MR DAVID MEAGER, J.P. I Memorial Tab!et to be Placed I in the Ragged School. At a meeting held at the Ragged School on Wednesday evening it was de- cided to place in that school a memorial .tablet to the late Mr. David Meager, who, for the long period of 63 years, served it faithfully and lovingly. From 1872 until ".bis death he was its superintendent. During that long period he had many discouragements, but he never lost faith. and perhaps one of the proudest days of his life was when the school removed from the old building in Orchard-street to the splendid building it now occupies. His work for other religious and euari- table organisations is well known. A. tablet is also to be placed in the, school to commemorate the long and j faithful service of the late Mr. Thomas Harrison, who was a teacher and trea- surer of the Sanday School for nearly 40 years. Mr. T .Ewart Da vies, 22. Bryn-y-Mor- creseent, is the hon. secretary of the com- mittee.
