Death of Two Elders.—It is with sincere regret that we have to record again the removal of two of our elders—Mr. Donald MacCallum, Kames, who reached the great age of 95 and Captain Macintyre, Lochyside, Fort William. We hope to have fuller notices of these worthy men in a future issue. Meantime we extend our sincere sympathy to their relatives and the congregations in which they were office-bearers.
Deputy to Western Canada.—The Rev. Finlay Macleod, the Church’s deputy to Western Canada, sailed from Glasgow on 14th April. We wish him the Lord’s blessing on his labours among our people in Canada.
