Synod Meeting.
The Synod of the Free Presbyterian Church of Scotland will meet, the Lord willing, in the Church, Inverness, on Tuesday, the 18th day of May, 1954, at 6.30 p.m., when the retiring Moderator, Rev. Donald Campbell, Edinburgh, will conduct public worship.—ROBERT R. SINCLAIR, Clerk of Synod.
The late Mr. T. Sunter of Messrs. N. Adshead & Son.
We have received word from the firm of Messrs. N. Adshead & Son, the printers of the Magazines, that Mr. Thomas Sunter, Proprietor, passed away on the 8th of April after a prolonged illness. This news we have received with sincere regret. We and others of the Church who have had personal business contact with the late Mr. Sunter found him to be a gentleman and a man of principle in his business dealings with us. It was apparent for some years that his health was declining. His death will indeed be a loss to the firm, and we extend our sympathy to his relatives and members of the staff of Messrs. N. Adshead & Son, especially Mr. Perston and Mr. Wilson, who are actively engaged in the issuing of our Church Magazines. It is to be hoped that Mr. Sunter’s removal will not adversely affect the carrying on of this efficient printing establishment of many years’ standing, with which the Church has been connected during a period of over 50 years.
