Titus to do this or do that. He had always done it. (Applause). The Vicar then alluded to Mr. Titus's hobbies of gardening and wood-carving and said that he believed in a man with a fad, for by de- voting himself to that fad he kept himself out of mischief and was able to work all the better. One other thing he wished to say about Mr. Titus. There were some men who went about gassing and talking as if their lives de- pended upon it. They could not keep a secret and if they had an idea they must bring it out. But if ever they wanted to find the Sphinx out- side Egypt let them look at Mr. Titus. There were some things which had happened in the parish, which he had not told even him, and very often he (tho speaker) could see that Mr. Titus had something on his mind. but he would not let it off. The result was that the parish peace had been unbroken. Mr. Titus knew the golden rule of keeping his tongue still. He did not speak when he should not, but he was able to speak out when he ought to speak, and that was the great secret of his success there. He could only say that when Mr. Titus left for Llandovery he left behind a Vicar who did not know exactly what he should do without him, but wherever he went he would carry with him the good wishes of a large proportion of Pembroke Dock people. (Applause). He had with considerable interest, looked through the list of subscribers to the movement of getting a gift for Mr. Titus and it was a striking fact that over 220 persons in the parish had contri- buted towards the gift. In conclusion, the Vicar made some jocular remarks regarding some of these rumours thfit had been going round the parish with regard to Mr. approaching marriage, and said that despite the rumours Mr. Titus was not a married man yet. Mr. H. Hinchcliffe also spoke at length and said that Mr. Titus deserved everything the Vicar had said, though he did not agree with the Vicar that Mr. Titus was a mere cart-horse. If Mr. Titus had been a cart-horse they would find that lie would no: remain so. When he went to Llandovery and became a real Benedict he expected to see him speedily preferred. To go to an intellectual centre like Llandovery showed that Mr. Titus was confident of his own ability to carry him through, and if he had been the cart-horse at Pembroke Dock he was going to be something elke at Llan- dovery. (Applause). He congratulated Mr. Titus very much upon securing a post in a place like Llandovery. (Applause). Lieut. Bennett then made a few remarks and said that although he had only a short ac- quaintance with Mr. Titus, he should like to endorse what the other speakers had said, and he wished him long life, happiness, and pros- perity in his profession. Mr. W. H. Harries, ths people's warden, was the next speaker and he remarked that they all regretted that Mr. Titus was leaving, but their loss was Llandovery's gain, and he had no doubt that Mr. Titus' removal would lead to a speedy preferrment. After giving some inter- esting reminiscences of previous curates, of whom he said he remembered eighteen or twenty, he said that their friend had been as good, if not better tlvn any other gentleman they had had. They had ways found him kind-hearted, sympathetic, and unaffected, and these were grand qualities for a clergyman of the Church of EnglaTId. On behalf of the Church people of Pembroke Dock, he asked Mr. Titus to accept a silver tea and coffee ser- vice. and he felt that he was expressing the feelings of the congregation of the Parish Church of St. Teilo's Mission, when he said that they most sincerely hoped that he would live long to be able to carry ou that most noble, honourable, and glorious work as a minister of Christ's Church. (Applause). He then handed Mr. Titus the silver service, which bore the following inscription: "Present- ed to the Rev. John Titus, B.A., by the congre- gations of the Parish Church and St. Teilo's Mission. Pembroke Dock, as a token of good- will and esteem. Christmas, 1908." The T. Titus, upon rising to reply, was accorded musical honours. He said that lie thought this was the most difficult time he had ever had in his life. He wished it was the rule, as it was at some meetings, to take the minutes as read, to take his feelings as read also. It was not that lie had a great deal to say, but that he felt it rising in big lumps in his throat. The Vicar had told them that he was a silent man and spoks but very little, and that night he did not think he would de- stroy the reputation he had been given, by saying too much. He, however, did want to say something of the happ relations which had always existed between him and the Vicar ever since he had been in Pembroke Dock. When he left he should have only happy memories of the times he had worked with him and he did not wish for a better man as a superior, than he had had in him. He had always spoken his mind and had allowed him to speak his mind too, and they had got on very well together. With regard to the people of Pembroke Dock, he could only say he did not want to find a better congregation. When he wanted anything done he had always found them ready and willing to do it. That he had a pleasant feeling towards the people of Pem- broke Dock, was, he thought, shown by the selection he had made of a present to take away with him. He chose something that the should appreciate so long as he lived. (Ap- plause). He selected it as something which he felt would cheer him and which he would ap- preciate as long as he was in the world. It would always be before him to remind him of the happy days he had spent amongst them. He thanked them very much for this token of their respect and esteem, and he did not know that he deserved all the good things which had been said about, him. He felt like the Bishop of Stepney when he read the papers the day after he had been appointed Arch- bishop of York, and he felt that he did not know himself. (Laughter). He thanked them very much for what they, had said and what they had done. (Applause). Mr. H. G. Truscott moved a vote of thanks to the Vicar for taking the chair. This was seconded by Mr. A. W. Smith, and carried, and proceedings concluded with the singing of the National Anthem Dnring the evening solos were rendered by Mr. T. Allen. Mr. R. Thomas, and Miss Mar- jorie Hancock. A duett was given by the Misse3 K. MacDonald and Marjorie Hancock, and a gl-e "Simple Simon," by Messrs. T. Allen, T. Luly. G. Davies. J. Thomas, W. James and H. Greenland. WIoL-.

FOOTBALL League Benefit at Pembroke Dock. MILFORD MEN TOO GOOD FOR SOUTH PEMBROKESHIRE TEAM. An interesting match, the proceeds of which were devoted to the funds of the Pembroke- shire Football League was played at Pembroke Dock on Saturday between elevens representing the teams North and South of the Haven. The team from the North was selected from two Milford teams, whereas their opponents were selected from the whole of the six clubs in Pembroke Dock and district which include Pembroke Dock, The Scots Abroad, Llanreath, Apprentices, the Royal Garrison Artillery, and Departmental Athletic. The Pembroke Dock team which took the field was, however, by no means the strongest that could have been selected for several of the men originally chosen did not turn out. At any rate they did not make a brilliant show against Milford and were defeated by 4-1. There was a very fair crowd when the teams lined up as follows:— Pembroke Dock and District. Jones (P.D.A.C.) goal; N. Berry (P.D.A.C.) and Miller (Scots Abroad), backs; Davidson (Scots Abroad), Maples (Llanreath), and Maddocks (P.D.A.C.), halves; Ivor Thomas (P.D.A.C.), Nott (R.G.A), Onslow (P.D.A.C.), Brown (Departmental), and Shears (Llanreath), forwards. Milford District.-Frice (United), goal; Shep- herd (Priory and Smith (United) backs; Bough (United), John (Priory), and Saunderson ^Unit- ed), halves; Mr. Davies (United), Adams (Unit- ed), Huggins (United), B. Davies (Priory), and A. Smith (United) forwards. Referee.—Mr. E. Jenkins, Pembroke Dock. Linesman— L. C. Jacobs (Departmental), and Mr. F. G Williams (Apprentices). The Pembroke Dock team, playing with the slope in their favour, attacked at once and Brown was soon prominent. Beating Shepherd, he sent in a stinging sli-t which Frise knocked down and cleared. Next moment a miskiek by Smith let him through again, and he calmly brought the ball close in, and then tapped it into the net, giving Frise no chance at all. The Pembroke Dock team again attacked, and found the Milford backs rather rocky, Shepherd being everything but safe, though he subse- quently improved considerably. A foul against Maples resulted in play nearing round to the other end of the goal. Jones fisted out, but Smith headed back and B. Davies found the net, but the goal was disallowed, the referee considering that the custodian had been im- peded and Davies also being offside. A corner was conceded by Berry next minute, and Jones again fisted out, whilst a hard drive from Saunderson was headed away by Miller. The latter was apparently in form, and next moment he relieved the pressure by a dashing clearance. Onslow brought the ball to the other end and shot just over. Milford, however, were soon attacking again, and the Pembroke Dock halves, with the exception of Davidson, failed to hold the opposing forwards. The two backs cleared well time after time, but the Milford van persisted in their attacks and were con- stantly dangerous. Presently Mat Davies put in a good square centre, and Smith dashing up, met the ball and banged in a tremendous shot. Someone was seen to bound across the goal and tip the ball over the bar in first-class style, but it turned out that it was not the goal-keeper but Miller,who, bein!: an old goal-keeper, could not (restraint his linstinots apparently. The crowd fairly chortled when they realised what had occurred, and their smiles broadened when Jones saved the penalty in capital style, knock- ing down the shot put in by Huggins and kick- ing away colly. Th Milford men pressed again and a corner was forced on the right. The flag kick was nicely placed and an exciting scramble occured in the goal-mouth, during whih a penalty was awarded against Davidson. This was taken by Adams, and he made no mistake about it, bringing the scores level with a low shot into the corner of the net. Milford continued to attack and their opponents were soon hard pressed once more. From a long kick by Smith at back, the Milford left got going and A. Smith made an opening for Bert Davies, who gave his side the lead with a show, which Jones just touched, but failed to divert. Milford continued to have the better of the game, and their forwards combined very well, quite outclassing the Pembroke Dock halves. The Pembroke Dock forwards rarely got going, and the two outside men were both passengers, being fairly bottled up by Bough and Sanderson respectively. At the interval Milford were leading by 2-1. The second half was nearly all in Milford's favour, and they attacked briskly as soon as the leather was in motion. A corner was forced off Miller and there was some exciting play in front of the Pembroke Dock goal. Several good chances were missed through erratic shooting, but Jones frequently had to handle, and he gave a very good exhibition. The Milford halves, however, fed the forwards well, and the backs came almost up to the half line, and frequently dropped the ball in front of goal. It was from one of these kicks that the thiid goal came. Smith tried a long shot, and Miller got his head to it, but the ball rose in the air and dropped in front of goal. Huggins beat Jones in the scramble and headed over the custodian's head into the net. Milford pressed again and from a corner were again dangerous. Adams eventually beat Jones from close quarters, but this was given offside. Pem- broke Dock then went away and forced a corner. This was cleared, but Nott broke away again and another corner followed, but proved fruitless. Then Shepherd cleared and Bert Davies sent over at the other end. Shears re- turned and centred nicely, xbut Smith cleared in fine style. Huggins led an attack to the other end, but Berry broke it up nicely, and a rush by Nott resulted in a corner at the other end. A scramble followed, in the course of which a penalty was given against Shepherd. Onslow took the kick and sent in a hard drive. but Frise dashing across the goal made a sensational save at the expense of a corner. Milford attacked once more, and Huggins as the result of an encounter with Miller had to take a temporary rest, but soon got up again. A little later Huggins came through the opposing defence with the ball at his toes and passed to Adams, who banged in number four in no uncertain goal. Milford kept up the pressure, but could not get through again, and the game ended with the scores:—Milford District, 4; Pembroke Dock District, 1. There was no doubt as to the superiority of the Milford team, and very likely this was due to the fact that eight of the men came from one club. The three Priory men, however, acquitted themselves very well. John at centre forward, played a capital game, Bert Davies played a clever game forward, and Shepherd at back, though very weak at first, improved as the game went on and kicked exceedingly well in the second half. The three Milford de- f were all good; in fact. the team had not a weak spot. The veteran Bough was the best half on the field and worked tirelessly. Of the forwards the two wingers were much in evidence as compared with their opponents, and the inside men combined well. The Pembroke Dock defence were sound, but the halves were very poor indeed, and so were the two w, 'ii-, forwards. Davidson was the only half worth his place, and he went off as the proceeded. Maples and Maddocks were both very disappointing, though the latter held some excuse, as he hurt his leg early in the same. Brown and Onslow were the best for- wards, but Nott improved towards the close of the game. As to the wingers, they both did very little, and appeared to be afraid of their opponents, when they should have trusted to their speed to carry them through. There is no doubt that if Parrott had been playing in the centre with Onslow at centre half, and the two Sileox's and Brown and Fowler on the wins, the Milford men would have had a very different opposition to meet.
