A Note from North Uist.
The people of Claddach, North Uist, wish to express through the medium of the Magazine their most grateful thanks to the young men and women of the district resident in Vancouver for their substantial contribution of 34 dollars, equivalent to £6 19s. 7d., towards defraying expense in connection with a new meeting-house which is to be built at Claddach. The people of Uist are deserving of all support when we take into consideration the fact that they have been all along without a fixed pastor, and their laudable efforts in erecting suitable places of worship claim every encouragement. In connection with these efforts we cannot help mentioning the name of Mr. John M’Donald, merchant, Dusary, for his disinterested labours and kindness in promoting those objects.
