MR. D. MACKINNON, NORTH BALLACHULISH.
IT is with much regret that we intimate, this month, the death of Mr. Duncan Mackinnon, elder, North Ballachulish, who passed away on the 6th August. Mr. Mackinnon, who was several years over the allotted span, was in failing health for some time, but his last illness was comparatively short. He was a Christian of outstanding worth and weight, and an earnest wrestler at the throne of grace. His removal makes a great blank in the community and in the Church, and in the hearts of all who knew and loved him. We extend our deepest sympathy to his widow in her great loss, and hope to have a fuller notice in a future issue.

MR. JOHN PARKER, M.A., ABERDEEN.
It is with sincere sorrow that we briefly notice this month the death of Mr. John Parker, M.A., advocate, Aberdeen, who passed away at his residence, 52 Skene Terrace, there, on the 16th August. Mr. Parker, who was eighty-four years of age, was a member of the John Knox’s Free Presbyterian Congregation, Glasgow, since its beginning in 1896. A humble, sincere follower of Christ, he was deeply interested in the welfare of Church and State, and his death makes a felt blank. But as we hope to have a fuller sketch at a later date, we conclude meantime by expressing our deepest sympathy with his esteemed sister, Miss Parker, in her great loss.
