Having glow“ up amongst us and having been, as it were (we of ourselves, perhaps cauaes us to feel rhn separation more so than we would otherwiae have done. Latterly your association with us as mem- bers of the choir of the Methodist Church has very much increased the attachment we feel coward you ; and the fact of your being our organist causes us to feel the sep- aration more keenly. We cannot conceal from you the loss we feel we are about to sustain in your removal from us in that par- ticular matter. You have proved yourself, to be an eflicient, as well as a. gentle and kind leaderandwetaké thjsopportunity toex- press to you our thanks for the service you have rendered us in this direction and beg you to accept in addition thereto the accom- panying Music Case as a further evidence of our affection and good will towards you.
