A Note of Thanks.
The Rev. N. Cameron desires to thank, with sincere gratitude, all the friends who inquired or wrote concerning him during his late serious operation, especially such as remembered him in their prayers from day to day. He hopes that friends will accept of this inadequate acknowledgment instead of a reply to each, which would entail labour beyond his present strength. He desires to thank the Lord for the unmerited goodness and mercy with which He dealt with him in this affliction and for the good measure of health to which He has already restored him.
Day of Humiliation.
The Northern and Southern Presbyteries have appointed the 2nd day of December (Wednesday) as a day of Humiliation and Prayer in connection with the crisis through which the country is passing. At the time of writing this note we have not received word from the Clerks of the Western Presbytery and the Presbytery of the Outer Isles as to whether their Presbyteries have agreed to the above date or not, but word will be sent to their congregations when the date is fixed for these Presbyteries.
