A. lege, *. , • Lord, have mercy upon us. Christ, have mercy upon us. Lord, have mercy upon us. Prevent us, Lord, in all our doings, with Thy most era- cious favour, and farther us with Thy continual help ; mat in all our works, begun, continued, and ended in Thee, we may glorify Thy Holy Name, and finally, by Thy mercy, obtain everlasting life ; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. merciful God, who hast made all men, and hatest nothing that Thou hast made, nor wouldest the death of a sinner, but rather that he should be converted and live, have mercy upon the Heathen, and those who are in error. Take from them all ignorance, hardness of heart, and con- tempt of Thy Word, and so fetch them home, blessed Lord, to Thy flock, that they may be saved among the remnant of the true Lsraelites, and be made one Fold under one Shepherd, Jesus Christ, our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with Thee and the Holy Spirit, one G-od, world without end. Amen. God, from whom all holy desires, all good rsounsels, and all works of piety and charity do proceed, we beseech Thee prosper with Thy blessing the designs of this Society. Comfort with Thy grace those benefactors who contribute to its support. Bless the ministry of Thy servants the Clergy, the endeavour of all who are engaged in spreading the knowledge of true religion in the Dominions of our Sove- reign, and the labours of those Missionaries who are pro- claiming the same in this Province. And may Thy Holy Spirit direct all our consultations to the advancement of Thy glory, and the good of Thy Church, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. 8 i Almighty Saviour, Who by the right hand of God art exalted, and hast received of the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, shed forth Thy light and grace on this dark world. Thou who lovest a cheerful giver, grant Thy people grace that they may minister liberally of their sub- stance to the making known of Thy Name throughout the world. Grive Thy blessing to all who are labouring to spread the knowledge of Thy truth, and especially to those Missionary Societies which have ministered to the need of our Church in this Land. Prosper the work in which they are engaged, and make them the honoured instruments of spreading Thy gospel, and proclaiming Thy great and glo- rious Name. Hear us merciful Saviour, in these our pray- ers, and to Thee, with the Father, and the Holy Ghost, be ascribed all honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen. O God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, our only Saviour, the Prince of Peace, give us grace seriously to lay to heart the great dangers we are in by our unhappy divi- sions. Take away all hatred and prejudice, and whatsoever else may hinder us from godly Union and Concord ; that, as there is but one Body, and one Spirit and one Hope of our Calling, one Lord, one Faith, one Baptism, one God and Father of us all, so we may henceforth be all of one heart, and of one soul, united in one holy bond of Truth and Peace, of Faith and Charity, and may with one mind and one mouth glorify Thee ; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. Our Father, which art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive them that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation ; but deliver us from evil ; for Thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever and ever.

The Church Society of the Diocese of Quebec is hereby authorized to consider all the local endowment funds now in their hands or which may hereafter be placed in their hands, as one fund, for the purposes : (a) Of distributing proportionately over the whole any loss in capital that may occur through failure of investment ; (6) Of paying out all tHe interest received thereon propor- tionately at a uniform rate upon the capital of each local endowment fund. Provided there be nothing in the instrument creating such local endowment fund to the contrary. 2. Notwithstanding the provisions of article 981o of the Civil Code, the society is hereby authorized to invest money held by it as administrator or trustee thereof, in municipal stock or debentures, in real estate in the Dominion of Canada, or on first privilege or hypothec upon real estate in the Dominion of Canada, to an amount not exceeding three-fifths of the municipal valuation of such real estate,or in bonds of commercial corporations in the Dominion of Canada. All investments made up to date outside the limits of the Province are declared to be legal and valid as regards the authority of the Society to make them. 3. The act 45 Victoria, chapter 88, is repealed. . 4. This act shall come into force on the day of its sanction. V ^ #> tf I '« 15 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE CENTRAL BOARD FOR THE YEAR 1899. '■I (Presented to the Church Sociery, February "th, 1900 ) The following is a comparative statement of offerings and subscriptions received in aid of the Society's Funds in 1898 and 1899:— t COMPARATIVE STATEMENT.

The returns from the Districts of St. Francis, Ltegantic and Gaspe show in each case a slight improvement. The diminution is to be found in the returns from the City of Quebec. As will have been anticipated the cause is almost wholly due to the great loss which the Church has recently sustained in the death of those two great benefactors whose names have long been household words in every part of our Diocese— Dr. Robert Hamilton and the Hon. Senator Price. It is with much thankfulness, however, that we are able to report that so far as the Mission Fund is con- cerned, and to some extent the Pension Fund, the loss in income thus sustained through this channel will be made good by revenue from Bequests most thoughtfully made by them in behalf of the said Funds. Unostentatious in their manner of giving, and unwilling to admit that propor- tionately they gave more than many of their fellows. We could not, without offence, have made allusion to the fact during their life, but when now we state, as perhaps we may be permitted to do, that, apart from special gifts, the offerings of these two men in aid of the Society's Funds year by year equalled the combined offering of the rest of the Diocese, it will at once be realized how greatly we were indebted to them and how grave becomes the responsibilit/ 16 1 1 now resting upon us to redouble our efforts, and if possible our gifts, lest some of the good works which we have in hand suffer. These works, fostered by the Funds of the Society, have a claim upon the sympathy and support of every member of the Church. The work is ours in com- mon because designed for the extension of Christ's kingdom and God's glory. With the interested co-operation ol the Clergy and a more thorough, patient and intelligent can- vass made each autumn by our House-to-house Collectors, to whom already we are so much indebted, we feel sure, God helping us as He has mercifully done in the past, that there will be no retrograde step in any department of our work, but instead continued growth and increasing vitality. We have with pleasure noted the fact that frOm the Districts of St. Francis, Megantic and Gaspe, the returns show an increast3 in each case over the amounts received in 1898. It is further deserving of notice that in some of the Missions on the Gaspe Coast, the amount given per family for Church purposes last year averaged $19. When we bear in mind the precarious nature, for the most part, of their livelihood, the difficulty of obtaining remunerative employment in the winter, and the scarcity of money as a circulating medium, it will be admitted that this record is one deserving praise and one to be imitated. • /■• •i, ^ p GENERAL FUND. (To aid in the erection of Churches and Parsonages, in the support of Schools, in the education of the Children of the Clergy, in the formation of Local Endotvments ; oud to meet tlie general expanses of the fnanagement of the /Society.) In addition to defraying the expenses incidental to the management of the Society, the following grants were made from the General Fund last year: — Insurance of Church, Indian Reserve. New Church at Eustis. New Church on Melbourne Ridge. New Church at Kinn ear's Mills. Outfit grants to three Clergymen. Depository — Free grants 1897 and 1898. Education Fund. Education of Children of the Clergy. $902 41 $ 16 00 100 00 100 00 100 00 225 00 41 35 20 06 300 00 rmtm • T* «i< » * ■ • ' w Wc are pleased to in>te a more general obsiMvanco than ill 1808 of the Qninquagesima offering in iiid of this Fund. Thore still, however, remain many oongren-atious from whom no such off'oring was receiv* d. Not alone because it is a rule of the Church Society, but also as a gratt'ful recognition of aid received from this Fund in years none by, if not of late, every congregation should uiakt' aji offering on the appointed day in its behalf. Now more than evt'r, for reasons already given, we shall nwd i^uch united help. The receipts last year were $200 less than in 181)8. MISSION FUND. (For the payment of Stipends of Misaion/xries ; — the Fund Iwing siipi>lemi:ntiil hy the AHseiisments ofthv Rural Confjregationa, a grant from the t'Urinj Irnd Fund, and the intirfst of the Invested Capital of the Misnion Funds anil the Hamilton Bequest, — the whole administered by the Diocesan Board.) It is with much gratitude that we acknowledge the receipt of $5,000 in behalf of the Mission Fund and i^r),000 in behalf of the Bishop Williams Memorial Mission Fund, both amounts bequeathed by the late Hon. Sonator I'ricc. We have also to acknowledge with much gratitude the sum of $486, a legacy from the late Miss Charlotte Green, in aid of the Mission Fund. Through the Michsclraas offertory, devoted to this purpose, and the House-to-house Collection, the amount received last year was $2, 231. 2(3 less than in 1898. This falling off has already been accounted for in the main ; but apart from the cause above stated there is a slight decrease in the amount of our House-to- house Collections within the city. We desire to express our great indebtedness to the Association of Church Helpers, as also to the Chnrch Society Helpers for their good offices, well knowing how large a measure of patience and perseverance a Collector is called upon to exercise in the discharge of this missionary labour : yet so far as the City of Quebec is concerned, it must be confessed that the names of a great many Churchmen are conspicuous .by their absence from the subscription lists before us; while the amounts which do appear seem in most cases very small when the object is considered. For the applica- tion of the monfey to the credit of this Fund we refer our readers to the Report of the Diocesan Board of Missions, and to the interesting reports of the Missionaries them- selves found on subsequent pa^es of this Journal. 18 PENSION FUND. > (For the support of aged and infirm Clergymen.) During the past year another anuuitant, in the v^erson of the Venerable Archdeacon of Quebec, has been placed upon this Fund, making eight in all. It has been given to but few men in the Canadian Church to render greater services to the Missionary cause than have been rendered by Archdeacon Roe, directly and indirectly. Forty-seven years of uninterrupted service, characterized throughout by great mental and physical activity — eighteen of them in the important capacity of Professor of Divinity in Bishop's College, Lennox vi He with charge the meanwhile of a succession of new missions, — might naturally have been expected to exhaust the energy ot any man ; yet this long and severe strain has but dictated a change in the character of his work. Though compelled to relinquish the duties involved in the charge of a scattered mission, the Archdeacon, happily, continues to discharge his archidiaconal duties with unabated energy, and is ever ready to assist a clerical brother when in need. Our hope is that he may long be spared to give to the Diocese such services, and to the Church at largo the bene- fit of his ripe judgment and ready pen. The Pension Fund is now taxed well nigh to its utmost extent. With a gradually increasing number of Missionaries on our roll it may reasonably be expected that the average number of annuitants will not decrease. Three of the senior ones now on the list are paid in part from the Clergy Trust Fund, a source of revenue which will cease with their death. It will be seen therefore that the de- mand upon the Pension Fund in the future is likely to be considerably increased., even though the number of pen- sionaries be no greater than at present. Our hope is that we may not be obliged to reduce the amount allowable ta each. The amount paid in pensions last year was $2,943.32. We are pleased to be able to report that the Hon. E J. Price, ever a most liberal contributor ta this Fund, left it- by Bequest the sum of $2,000. . •, 19 WIDOWS AND orphans' FUND. The following Clergymen have completed their paymouts to this Fund, as roquired under By-Law XII ; — The Veii. Archdeacon Koe, theKev.Dr. Allnatt, Kev. Dr. Sciirth, ]{ev Dr. Fvles, Kevs. Canon Von lillaiid, Canon Richiudson, Canort Foster and Canon A-dams, the Rev. Messrs. Smith, Lyster, Kemp, Washer, Thompson, Hepburn, Boyle, Sykis, Ball, Blaylock, Richmond, Chapman, Harding, Stevt;ns, Wurtele, Petry, Riopel, Stuart, Walters, Faulconer, Fuller, Robertson, Husband, Adcock, Ualfour, Debbage, Murray and Rothera. The following are in course of completing their pay- ments, viz : — The Rev. Messrs. Bayne, Bishop. Brooke, Cur- ran, Dickson, Dutton, Fothergill, Hibbard, Horner. King, Lewis, Moore, Parrock, Prout, Scott, Whatham, Wilson and Wright. The number of annuitants last year remained the same as in 1898, viz: six widows and three children. The amount paid was 12,100.00. '"] , EDUCATION FUND. '. The following Schools received aid from the Church Society last year.

Each school has been visited by the (loverninont School Inspector and his rt>port corliUed as having been favourable. The Clergy express much grati- tude for the aid received from the Society, and assure us that without it their poor people would experience great difficulty in maintaining a school ; that, small as it is, the grant stimulates them to do what otherwise they jvould feel unable to do, and moreover, secures for the Parish a missionary handmaid in the person of a teacher, who must of necessity be a member of the Church, according to the terms of help. We desire to record our thankfulness to the Colonial and Continental Church Society for their generous grant of je^O in aid of this work. » • FUND FOE THE EDUCATION OF THE CHILDREN OF THE CLERGY. I i Nine grants were in force last year in aid of the worthy object supported by this Fund ; two of them, however, for the first half ot the year only. These two were released after midsummer, the one by the heroic and noble death (by drowning whilst saving another's life) of Mr. Henry Richmond, the son of the Hey. J. P. Richmond, of Gasp6 ; the other by the critical and protracted illness of the son of another Clergyman — both of these young men having been students of great promise at Bishop's College. This Fund has no invested capital, and for the measure of its good work depends entirely upon the voluntary offerings made from year to year in its behalf. In our last Report we made a special appeal in the interest of this Fund, its very existence having been jeopardized by the then recent death of its great benefactor and main sup- porter, Mr. Robert Hamilton. There was a fair response to this appeal, but it was not sufficient to provide the amount required. Fortunately, however, Mr. John Hamil- ton and Miss Hamilton had most generously made a spe- cial gift of $300 to enable the Society to tide over an antici- pated critical year. We hope that there will be a morQ liberal subscription to the Fund in the coming year. : » I • CHURCH DEPOSITORY.

It will be observed from the foregoing statement that the di.'^- bursements exceed the revenue of the year by s$55.50. This is in large measaro accounted for by the fact that a consig-n- ment of books, valued at $165, and paid for, arrived durinuf the last week of the year. On the whole the sales amount to about the same as in 1898. Amongst the grants made during the year, are to be in- cluded 200 Prayer Hooks and Hymn Books supplied lo Fev. Mr. Almond, Chaplain to the B'irst Canadian Coji- tingent sent to South Africa, for common use amongst the men. The local management under Mr. T. Moore conti- nues to give satisfaction. We deem it dne here to make reference to the death, which has recently occurred at the advanced age of eighty- four years, of Miss Jane Wood, for forty years the faithful keeper of the Church Depo;!iitory. B'our years ago, in recog- nition of her long and dtivoted service, the Society granted Miss Wood an annuity for the remainder of her life. LOCAL ENDOWMENTS. . . One by one, yet very slowly, our Parochial Endowments are reachiiij the figure ($3,600.00) at which, under the conditions of their Trust Deeds, their interest becomes 22 available. When, years ago, Ihese Trust Deeds were executed, the aforementioned amount was amply sufficient to yield a reventie of .|200 per annum. A decline since then of 2 per cent or more in interest obtainable has very seriously afTected not these Funds alone but all sources of revenue on which our Missionary work depends. It will be seen from the report of the Diocesan Board that every dollar of revenue from the Mission Fund, the Robert Hamilton Bequest, and the Bishop "Williams Me- morial Mission Fund, is already called into use ; that local Assessments, instead of increasing, are, on the whole, by reason of emigration from the Diocese, decreasing ; that the Grant, so long and generously extended to our Diocese by the Venerable S. P. G-., expired with the year 1899 ; and that new and promising fields of labour are offering which the Board does not feel warranted in more fully entering upon for lack of means. All these considerations make it the more urgent why every Local Endowment should, at the earliest date possible, be brought up to the revenue producing point. At the close of 1899 the Endowment Funds of Acton Vale, and Upper Durham and L'Avenir wore, by special gifts and subscriptions locally made in behalf of each, brought up to this gratifying condition, although the amount reooived for the latter did not roach the Treasurer's hands in time for acknowledgment in the accounts for the year. We have thought well to call attention to this fact, in order, at once, to congratulate these Missions, and to commend them for the laudable <'ffbrt made by them to secure this desirable object, and at the same time to suggest toother Missions, whose endowments are as yet unavailable, the desirability of making like efforts to attain the like end. When augmented only by its annual revenue, the capital grows very slowly If a permanent local committee were formed, entrusted with the task of collecting some- thing each year to be added to the capital of the Fund, the day of revenues would be hastened very materially, and a good missionary work accomplished. IN MEMORIAM. Evan John Price, Senator, of Wolfesfield, Quebec, entered into rest August 31st, 1899. It is impossible, in the brief space allowable here, to convey a just conception of the nobility and attractiveness * t 23 of the character of this great Churchman — now removed from the Church militant— impossible to estimate how much poorer in a spiritual sense we should have been but for the gift of his life and example, and poorer in a material sense, but for the countless and boundless gifts so unosten- tatiously bestowed by him upon the Church through long years. God alone knows what the total of such influence has been and will be. Personally devout and humble, innately kind hearted, sympathetic, and unassuming in manner, Mr. IVice was naturally held in aftectionate esteem by all who knew him. Mr. Price was not merely a great benefactor but a devoted son of the Church. To be a Churchman meant to him something of constant active consequence in the different regions of worship, service, thought, influence, the use of time, talent and money. The secret of his influence lay not merely in the number and measure of his gifts and his cheerful and gracious manner of giving, but in his bright, pure, high-minded Christian character and personality, itself traceable to the grace of Grod and of devoted Christian principles and practice.

Viewed, however, with legard to the iuture, and the increasing responsibilities of your Board in the extension of the Missionary work of the Diocese, it is far from justifying aay expectations of further expansion. We have no longer any reserve funds to fall back upon. During the past year we have drawn the interest on the Bishop Williams Memorial Fund as well as on the Robert Hamilton Bequest, sources of income which previously we have managed to do with- out. The close of 1899 has also seen the withdrawal of the block grant from the S. P. G., so that, with the exception of the special grant to Labrador, the Missionary work of the Diocese will no longer receive any aid from that generous Society, which has so liberally helped this Diocese for the ii j iii j y ■*,•■ ♦f 28 long period of a century and more, for the Missionary Boll of the S. P. Or. shows that there were Clergymen in Quebec under the Society's direction from the time of General Murray. It is therefore a matter for serious consideration to note that there has been so large a decrease in the income from the Mission Fund during 1899, from which we have re- ceived $2,359.84 less than during the previous year. This is doubtless to be accounted for in great measure by the decease of the two larges*, annual contributors to this Fund which the Diocese had, and to which reference is made in the Keport of the Central Board ; but the fact itself remains the same, and had the grant from the S. P. G. been withdrawn a year earlier, we should have had no balance in hand to show, although we have made use of all our reserve funds. But your Board believes that a con- siderable portion of this decrease in the Mission Fund is due to other causes, and that the need of supporting this Fund has not been generally urged upon the liberality of Church people, especially in the City of Quebec. The im- pression, too, may have been formed that the revenue from the two hitherto untouched funds would obviate the neces- sity of contributing as liberally as heretofore to the Mission Fund. If so, your Board would take leave to point out that this impression is not justified by the actual facts, and that generous offerings will still be needed in the future as in the past, now that the S. P. G. grant is entirely withdrawn, if the Diocesan Board is to carry out its work with unim- paired efficiency. There is another consideration which your Board regrets to be obliged to draw attention to. but which further em phasises the need of supporting the Mission Fund. In renewing the asst}S.sments with the various congregations every triennial period, it has always been the aim of your Board to secure such an increase as was ju.stified by the improved financial condition of the people and their en- hanced appreciation of the ministrations provided for them. It is acknowledged that eminent success — far beyond what was originally anticipated — has in the past attended the efforts of your Board in this direction, but we have now, it is to be feared, reached the climax, if indeed the tide has not already began to turn. The successive reassessments every three years have hitherto resulted in an increase, of course smaller on each occasion for a considerable time back, but for the first time in the history of the Diocesan Board, the present triennal term, which begins with the current year, shows that the assessments have fallen off by over $100. The numerous appeals for a reduction on the ground of subscriptions lost by the removal of subscribers from the different Missions, and in most cases from the Diocese, the Board, after careful enquiry, has been obliged to acquiesce in, either in whole or in part ; and the com- paratively few instances in which the congregations have complied with the request for an increase have not com- pensated for the reductions allowed. As to the condition and prospects of the various Missions in connection with the Diocesan Board, with the exception just noted, what was said a year ago, is equally true now, as is evidenced in the Reports of the Clergy, viz : — That the work which is being done is of a satisfactory nature, and that the patience and constancy with which our Missionaries are discharging the duties assigned them are producing in some measure the good results to be expected. As in some cases misapprehension seems to exist in the minds of the Clergy as to the manner in which these Re- ports are to be dealt with, it may be as well to say — with reference ot course to those which are prepared by the Missionaries of the Diocesan Board — that in the opinion of your Board these Reports are intended, in the first place, to convey such detailed information relating to the various Missions which it is desirable that your Board should have, to assist them in judging rightly of the work which is being carried on, and that, in the second place, should the Board deem it serviceable, in the interests of the cause they are entrusted with, to print these Reports for circula- tion among members of the Church, they are at liberty to do so, in such manner as they may think best — in part or in whole — to make a synopsis of a Report or to print an extract only ; in short, to deal with them just in the same way as the great Missionary Societies in England deal with the Reports of the Bishops or Missionaries who, from time to time, send accounts of their proceedings. It is with great regret that your Board has to announce the resignation of Mr. John Hamilton as Honorary Treas- 'tr sam •80 urer. The following resolution, adopted at a recent meet- ing, expresses the high value entertained of his services : — " h'esolved that the members of the Diocesan Koard, having heard with sincere regret the letter of Mr. John Hamilton announcing his resignation of the office of Honorary Treas- urer, desire to place on record their grateful appreciation of his very valuable services, extending over the long period of seventeen years, during which he has discharged the du- ties of this important position with such remarkable zeal and efficiency, to the great advantage of the Board and of the Diocese at large ; and to express to him their heartfelt gratitude and thankfulness for the same, together with the hope that although they can no longer have him as their Treasurer, they may reckon upon the benefit of his pre- sence and valuable counsel at the meetings of the Board for many years to come." Your Board has much pleasure in stating that the ser- vices of Mr. T. C Aylwin, Q.C., have been secured as Honorary Treasurer in succession to Mr. Hamilton. The following changes have taken place among the the Clergy during the past year : — The Rev. 0. E. Bishop has been appointed to the Mission of Scotistown, the Itev. H. A. Brooke having accepted the Rectory of Stanstead. The Rev. E. B. Husband has taken charge of the Mission of Dudswell, the Rev. E. K. Wilson having been appointed to the Parish of New Carlisle and Paspebiac. The Rev. W. J. Wayman was appointed to the new Mis- sion of Johnville, which includes Sandhill and Milbv. The Rev. A. "W. Button was appointed in the first in- stance to Way's Mills, Mr. Watham taking charge of Here- ford, and subsequently to the Mission of Peninsula, the Rev. N. M. Bayne being appointed to Way's Mills. On the retirement of the Venerable Archdeacon Roe, the Rev. E. A. W. King was appointed to Windsor Mills and Brompton, and the Rev. C. T. Lewis, of the Diocese of On- tario, was appointed to Melbourne. The retirement of the Venerable Archdeacon Roe from active duty after forty-seven years of faithful service in the Diocese, deserves more than a passing notice. For, "whether he is regarded as a Missionary in the country— as v; « 1 31 ' • Curate and afterwards Rector of an important City Parish — as Professor of Divinity at Bishop's College — as a loading light in the Synod and Church Society, or with reference to the important services ho has rendered in numberless ways for the good of the Church, and in which he was al- ways conceded a foremost part ; or whether we bear in mind the signal energy and ability with which he dis- charged special duties, often difficult and laborious, or whether we regard his scholarly and theological attain- ments, which have been so usefully applied, we cannot witness his retirement without a feeling of regret that the infirmities which advancing age brings should have ren- dered it inevitable, a feeling which, however, is united with the hope that the Archdeacon may be spared many years to enjoy his well earned rest, and to continue to ren- der such services to the Diocese as ho may feel able, and which we know he is willing to give. All which is respectfully submitted. A. A. Von Iffland, Secretary. A. H. Quebec, J 'resident. *j % 82 I ^•- i EEPORT OF THE LOED BISHOP FOR THE YEAR 1800, With pefepenue to Fundn entpusted to him for Various Pupposes. Under tho Will of the late lamented Senator Price the Biishop received from his Executors the helpful sutn of $•24,000, and one of the Executors, Mr. William Price, most handsomely took upon himself the payment of the heavy Succesision Duty (#2,400) upon the whole amount, so that the Bishop might receive without deduction the whole bequest. The sum of $10,000 was to be devoted to diocesan purposes at the lUshop's discretion ; he has consequently allotted half of this amount to the Mission Fund of the Church So- ciety to help to support certain Missions, in which Senator Price had for years taken i>pecial interest, and the other half the Bishop, with due knowledge of the Testator's wiishes, gave, under certain conditions, to a Fund to be call- ed the Cathedral Endowment Fund. Thus the Senator Price Bequest stands here on record as follows : (1) Quebec Cathedral Endowment Fund... $5,000.00 (2) Mission Fund of the Quebec Church Society.. 5,000.00 (8) Bishop Williams Memorial Fund 5,000.00 (4) Pension Fund of the Quebec Church Society. 2,000.00 (6) Endowment Fund of S. Michael's, Quebec... 2,000.00 (6) Bishop's College, Lennoxville 6,000.00 , Total $24,000.00 The Bishop has also during the year administered cer- tain other Funds, and has thus maintained ministrations at Hereford and Agnes, Lake Megantic, and additional ministrations on the Labrador and in the Magdalen Islands. Thus a sum of $1,085, which does not appear in the Church Society accounts, has been disbursed, and this sum was met by $926 raised by the people themselves, together v/ith a grant of $200 from the Diocese of Vermont and a gr«nt of •1>100 from the Mission Fund of our Church Society. An arrangement has been come to by which these Missions are in future to be administered like our other Missions, by the Bishop and the Diocesan Board. >■' ,' » ■* i ♦ I 88 Report of the 8t. Francis District Association of the Church Society. " /» * ♦ 4 ■ • * • Once more we have reason to thank God for the fair measure of success which has attended the labours of our Clergy in this District during the past year. It is a painful fact, however, which we have to face that our English-speaking people are not increasing, and in many of our Missions the losses by death and removal ex- ceed the number of those who come permanently to reside. We cannot, therefore, expect that our congregations should grow or that our financial returns should show much in- crease. But no one can read the reports of the Clergy, or hear them read, without being impressed with the evident earnestness and zeal with which they do their work, and with the tone of hopefulness which universally prevails. This air of hopefulness is not because of the great pro- gress which they are making, but because they feel that God is prospering them more than from their surroundings they could reasonably expect. The amount of money reported as raised in this Disstrict for all Church purposes this year is $29,905 56, and was given as follows : for Parochial objects, $25,288 62 ; for Diocesan objects, #2,518.27, and for Missionary work out- Mde the Diocese, $2,103 68. The Baptisms for the year were 322 ; the Confirmed were 257; the Marriages were 55, and the Burials were 169. The lack of increase in our English-speaking populai ion hinders also the growth of our Educational Institutions. Owing in great measure to the continued illness of the late Principal of Bishop's College, there are not so many Students in attendance this as last year ; but we know that owing to the competence of the teaching stall" the former standard of excellence in woriv has been maintained if not surpassed. "We all earnestly hope that God may so guide the minds of those to whom has been entrusted'the task of selecting a new Principal, that they may make choice of the right man. Bishop's College School is also prospenng, and it may be worth mentioning, that about one-third of the boys in at- tendance there are not members of the Church ol England. 8 ^! !■ I- it ! 84 Gompton Ladies' College goes on its quiet way and is doing good work. The new system of boavdius. so fnr, works well, and the improvement in the salety and com- fort of the building is marked since the installation oi the electric light. The Parish of Stanstead and Beebe Plain is now berved by one Clergyman instead of two, but the establishment of the new Mission of Milby, Johnville and Sand Hill has kept the number of working Clergy in the District the same. Albert Stevens, Secretary St. F. D. A. ACTON VALK. The Rev. L. C. Wurtele reports : — During the past year Sunday Services have been regu- larly kept up, morning and evening, at St. Mark's Church, Acton Vale, and in the afternoon at Danby or at West Wickham. These Services have all been attended as well as could have been expected, considering the condition and position of this Mission. Through the kindness of Mr. A. L. Eldridge new shades have been provided for the windows of St. Mark's Church. I am thankfi 1 also to be able to report that the Church is now lighted by electricity. The improvement thus effected is very great, and a great saving secured in labour and time. " Hope on, hope ever " was always the earnest and encouraging motto of the Cler- gyman of this Mission. The town of Acton has made great strides during the past year. A groat many new buildings have boen erect- ed, and some large industries are about to go into opera- tion ; the Or. T. R., too, have added materially to their works — the whole giving promise of a brighter future for the place ; yet all has not been brightness with us. We are deploring the loss of two of our faithful Church families — that of Mr. G. B. Wells, who has removed to Waterville, and that of Mr. C. E. Towle, who has gone to reside in Wa- terloo, liroman English community already very small the loss of even two families is a serious matter ; and this is especially so when they were amongst the most able and influential, and the most faithful supporters of the Church. We must trust to Providence to have these lossee^ made good to us. Baptism, 1; Marriage,!; Burials, 4. 85 FiNANCtAt, StATRMINT.

The Lord Bishop visited this Church on the third of De- cember, and confirmed two candidates, one of whom, a young married woman, was baptized immediat'^ly before confirmation ; the other was a man who had reached the allotted three score and ten years. It was a most impres- sive Service. The address before and the one after the Confirmation were full of that practical, earnest teaching, which His Lordship never fails to impart. St. Lawrence's, Barford. — Services were held regularly at this Church till November, when Dr. Ward and his family, who practically compose the whole congregation, moved to Montreal, since which time they have been suspended. The Kev. Gr. B. Ward, M.A., of the Diocese of Huron, whilst here on a visit, was kind enough to hold himself responsi- ble for a Service every Sunday as long as his holiday lasted . SI. Paul's, Stanhope. — This Congregation has suffered from removals, owing to the suspension of the lumber industry ; the few families left, however, have managed to pay their assessment. The ladies of the Gruild continue their faithful efforts in the direction of beautifying the interior of the Church. During the year the walls have been tastefully tinted with a chaste bordering ; the floor has been stained, the wood- work and seats varnished, and a new Altar Cloth and Dossal provided. B'urther improvements are contemplated, for which part of the funds is already available. Miss Casady, Miss Cameron and Miss Edith Damon, have each done their share towards keeping up the Sunday School ; the one last mentioned is now in charge, and through her efforts the sum of |8.50 was raised to help the work among the children. Our organists here have dis- charged their duties faithfully. Three adults have been baptized, one of whom was baptized by the Bishop, and, with five others, received " the Laying-on of hands " the same day. The combined Services, together with the catechetical addresses given by His Lord- ship, must have made a deep impression upon all. St. George's, Perri/boro\ — This Congregation has also been weakened by removals. The Services, however, on the f I I I m i l 88 whole, have been well attended. The addition of the new (.'hancel, furnished as it is with the necessary accessories for public worship, is a great improvement to the appear- ance and comfort of the Church in every way. On Thanksgiving Day there was a good attendance and a large number of communicants. The •'thank-offering "amounted to #12.84. The returns made by the Church Society Helpers is very satisfactory. Last, but not least, comes the Consecra- tion of the Chancel, December 2, at which Service four candidates were consecrated anew to God in Confirmation. After the Service, in response to Mr. Hobson's kind invita- tion, the members of the Congregation repaired to his com- modious new house, where they enjoyed an hour at lunch and in conversation with their chief Pastor. Next morning there was a Celebration of the Holy Communion at 7.30, at which forty were present and twenty-one communi- cated ; this was followed by the baptism of a little child. The following Clergymen have officiated in the Mission during the year: — Reverends Canon Foster, G. B. Ward, IV. M. Bayne and E. P. Lee, from Island Pond, Vt. It is needless to mention that their services were appreciated by all. To Canon Foster, who is always ready and willing to fill a gap, I am very much indebted. Taking the Mission as a whole, despite such drawbacks as have been alluded to, the Church seems to be holding her own, and one has reason to hope that her teaching is taking deeper root in the hearts of the people. May there be a still deeper awakening of slumbering and indifferent souls. Baptisms, 24 ; Confirmed, 12 ; Marriages, 3 ; Burials, 7. Financial Statemgnt. at h en s .

The Rev. Professor Wilkinson reports : — There are now the Missions of Moulton Hill and Haskell Hill. At each oC these places Services are held by Students of the College every Sunday during Term time and also during the Christmas vacation. The avoraue attendance at Moulton Hill during the past year has bi'eii twenty and at Ha.skell Hill fifteen. The Congregations at Moulton Hill have of late been showina: a slight increase. Both Congregations are reverent and becoming more appre- ciative of our Service ; they are anxious to have the Ser- vices continued. The student walks to Moulloii Hill and back, except in bad weather when the ConiL^avgatiou pro- vides a team — so, as a student is not paid, there is no ex- pense attached to this Mission. La^t Lent the childri'U collected 1105 for Missions. The people at Haskell have now begun to pay the ne- cessary expenses for teams, so the School has not since the beginning of the present academical year been asked to contribute. This is something to be grateful for, as it is good for the people, who will thus learn a lesson of self- reliance, and good for the School, w no will now try to pay off some of the deficit alluded to in last year's report This has already begun to be paid off, and when the payment is completed the School will doubtless b; ready to undertake 40 some fresh or resume some old work, for instance, the Belvidere Mission, which we have not forgotten. Sunday School was held at Haskell Hill from December 1898 to April 1899 — average attendance, 9. Milby, which I continued to take charge of till the 1st July last, has now passed our of my hands into those of the Rev. J. W. Wayman, B.A , who will no doubt report on it. The College, however, still maintains the old con- nection with Milby, by providing, at Mr. Wayman's request, for a Monthly Celebration of the Holy Communion ; this has been given since the beginning of the present term by the Rev. Professor Parrock. UlSHOP'S COLLEGE BROTHERHOOD OF READERS. (Kndorsecl by Professor Wilkinson, 'VViudcn.) Mr. C. W.

Harte writes : — j During the year just ended we are encouraged to think, that in many ways, the life of this Mission has shown a very healthy tone. Increased interests in Church work, more stable congregations, and larger contributions to Pa- rochial and Diocesan funds are all to be noted with thank- fulness. The Church property as a whole has been kept in good repair, and in St. Paul's Church, Cumberland Mills, in particular, substantial additions and improvements have been made, principal among which we may mention the purchase of a valuable Cathedral Model Bell Organ, and the renovation of the Chancel end of the Church. Our Schools at Cumberland Mills and Cranbou^ ue have, not- withstanding the peculiar difficulties met with in these lo- calities, been for the most part, kept in operation during the year, the former under the able mar.agement of Miss F. A. Annett, of Montreal, who also actf> as organist in St. Paul's Church ; and the latter presided over by Miss Ethel Patterson, of Leeds. Preparations are being made at Cran- bourne to erect a new school-house upon a site generously I 'i t i 42 donated by Mr. Michael Armstrong, one of oUr Patish^ ioners. In May and again in October we were privileged to re- ceive visits from the Bishop of the Diocese, to whom were presented on these occasions three several classes of candi- dates for " The Laying-on of Hands," numbering in all seventean. On the Bishop's second visit, acting under commission from the Bishop of Maine, he consecrated to the w^orship of Almighty God, Father, Son and Holy Ghost, our new Church at Deniiitown, Maine. In our work at Denistown w^e have been, again, and for the third year, ably assisted by Mr. Philip Callis, of the Brotherhood of Lay Readers of Bishop's College, Lennox- ville. We are encouraged to think that this w^ork may be placed during the coming year under the care of a resident Deacon, if not of a resident Priest. Baptisms, 8; Confirmed, 13; Eurial, 1.

The Rev. J. B. Debbage reports : — This year will long be remembered in this Municipality on account of the destructive fire which devastated St. Ray- % 48 !*■ » • mond in June last. I am thankful to say that none of our people suffered directly thereby. This Mission, though not strong as regards numbers and wealth, is geoofraphical- ly extensive. I go thirty miles to the West, thirteen to the North, and ten lo the East. Due South 1 have no call. I do not, however, visit the distant points on Sundays. On Sundays w^'*have morning and evening Services in the Church near my home, and an afternoon Service not more than five miles away. The morning Services in Church are well attended by old and young alike. In the evening we have a goodly number, but chiefly of the younger members A Sunday School is maintained during the summer. Three day schools arv3 in operation under effi- cient teachers. One of these teachers. Miss E. A. Allen, receives a grant from the Church Society. Our losses by death during the past year have been fewer than usual ; these included two of our aged members, one having at- tained to eighty-eight years. I mentioned in my last re- port that one of our members had collected money and purchased for the Parish a suitable hearse, which, though kept under the custody of the Church- Wardens, was tor the use of our Dissenting Brethren in common with our- selves. Under the direction of Mr. Thomas Sissons a neat building has been erected on the glebe for its safe-keeping. During the summer the fence around the grave-yard was renewed, money having been collected for the purpose by our People's Warden. The Rev. Richard Hewton, Rector of Upper Lachine, paid us a welcome visit during the sum- mer and most kindly preached for ns twice, much to the delight and edification of us all. Mr. Hewton's father, mo- ther and sister, long residents of Bourg Louis, have since removed from the Mission. Their, removal is a great loss to us. Baptisms, 5; Marriage, 1; Burials 4.

The Rev. C. B. Washer reports : — Si. Paul's. — Condition about the same as stated in last report. Congregation up to average, also Cojjimunions. Sunday School attendance not quite so good, partly owing to lack of sufficient number of teachers. Tnie Choir is weak, too, through removals and marriages. Twelve per- sons were confirmed in June, who immediately afterwards made their first Communion. The ladies have been work- ing hard for two years to earn money to reseat the Church. "We are hindered at present from beginning the work, but before these lines are public in the printed Report, I trust the members of the Guild will judge themselves amply re- warded for their labours in the placing of a series of com- fortable, solid and artistic benches. We are still financially crippled, from a want of systematic giving and collecting of dues to the Diocesan Mission Board. The Church- Wardens are now assisted by six sidesmen, who collect as- sessment in their several districts. When these gentlemen become habituated to the duties of their office and the peo- ple to give systematically, very much strain will be reliev- ed. Much improvement, however, has been already effected. St. John's. — Fortnightly Sunday Services maintained as usual, and Congregations average. No Confirmations here for many years. Neighbourhood to north and west of Church very barren, —the evil effect of schism, — to provide candidates; and those of our people to south and east, when ready, are confirmed at St. Paul's. We have early morning Communions here, with minimum attendance of communicants. It was remarked '*;i our last report how much a few determined women could do; and now we have to record that the ladies of this section have done bet- ter than ever. Mr. Fredk Bennett, a skilled workman of much experience in the United States, offered to do the whole of the repairing of the interior of the Church gra- tuitously, if the materials were supplied. The ladies rose tc .00 ; Mission Fund, $80. General expenses, $234.63.— Total,449.63. CAP A L'AIGLE. (Summer Resort.) The Rev. Professor Alliiatt, Chaplain, reports: — The Congregation at this Summer Chaplaincy has been steadily increasing for the past four or five years, until it has become necessary to enlarge the Church for the second time. The Church building and Chaplain's house have been for several years past in process of gradual develop. .* 4T ment from their original condition of mere sheds, tho one a blacksmith's shop, the other a stable of very small propor- tion. Through the efforts of the Congregation the Church has been made a decent and seemly building, and suitably fitted up ; though it has been found necessary to increase its seating capacity by at least one-half, a work which it is hoped will be completed in time for next season. It will then accommodate about 180 persons. The Chaplaincy house is now fairly commodious and comfortable ; though, owing to its piece-meal formation, it is rather irregular in its structure. The buildings are not the property of the Church, the donor, Mrs Griffith, of Quebec, having vested them in trustees, three in number ; one, Mr. C. P. Champion, ap- pointed by herself, the others elected by the Congregation, all to hold office for life, or till resignation. The Services are as follows : — Celebrations — Early on all Sundays and Holy days ; after Mattins, on Sundays twice a inonth. Mattins, on Sundays, 11 a.m. ; daily, 9.15 a.m. Evensong, on Sundays, 7.15 p.m. Sunday School, conducted by Miss Johnson, on Sunday afternoon.' The Chaplain has been trying to introduce the practice of collecting for Diocesan Funds, not an easy matter, the visitors being members of various Dioceses, and having their own funds to maintain ; those from the Quebec Dio- cese having other opportunities for making their contribu- tions. A beginning was made, however, last summer, with the result that $12 are now offered for the Greneral Fund of the Church Society. Financial Statement.

Lyster, Rural Dean, reports : — Apart from the painting of St. James' Church, which has at length been accomplished, very little, worthy of special mention, has occurred in the Mission during the past year, I am thankful to say my health has been sufficiently 48 good to enablo me to keep all onpajroments with the usual rogiilarity. When, as has occasionally happened, stormy weather or bad roads have hindered me from reaching Perc5, my good friend and Lay- Reader, Sheriff" Tuzo, has held Services, which were well attended by those people who live sufficiently near the Church. On such occasions, our organist, Mr. E. Tuzo, has invariably assisted, thus rendering the Services bright and cheerful I much regret to report that our Lay- Reader at Cape Cove, Mr. Gaudin, has not been very w^ell for some time past. When his health permitted, he always most kindly and cheerfully rendered assistance, for which I feel very grateful. We still cherish hopes of Mr. Gaudin's ultimate recovery. To our organist. Miss Suddard, who is a very effective and tasteful musician, our thanks are due; she rarely allows ordinary hindrances to keep her from Church. 1 wish to acknowledge very thankfully the services rendered by all our Lay Helpers, including, of course, the Lady Collectors. It is a pity to be obliged once more to refer to the con- tinued exodus of our young people from the place, in order to seek winter work^elsewhere. This weakens us financial- ly, as well as in other respects, and renders the collection of the necessary Church expenses more difficult than l*have ever before known it to be. The willing mind of the people, however, is amply proved by the accompanying financial statement. 1 am very much mistaken if the average contribution per family ($19.00) is not larger than in any other country Mission in the Diocese. I record with much sorrow the very sudden death of Mr. James Baker, which took place on the last day of Septem- ber. Mr. Baker was on board the " Admiral" on his way home from Paspebiac, when he was struck down by apo- plexy, and from this attack he never rallied He had been our Treasurer for a number of years and was always kind and obliging. Dilatory payments never made any differ- ence in the punctuality of his remittances to the Diocesan Board. Mr. Baker was a staunch Churchman ; we have all missed him a good deal. I may mention that in June I resigned the position of In- spector of Schools, as my work in the parish had become quite sufficient for me, my health not being robust. As I naturally feel an interest in the schools, which I have been visiting for twenty-five years, I am thankful that a gentle- man, who is in every respect capable as well as energetic, . ^, 40 »?* f. I ♦> «». has been appointed to tho vacant Inspectorate. Our two schools, generously aidod by the Churrh Society, have been in t^onhtant and siicct'ssful operation throughout the year. Without the grant it would be impossible to keep both of them open. The teachers have, I think, given general sa- tisfaction. Baptisms, 13 ; Marriages, 2 ; Burials, 4. Financial Statkmbnt.

I ; The Rev. Canon Foster reports : — * I am happy to be able to report that the regular Sunday and other Services in St. Stephen's and Christ Church have been kept up with unfailing regu-larity, as in by-gone days. Mr. a. F. C. Caffin, B.A., of Bishop's College Brotherhood of Readers, kindly volunteered to help me in the Sunday Services from the time Mr. Wayman was ordained until the month of September last. His services were most ac- ceptable to all my people, and they all expressed their deep sorrow when he left for England. Mr Ernest Roy, B.A., has taken Mr. Callin's place since the first of October last, and his services both in the Churches and Sunday Schools of the Parish are duly appreciated. The Sunday School at Christ Church has been re-organized, with a competent staff of teachers. Teaching and Catechizing are regularly kept up for an hour every Sunday aflernoor^ in both \m 60 schools, Mr. Roy taking one and I the other. If this sys- tem of teaching our young people can be vigorously kept up, I am quite sure the greatest possible benefit will be de- rived from it. The Ladies' Guild of St. Stephen's Church has been re- organized, and the members are making strenuous efforts to build a suitable Parish Hall, where all our people can meet for work, and our children can be taught, thus avoiding that unseemly irreverence in the House of God, which is certain to crop up frequently when the Sunday School work of the Parish is carried on in the Church. To- wards the erection and furnishing of the hall the ladies have 1625.00 in hand, and they hope to increase that amount by two hundred before the work is commenced in the spring. The meetings of the Coaticook Branch of the Woman's Auxiliary have been held regularly throughout the year, with a slight increase in the average attendance. Several new members have joined, and although there are still some " silent partners," there are others whose interest in the work is both real and practical, and lor them we are thank- ful. "Would there w^ere more of them. We are not in a position to give much money ; but we can and do give our work and our prayers, and the work of our hands. A bar- rel has been despatched to St. Barnabas' Home as usual, the contents of which are valued at about $45. We have no special pledges, but collect for the extra cent-a-month fund.

The Rev. G-. H. Parker reports : — The Services have been kept up during the year without interruption During the month of July the Rector took charge of the Church at Cacouna, his place being filled on the Sundays by Mr. Aytoun, of Bishop's College. The Sunday School and Children's Guild hav 3 heen carried on as usual, and recently the latter sent |24.73 to the Bishop of Algoma, the result of their work. The thanks ol the Parish are due and are heartily given to the Ladies for their self-denying labour and Annual Sale— a great help to the Parish. The Church has been painted on the outside, and needed repairs done during the year. It has also been much im- proved by the generosity of Mr. and Mrs. H. Dudley Smith, who have presented us with handsome brass stand- ards for the Altar Rail and had the electric light installed. To them we offer our heartiest thanks. In the month of June the Bishop visited the Parish and confirmed twenty-three candidates. The Service was most interesting and impressive. Our Annual Harvest Thanksgiving was unusually bright and attractive, thanks to the Choir ol Bishop's College. The Archdeacon was the preacher, and he gave us a stir- ring and instructive sermon. After the Service there was a large Parish gathering in the Hall of the new Academy. Baptisms, 6 ; Confirmed, 23 ; Marriage, 1 ; Burial, 1. Financial Statkmbnt.

The Rev. A. H. Robertson reports: — A very important event in the history of this Parish took place on July 1st, when the two flourishing stations of Sandhill and Johnville were, along with Milby, formed 52 i: into a new Mission, and the Eev. John "W. "Wayman was placed in charge of the same. There is every reason to believe that the newly formed Mission will grow into a strong Parish. It begins with an assessment of $300 per annum, cheerfully and promptly met, and the good effect of a resident Clergyman is already seen in larger Congregations and a quickening of spiritual life. This is the second Mission which has sprung from Cookshire Parish diiring the last twelve years, 'he present Rector of Cookshire having begun his work in the Ministry as the first Incumbent of Newport, which was set off from Cook- shire in the time of Rev. Arthur H. Judge. Seeing that the fisrt Incumbent of Cookshire, the Rev. Jonathan Taylor, was ordained about 1817, and extended his ministrations over the whole extent of what now comprises the Rural Deanery of Cookshire, this Parish Church may well claim to be the mother Church of the district, which now comprises nine Parishes or Missions. The work of the Parish has gone on quietly and steadily daring the year. The Lord Bishop gave us an inspiring visit on Sunday, June 11th, when twelve young people were confirmed. Following out his Lordship's suggestion in his Charge at the previous Synod, we had for each can- didate confirmed a witness or Grod-parent of his or her con- firmation. The good result of this was seen at the early Celebration on the following Sunday, when every one of the newly confirmed, accompanied by their God-parents, came to'the Holy Feast, and the average of attendance since has been very good ; a quiet word to the God-parent sometimes being more effectual than speaking direct to the young communicant.

The Rev. W. A. Adcock reports :— ; ' ?; During the past year everything here has been in a state of transition, w^hich after all is what must be expected in such a Mission as this. Still, this makes the work unsa- tisfactory and renders it difficult to keep the C^hurch machinery in working order. But there is a bright side to the Church's work and the Clergyman must always look in that direction. To commence with things spiritual, I lear we lack much. I am constantly bringing this matter before our people, the deepening of the spiritual life. I hope our people are beginning to realize what it means and the sacrifice it requires. I believe there are hoptdul signs, yet it is indeed a hard struggle with many of our people who have to work on Sundays in the mills, where little or no regard is held for the day of rest. However, I do notice -»»-«W|BBJU, . ilVimil 60 tJloro interest in Church life «jeii«»vally, a dooper interest in things spiritual, a s^roatev desire to do .something lor the Master. The congregation is holding its own well in spite oi'its vicissitudes. The Sunday School is prosperous, the attendance at Church is good, the responding excellent. There have been several red-letter days during the year, when the Church proved lar too small to accommodate those who would iind a place. The principal work of the year has been the restoring oi" the Church, which had be- come dilapidated, nothing having been spent upon it since its erection. The congregation well supported me in this undertaking and contributed the sum of #440.00, a sum very creditable considering their circumstances. The work undertaken has proved very .satisfactory and pleasing to almost everyone. The exterior of the Church has been painted and general work done on the tower. The interior has undergone considerable change, the seats altered and painted, walls and ceiling tinted, new windows added of Cathedral rolled glass, chancel raised to three steps, two vestries added, also screen separating chancel from nave, and other minor alterations. The Parsonage has been painted, stable and barn clapboarded, ice-house added, kitchen reshingled, work done inside of Parsonage, and general work done on premises ; the whole co.st being 1580.00. The sum of $480.00 has been provided, leaving a balance of $100.00 to be rai-sed. The work is not yet com- pleted. The roof ol the Church must soon be reshingled, a horse-shed has been a long felt want, and the Parsonage needs to be papered, all which I). V. will be done next year. The Ladies' Guild is working with that end in view, and the congregation has promised further assistance. 1 beg to extend my warmest thanks to the Ladies' Guild for their generous help ; to the Sunday School teachers and our faithful organist, Miss Cowling, for their devotedness; and to the Church-Wardens, lor their ever ready assistance. The Lord Bishop visited the Mi.ssion in June last and con- firmed nine persons, all of whom are communicants. At Ascot there is little to report, save that the congrega- tion, for zeal and devotedness to their Church, cannot well be surpassed. Our numbers are few and becoming fewer every year, the regular attendance at Church is only from 20 to 80, almost all having to drive long distances. Owing to paucity of numbers it is becoming a serious matter to finance the Church. During the past year some conspi- 61 cuous gaps have been made in our midst owing to re- movals. Much intori'st has bt'cn manifested in securini? atid laying out a new grave-yard, which has been enclosed with a neat fence. The Church here needs repairs and some general work needs to be done. I trust before long we may be in a position to have it attended to. Baptisms, 5 ; Confirmed, 9; Burials, 6. FiSANCIAI- STATKMKNT. EXTRA-DI()CE8AN: Angus. Ascot.

Wayman reports : — 1 began my work here on July 1st, 1809. The Mission is a new one and comprises the stations of Johnville. tSandhill and Milby. Johnville and Sandhill were connected formerly with the Parish of Cookshire ; Milby has for many years been under the care of Professor "Wilkin- son, of Bishop's College. I consider that the prospects are most encouraging. T.liere is much work to be done and the field is a large one. At Johnville, unfortunately, we have no Church build- ing. The interior of the Union Hall, where we hold our Services, is however l>ecoming quite ('hurch like in ap- pearance. Owing to the kindness of the Ladies of St. Matthew's Guild we have now a beautiful set of Altar Linea, H 62 and T hope that before long we will also be famished with Communion J 'late. The congregation here averages about sixty-live, and the Services are bright and hearty. The Harvest Festival was a great success. The Uev. Dr. Scarth preached on this occasion, and I was further assisted by the Itector of Cookshire, and Rev. Mr. Lewis, Incum- bent of Melbourne. At Sandhill the congregation is not quite so large, indeed it is not ati large as it should be. There are here, however, several vt'ry dovoted Church families, the members of which rarely absent themselves from Services. Here, too, the Harvest Festival was very enjoyable. An appropriate sermon was preached by the Kev. Mr. Lewis and the Service was followed by a supper and entertainment. Much credit is due to Prof. Wilkinson for his work at Milby. The congregation here, though small, is very devout. The people have been well grounded in Church principh's, and the warm and intelligent interest which they display in religious matters makes it a pleasure to minister to them. At all three statiojis the Ladies' Guilds are doing excel- lent work. My best thanks are due to all my helpers, espe- cially to the Church-Wardens, through whose exertions the assessments have been punctually met. Baptisms, 7 ; Marriage, 1 ; Burials, 4.

The Rev. Gr. G. NicoUs reports : — There havt^ been no changes in the Serviceu here uince I sent in my last report. The attendance at Fitch Bay is generally good ; while at Georgeville it (luctuatos, and the same is true of the Bad ilder S«hool-I louse. I have as^ain the pleasant (.isk of acknowledging the in- valuable help derived from Dr. Todd's kindness as Lay Reader, and am glad to stiy that one of the 'Congregations showed in a Hubstantial way. last Ch^ itstraab, their appre- ciation of his services. There has been nothinj»' out of the way or startling in the history ol the Mission durfi.f.; the year, b .i it is hoped and believed that everything has progressed satisfactorily, if quietly. Ihere were clouds on the horizon, from a financial point of view, at Cxeor^eville in the spring and early summer ; but with the arrival of the visitors there was an improvement, and with Iheir co-operation — w liich was kind and whole- souled to a degree — the shadows soon dispersed. They worked most heartily, in conjunction with the Women's and Children's Guilds, which deserve their share of credit. The thanks of the congregations are due to the volun- tary organists — Miss Wright, at Georgeville, and Mr. C. C. Rand, at Fitch Biv — for their services. The Harvest Festivals— on Michaelmas Day in George- ville and on October 12th in Fitch Pay — were bright, and happy Services , very excellent sermons being -preached, at the one by the Rev. R. A. Tarrock, M.A., Professor of Clas- sics at Bishop's College, and at the other by the Rev. H, A. Brooke, M. A., Rector of Stanstead. ^Vithin the past few weeks improvements have been effected at both Churches. At Georgeville such parts of the old fence round the Church-yard as were worth it have been restored to the perpi'iidicular ; while many yards of neat new picket-fencing have been added, and the whole yard is now enclosed in a sightly manner, instead of look- ing neglected and uncared-ior. When all is painted in the Spring the eflect will be further improved, and very pleas- ing and satisfactory. The funds for this work were provid- ed, in about equal parts, by individual subscriptions, and by the Children's Guilds — which also paid for the re-paint- ing of the Church floor early in the summer. r v K S ^^ -^ XT. 64 I At Fitch Bay a new foundation has been put under the eutire southern half of the Church, the ground outside graded, a new cellar door and windows put in, clapboard- ing done, the drainage improved, and preparations made for building a horse-shed in rear of the Church next year. All this work was voluntarily done by the men of the con- gregation, who turned out to it in a way that was very gratifying to see. Baptisms : adults, 2 ; children, 7 ; Marriage, 1 ; Burials, 8.

The Rev. Gr. F. Hibbard reports : — I am happy to be able to report another year of general prosperity among our people, a light, but encouraging in- crease in the number of communicants and some little im- provements made of a material character. Hemison has adopted the envelope system, and by this means we hope that our surplus at Easter will enable us to put some improvements upon the Church, The Congrega- *' 65 tion at "West Frampton have purchased a new " Dominion" Chapel organ. It was in place for the Christmas Services, and supplies a long felt want. The people deserve much credit for their efforts to raise what was for them a large sum. The offertories are not so large as they should bf», but Hemison, though it lags in this respect, shows up well in the house-to-house collection for the Church Society Funds. The Lenten Services were well attended in both sides of the Mission, and the Advent Services as well in West Frampton. We were all pleased and helped by the Bishop's visit in May ; he was kind enough to spendWhitsunday and Whitsun Monday with us. In September the Deanery of Levis met in this Mission, and in spite of the cold weather we had enthusiastic meetings, which we all enjoved, the visiting Clergy very kindly doing all they could to make the meetings interesting and instructive to the people, who on their part gladly entertained their welcome visitors. The Rural Dean, the Rev. I. M. Thompson, of Levis, preach- ed a splendidly practical sermon, and we hope to see him among us again before the present year is out. Many of our people persistently overcome all the diffi- culties of winter roads and weather and are most regular in their attendance at Divine Service, but I regret that this religious fervour is far from general, and a greater effort to be present at public worship, in spite of bad weather, should be made. I add with pleasure that we have been the happy recipients of a great deal of kindness from the warm-hearted people, a^ong whom our lot has fortunately been cast, while the general willingness of all to help one another creates a good-will that is most pleasant to see. Our Churches are in need of repairs and improvements, and I trust everyone in the Mission will join in the efforts to see these completed. Baptisms, 7 ; Confirmed, 15 : Marriages, 4 ; Burials, 12.

The Rev. J. P. Hichmond reports : — Services have been held regularly, except in the month of June, when I was detained for one Sunday after the meeting of Synod on business pertaining to the Mission The Parsonage, together with its outbuildings, is com- pleted, and attention is now being paid to supply another great want, namely, some building which can be used as a Parish Hall. The Village does not possess a public build- ing suitable for social entertainments ; and to clean out and fit up a store for such purpose involves a great deal of work. The Ladies of the Guild have taken the matter in hand with the consent of the Vestry, and have acquired a site, and have under construction a building sixty feet long by twenty-six feet wide with a basement. In this small congregation there have been five deaths during the year. The births exceed the deaths by but one. 8i. James' Congregation. — Owing to the separation of York from Gaspe South the congregation is smaller, and the Church- Wardens find it hard to meet current expenses, these being the same as when the congregation was not divided. This congregation has also lost two communi- cants by death, the one, an aged Christian ; the other, for years an invalid, though in the prime of life — both teaching by example that the way to eternal life is to suffer pa- tiently. 67 For the first time in miny years, there is winter work for everyone who wishes for employment. The people on the North- West Arm have the benefit of increased lum- bering operations On the South-West the Petroleum Works, whether ultimately they will prove a success, or the reverse', are at present giving a large amount of employment.

I The Rev. Albert Stevens reports : — This has been a year of uneventful work. The Service.^ have been kept up at the four stations as usual : Morning Service on Sundays and Chief Festivals in St. James' Church, and Evening Service every Sunday in the Union Church, Massawippi, with Afternoon Service alternately at Ayer's Flat and at the McConncll School-House. St. James' Chunh has received the gift of a new Altar Cloth from the Kiiburn Sisters, and a new carpet for the Sanctuary from Miss Weston, and the Hector received two beautiful stoles from Mrs. Huntington Wright. These gifts are mu«.^h appreciated. An ornamental iron fence has been put in front of the grave-yard at a cost of $100. The new furnace which was put in the Church last year works very well, and there is no difficulty in keeping the building comfortable in the coldest weather. I i^The Bishop confirmed seven persons here last J une, and they have all become regular communicants. ■tea mmtttm ■■MM 68 e We have a very active Ladies' Guild, which is helpful in all good works. The ladies are now engaged in raising money to improve the appearance of the interior of the Church. At Massawippi I notice a more regular attendance, and the choir has been helped by Mrs. Lloyd, who has most kindly acted as organist. She deserves great credit for her faithfulness in atte'> ding the Services in all kinds of weath- er and for her persevering diligence in keeping up the choir practices. In addition to this she has acted as collec- tor for the Church Society. At Ayer's Flat and at the McConnell School-House the attendance has not been as good as it might have been. These places serve as centres in which our scattered people in these neighbourhoods may keep up their connection with the Church ; and they may in time grow to more en- couraging proportions. I regard them as missionary ground, and the growth must necessarily be slow. I have from time to time evidences that our Services in these places are not without their good effects, not only upon our own people but upon strangers who occasionally come. Though, perhaps, not so immediately perceptible as the re- sults of a non-liturgical Service, yet the continual offer- ing of our Morning and Evening Prayer does in time im- press and edify those who attend and take part in them. I would like to take this opportunity of expressing my gratitude for the many acts of kindnoss which I have re- ceived from my people, and especially for their sympathy during the illness in my family.

The Rev. A. E. Whatham reports: — The Mission of Hereford comprises the Districts of Hall and I .oach Streams in the Diocese of Quebec, the Villages of Beecher Falls, Canaan and Averil in Vermont, and West Stewartstown and Colebrook in New Hampshire. I have also been asked to commence work at North Strat- ford in the latter State. From this it will be seen that a very large part of my Mission is within the borders of the United States. Nearly all the members, however, at the different stations are our own Canadian Church members, who, obliged to live across the Line for business purposes, would be entirely without the Church's ministrations if this work were not undertaken by a priest of our own Dio- cese. Hereford. — On the fourteenth of November I took advan- tage of the presence of the members of our Rural Deanery, which met at Canaan, to hold a Missionary meeting at All Saints' Church, Hereford. Within the Church was a densely packed congregation, who not only took part in the Service, but listened with rapt attention to the two ex- cellent addresses given by Mr. Robertson and Mr. Moore. But the people of Hereford, while numerous, are desperate- ly poor. They are asked to contribute but $50 per annum to the assessment, and this is practically about all they are able to raise. When, therefore, I am able to report that they!^ave painted theii Church and rebuilt the fence which encloses an extensive burial-ground at a cost of somewhat over $60, the burden shouldered by them may be imagined. In fair weather the congregation here numbers about seventy souls, some of whom come four and five miles to Church. And here I cannot refrain from alluding to the mother of the District, G-rannie Howe, an old lady seventy-six years of age, who yet walks from the top of Hereford Hill, a distance of eight miles (four either way,) nearly every Sunday in or- der to attend Church. Blow high or low, rain or fine, she and old Mrs. Boltor, mother excellent member, may be seen slowly wending their steps towards the House of G-od. I have just organized a Ladies' Guild here. HuUh Stream. — Here is perhaps one of the prettiest little Churches in the Diocese ; and yet it is forced to remain closed all the year round, there being now no congregation to attend it. It was erected largely through the liberality ■MMHi k t 1 !^ 70 of the late Mr. Bean, at one lime a largo landowner and employer of labour in this District. Mr. Bean's death was followed by the removal of many and the advent of another religious sentiment. Beecher Falls. — Here w^e have five families of Church people, and several others who are friendly towards the Church. West Stewartslown.—Onr congregation here, while sel- dom numbering less than forty, sometimes reaches close to a hundred. Still our active members are few and poor and have all they can do to raise |50 a year for their assessment, and |44 for the use of Church Hall and electric lights. We have here a zealous Ladies' Guild. Canaan. — This is a pretty village of some six hundred inhabitants, including several Church families. Following the example of my predece so^', I have chosen this place as the centre of my work. A . the Mission is unprovided with a Parsonage, my predecessor, unable to do better, purchased a small house in which to reside. This 1 took olf his hands and am paying for it by instalments. I could not otherwise better provide for my requirements. Averil. — A disastrous fire a few weeks ago was the means of driving away from this place many of our mem- bers. Poor before, the congregation is now somewhat financially embarrassed. There is,how^ever, much work to be done, and the Church's ministrations are much appre- ciated by those who reside hereabouts. I have a Service here on alternate Sunday afternoons, Mr. Sweet, our Lay- Reader, kindly taking the Service on the other Sundays of the month. Colebrooke.— I am happy to say that there is observable here a marked quickening of Church life and religious zeal. Something in excess of the entire year's assessment has al- ready been collected. We have purchased an organ and organized a choir, and now have in contemplation the pur- chasing of ground, upon which to (»rect a small Chapel. It is my experience that without some place of worship, Church-like in character and equipment, it is difficult to in- stil into people that reverence in worship and love of Christian principles so essential to spiritual growth. North Stratford. — This place, like the former, is in the northern part of the Diocese of New Hampshire. • I have found here a goodly number of Canadian Church families, tE. n and hftve promised to give them a fortnightly Evening Service. From the foregoing account it will be seen that the work which this Mission offers is far from an easy one. Hitherto I have enjoyed the kind good-will of the people generally. I can but hope for a continuance of this, and pray for a con- tinuance also of God's help and blessing, so graciously be- stowed in the past.

INVERNESS. The Rev. H. A. Dickson reports : — The work in this Mission has been carried on during the past year without any marked deviation from the course pursued in the past. The Services have with few excep- tions been held in the three Churches regularly every week Congregations at both St. Stephen's and Campbell's Corner have suffered heavy losses by removals, which have affected both the attendance at our Ser rices, and our financial strength. At Adderley we have held our own and have made a successful efibrt to meet our financial obligations. The Sunday Schools at the three centres have been much better than at any time before, since I came to the Mission, under the superintendence of Mr. John Mac- kenzie, Mrs. Alex. Graham and Mrs. Dickson, who with their assistants have taken great interest in their work. ttmmm 1 u The Parsonage, which had been allowed to got sdmeWhit out of order, has received some repairs during the year, $30 dollars having been raised for that purpose, and pre- parations are being made to make other necessary improve- ments as soon as weather permits.

Faulconer reports : — Trinily Church, Upper Ireland. — All the regular as well as the special Services have been extremely well attended during the past year, and our communicants have increas- ed both in numbers and in regular attendance. The Sun- day Schools have on the whole been well attended and much valuable teaching given therein. The Bishop visited the Parish in June last and confirmed eighteen candidates, two of whom were adults. The Woman's Guild has done much valuable work both in support of the Church and also in contributing $150 towards the proposed new Church to be erected to commemorate the commencement of the Twentieth Century. Towards this good work the whole congregation have contributed the handsome sum of one thousand dollars. This sum, together with contribu- tions from friends in England and Quebec, make a grand total of sixteen hundred dollars. The amount needed to complete the Church will be about $2,700, << % f • » * » « «l' 7d The Woman's Auxiliary is doing steady and good work both at Maple Grovoaiid Lower Ireland. Christ's Church, Lower Ireland. — The Sunday and special Services here thror .hout the year have been extremrly well attended, and the iSiaiday School fairly well. Much aid has been rendered by ti-e Woman's Guild. Mr. Johnson, who acted as our Delegate to the Synod for many years, a most generous supporter of the Church, has, I regret to say, removed I'rom the Parish. In Mr. and Mrs. Johnson we lose two of our most faithful and enthu- siastic Church workers. Such gaps are very hard to till. I am glad to say that some of onr most faith Cul members have increased their contributions towards the assessment, so that the great loss of ninety dollars a year, due to Mr Johnson's departure, may in some measure be met. The Church has been clapboarded anew and will be painted early next spring. The estimated cost is $150. Death has taken away one of our truest Church members and supporters in the person of Mr. Georg-.' Elliott, who was the victim of a sad accident. He was a devout man and much beloved. St. Peter's Church, Black Lake. — We have very few fami- lies here now. Business prospects looked a little brighter during the summer, but it w^as only temporary. Our Ser- vices have been well attended. The assessment has been well paid up, though it costs the few families a much greater effort than in former years. St. Johns Church, Thelford Mines. — The Services have b.ien kept up here every Sunday, and on the whole the at- tendance has been good. Mr. Tannar, my enthusiastic Lay- Reader, has rendered very efficient services here, and these have been much appreciated. As in former years we are greatly indebted here to the generous help of Mr. and Mrs. A. S. Johnson, and to the active interest which they take in the Mission. St. Mark's Church, Kinnear's Mills. — The regular Services have been well attended. The congregation have much appreciated the work of Mr. Tannar, and have themselves been stimulated to greater religious earnestness and activi- ty by the sympathy and zeal which he has manifested. The chief event of the year has been the building and completion, free of debt, of a beautiful little Church. The congregation did admirably in raising over $300 towards 74 this object. We have to thank tho SP.C K. for $100 ; the Church fc!ociety for $100, and many kind friends in Quebec and elsewhere for generous subscriptions. Tiie new Church was consecrated by the Lord Bishop of Quebec on St. An- drew's Day, when the Church was crowded to the doors. "We had a very happy Service, and at the Celebration of the Holy Communion forty-two communicated. There were four Clergy present assisting at the consecration. In conclusion I desire to thank most heartily all our ('hurch- Wardens, Organists, Teachers, Church Society Helpers and other Church workers for their willing and most helpful co-operation with me in all my work. Reviewing the work as a whole, I have much cause for deep thankfulness to our Heavenly Father, who has cer- tainly followed and sustained us by His blessing through- out the Parish both in our trials and soi rows, as well as in our prosperity and joy. To Him be all the glory. Baptisms, 19; Confirmed, 18 ; Marriages, 4 ; Burials, 11.

The Rov. James S. Syk('8 r«4)orts: — Steadily, quiotly, and improviiiglv, thu work of the Church has been done in Kinjjfst'y durinj? tho year just past. Services well maintained. Atiendance regularly good. Holy C'ommunion appreciated. Otfertories encour- aging. House-to-house collections intreasingly large. These items, 1 believe, fairly represent the sfoady growth, quiet consistency and advancement in the spiritual life of our congregations. On May 2yth we had a cheering visit from our Bishop, accompanied by Rural Dean Hepburn, for a Confirma- tion at Denison's Mills, when eight persons were confirm- ed, four of whom were adults. At my suggestion the Church-Wardens agreed to give the ollertory on that occa- sion to the Robert Hamilton Memorial Fund. No previous notice of this offertory (|i2.38) having been given, ac- counts for its smallness. The other subscriptions to this fund arc : for Sydenham Place, $47.60 ; Denison's Mills, $22.13; Spooner Pond, #12, making a total of #81.6-.', of which 148.13 has been paid as this year's instalment. With offertory, full total 184.01. While on the subject of house- to-house collections, I would call attention to the fact that our collectors in the three stations have secured for the Church Society the sum of $51.92. This, I think, with the efforts for the Robert Hamilton Memorial, is a sufficient answer to the suspicion that the Incumbent of Kingsey is in the habit of putting in the rosy tints with a white- wash brush. All our collectors are good and efficient. By marriage, removal and death our number is constant- ly decreasing. Decrease by marriage is explained by the fact that enterprising bachelors from outside our borders come in and takeaway with them all ofKingscy's beautiful and fair daughters. Among- them two more of our organ- ists have been captured. I have always thought that there was some subtle connection between music and matrimo- ny. The following illustrates my thought :—" There is a curious custom at Florence in connection with the common locust. On the feast of the Ascension the young women hunt for locusts in the gardens known as the Cascine, and every girl who is so favoured as to find a fiddler — that is, a male, believes tha* she will be married within the year. The unhappy musician is placed in a little cage and kept until he dies. If* Death has taken ftom us many of our old friends this year. Mrs. Hamilton, a widow, aged 83 years, died sud- denlyi and before she was buried, the news came to us of the terrible and startling? accident to Mr. Thos. 8. Evans, a fespected member of the congregation at Spooner Pond, run down while attempting to (.toss the track before an express train on the Grand Trunk Railway. Two short hours after his leaving home strong and vigorous, his wife was shocked by the intelligence, that no more should she wel- come alive the partner of her joys and sorrows. You may picture that home-coming of the dead husband and father. Sympathy with the bereaved was deep and widespread, and attested by the large gathering at the funeral. Next, Richard T. Hodge died after a long period of suffering ; had been in the hospital at Montreal for several months and had undergone two or three operations. I visited him frequently in his last days, and in the moments of ease from pain he expressed himself as hopeful of ac- ceptance with God through the merits of Christ. An in- terval of a month and Nelson Carson died at the age of iorty-three years. Last of all. 1 have to record with sorrow the death of an old and kind friend indeed, in the person of widow Mary Denison, of Denison's Mills, at the great age of ninety-eight years, seven months and eighteen days. Although she had been a suti'erer for a long time, her end was painless and peacefu. It was very gratify- ing to hear the ungrudging testimony to the hospitality and warm-heartedness of the deceased. Although the old legend, " good entertainment for man and beast," is not written over the Denison's front door, every visitor to that hospitable house will gladly assent to its truth. In January the agent for the S. P. C. K., the Rev. H. Gomery, paid us a visit ; but a dark night, bad weather and bad roads resulted in a small congregation ; but the agent, unaffected by the scanty attendance, gave us his best in an interesting address on the work of the S. P. C. K. on this Continent, and especially in Canada, from the first settle- ment of the Church on these shores. To the collectors, those young ladies who collected for the Church Society, and those young gentlemen who collected for the Robert Hamilton Memorial, I tender my heartiest thanks. This fall our stable has been repaired with new sills and flooring, and put to rights generally. I want to thank all those who came to help, some giving two and some three »■ * 77 days' work gratis, a groat thing for men who have quito enough to do at home. The cost for materials and extra work was about $45. Thanks, too, are tendered to all who did work with teams, hauling stones and timber and send- ing materials. As usual, Churoh-Wardens, Organists, Choirs, Col- lectors and many others have made things pleasant and easy of accomplishment by their readiness always to give a helping hand. The kitchen at the Parsonage has been newly ceiled with narrow boards over the piaster. Our thanks are due to the Church-Wardens foi this really good work. Through the kind assistance of the Archdeacon we are in possession of a good Sunday School Library. "We sub- scribed $2;') and the S. P. C. K. kindly gave us $50 worth of books for that sum. On receipt of the books I sent a letter of thanks to the Society through the Secretary. Miss L. Jebb, on the occasion of her marriage, received from the congregations ol St. Paul's and Christ Church the sum of $18,50 as a token of good-will. Miss Gertrude Sykes received a gift of $10 from the congregation of St. Paul's in recognition of her services since Miss Jebb's re- tirement. Baptisms, Oj, Confirmed, 8 ; Marriages, 5 ; Burials, 6.

St. Clement's Mission. The Rev. G-eorge Pye reports : — The work in this Mission has been rather harder on the Missionary than usual for two reasons. The absence of the Deacon from the staff has given the Priest extra duties ; the Missioner, having to travel alone over the whole dis- tance, which includes the western portion annexed to the old Mission, when the Deacon was added to the staff. I have tried to keep up the work of the two and no doubt have failed in the duty of the one ; but by the help of Almighty God I have made the two regular trips over the whole Mission, which are as follows :— Early in January 1 set out with my own cometiqueand dogs from Mutton Bay, on my eastern journey, going as far as the east side of Forteau Kay, in the Newfoundland Dioceses of Labrador, but not without much difiiculty, as the weather during the ' winter months was very stormy, the cold very severe and the travelling very bad. After spending a few days in that Diocese, I returned to Mutton Bay, and again set out on my western trip, calling and remaining a few days at Harrington Harbour, so as to travel in company with the mail to Natashquan, where I enjoyed two days with one man, and returned again to Mutton Bay after spending Holy Week and Easter Sunday at Harrington Harbour. As soon as the ice cleared away 1 equipped my boat — the " Evangeline" — and took my departure from Mutton Bay to visit the western ])ortion, especially that beyond Natashquan. I made the journey, some distance by boat, more by schooner, and the remainder on foot to Sheldrake, and back again to Mutton Bay. After a few days I pro- ceeded on to Blanc Sablon and returned to Mutton Bay ' • 79 the middle of August, where I stripped my boat, had her put away, and then left by schooner for a holiday- After the absence of four weeks I was landed at Shel- drake and travelled on foot to Mingan, thence by schooner to Mutton Bay, .vhere I am now waiting for a schooner to proceed on to St. Paul's River for the first part of the winter. Our staff of teachers, mentioned in last year's report, did a good work for Christ and His Church at the different stations during the greater part of the year, and have returned to their labours with the exception of Mr. C. Rothera, whose place is filled by Mr. J. E. Cogswell. Our people have noticed the great difference of Missionary work done on the Coast this summer compared with that of last, as last season we had the pleasure of our Bishop's visit, the Rev. James Hepburn, his Chaplain, the Rev. J. Almond, Missionary in charge, and myself, whereas I have been single handed this summer, or what some of our people call cross handed. We are looking forward to next year with pleasure, when we hope to see and have the same number with us again. I am glad to be able to report that the fishery has turned out rather better than expected when I left the Coast in August, and so we are looking lorward to a more cheerful winter ; but last summer being such a total failure in the centre of our Mission, the people are not going to be able to make both ends meet, if they pay up what they went behind last year I here wish to thank the Very Rev. Dean Williams and the Rev. E. A. Dunn for interceding and procuring from the Government a few barrels of flour, which I know will be needed before the long winter is passed. During ray holiday the Mission received two very help- ful and useful gifts : The Church at St. Paul's River, built by the congregationalists, was transferred to us, and a new Mission boat, now at Murray Bay, given by Mrs. Ed. Blake, of Toronto, which I value very highly and believe to be a *' God's send," as I have been trying in different ways for the passed year to get a more suitable boat, when this charitable gilt came quite unexpectedly. This teaches us to remember that " all thmgs work together for good to them that love God " Our work iu the western part of the Mission has been very encouraging, and also at Harrington Harbour, where ■Miir u\ 80 we have a new school standin]Ej near the Church now ready for use, which has already cost eighty dollars (180.00) apart from the labour given by the people Three brackets with six hanging lamps have been added to the lights in the Church. I wish to thank Mr. Norris of Quebec, for giving these under cost, and Mrs D. Bobbitt, one of our people, for collecting the money required for their purchase. A second school is in building at Mutton Bay, which wii hope to have ready for use next May. A third school, spoken of for Old Fort Bay, has turned out a failure, which shows that the Missionary has not all peace and sunshine. He prays that God's Holy Spirit may touch the hearts of these people and rouse them to do something, so that *\ good work may be done among them some day, for with- out a building one is unable to make mucli progress. In conclusion, I wish to take this opportunity of thank- ing my Church- Wardens, Messrs. Daniel Bobbict and Fred. Jones, of Harrington Harbour ; John Yarn and Thomas Buffet, of Mutton Bay. for the deep interest taken in the welfare of the Church and Mission. Also, the Lay Readers, Messrs. G-eorge Organ and John Bobbitt, for keep- ing up the Sunday Services in our absence. Lastly, the Sun- day School teachers who keep up their good work among the, young. May this good work continue and grow for the cause of Christ and glory of His Name. Baptisms, 17 ; Burials, 2. Financial STATEMhNT.

LAKE ST. JOHN MISSION. The Rev. E A. Dunn reports: — Since the departure of the Rev. J. Almond at the end of October for South Africa, where he is serving as Chaplain to the lirst Canadian Contingent, I have taken temporary charge of this portion of his work. Consequently, it is difficult to offer much of a report. • 81 The monthly visits for Sunday Services have been paid regularly. Daring the time spent on the Reserve by the Indians, who came down in smaller numbers than usual, Mr. Almond and a friend camped near the Church and held continual Services. At the Hotel Roberval also, with the kind permission of the manager, Mr. H. G-. Beemer, Service was conducted every Sunday during the season. The Pointe Bleue Church, which was clapboarded rather more than a year ago, is soon to receive a much needed coat of paint. Baptism, 1 ; Marriages, 2. Financial Statement.

In St. James' Church, Leeds, morn- ing and evening Services have bee/i said with few excep- tions. A monthly v^3lebration of the Holy Communion during the year and y the Ladies of the Congregation. It is not too much to say that the whole Congregation regretted the removal of i* 86 Mr. James King, our faithful and painstaking Warden, and his devoted wife, both of whom were always ready to give either their money or their labour, when the Church required help. "We are very much indebted to Mr. John Brown for his self-denying labours as Church- Ward en, extending over a period of years. Mr. Thomas Morrett has kindly consent* ed to fill the vacancy made by Mr. King's removal until Easter. I cannot close this report without thanking Mr. M W. Hamilton for much valuable assistance, and Miss Nuttie Fiton for her faithful and untiring services as organist, and all the members of the choir. Also the Church Helpers for making collections for the Church Society, and Mrs. Brown i'or her unwearied care of the Communion Vessels and liinen, keeping them so bright and clean, for the due Celebration of that most Holy Service.

The attendance, notwithstanding our reduced numbers and the distances which many of our people have to drive, has been very good and fairly regular. W"* have lost during the year by removals twenty-seven persons and by death two. Mr Henry Sample (for some years our Church-Warden) and his iamily, Mr. Robt. Brown and his family. Miss Lynch and Ernest and Grordon Buchanan have gone to Montreal, Mr. Lowson and family to Quebec, and Miss Mary Brown, our devoted school teacher, to Minneapolis. It is not likely that any of these persons will ever come back to »*. t 87 i' reside in Liverpool, but we are {^lad to know that they are all attendinar the Services of the Church in their new homes, so that our loss is a gain to the Church elsewhere. Services have been held at St. Henri, Belair and Chau- diere Mills every three months. Owing to the reduced number of Sunday School scholars it was thought well to change our Sunday School into a Bible Class, with a view of including some of those who have outgrown the ordinary Sunday School age to come together for instruction. Through the faithfulness of the Superintendent, E. H. Wade, Esq , and Miss Atkinson, whose self-denying labours are highly appreciated here, quite a number of young people attended the classes. A new roof has been put upon the horse-shed near the Church, so that all our Church buildings are in good repair. It is my painful duty to record the death of Mr. Gilbert Downes, of St. Henri, a very devoted and faithful member of Liverpool congregation. Also the death of Robt. C. Brown, of St. Komuald, who was taken away in the prime of his manhood. It was with sincere regret that we parted with Miss Mary Brown, our successful school teacher, but we are pleased to know that Miss Maggie Brown has taken her place, so that we have not only secured the services of a good teacher, but we have kept one of our own people with us. I am indebted to the Venerable Archdeacon Roe, and the Reverends Messrs. Sooti and Etherington, of Quebec, for assistance during the year. I cannot conclude this report without acknowledging with gratitude the many kindnesses received from my people during the year. To our devoted Church- Wardens, Henry Atkinson, Esq., and E. H. Wade, Esq., I am in- debted for much sympathy and hearty co-oporation. To our Bible Class teachers, Church Society collectors, and to Miss Ethel Atkinson, for her faithful services as organist, and to all the members of the Choir my sincere thanks are due.

Summary of .eports furnished by Rev. J. Prout, Mis- sionary, and his Lay Header : — Grindstone. — ihis is the headquarters of the Mission. Services have been held regularly, as in 1898, except during my few weeks' absence in Quebec, when through a misunderstanding some of the other Islands received more attention and Grindstone less than usual. The Services continue to be well attended and apparent- ly much appreciated. The responding is hearty. We have a goodly number, too, in attendance at Sunday School. Our little Church was prettily decorated for Christmas, and the Service bright and hearty on that glad Festival. Our good people, always ready to help in any work cal- culated to promote the Master's cause, are now preparing for a Christmas Tree, and a little later, for a Parochial (Jon- cert. Our Parsonage has been painted at a cost of $70, an amount most kindly given me by friends in Quebec. We have also had twelve acres of cultivated land belonging to the Parsonage, enclosed by a new fence, and otherwise im- proved. Grosse Isle. — A Lay Reader is here at work under Mr. Front's supervision, who holds Services on Sunday, and teaches school throughout the week. Mr. Frout notes a great impetus given to Church life and religious earnest- ness. The Church edifice itself has been rendered more worthy of its lofty purpose by the ofierings of devoted hands and hearts. Amongst the internal improvements, Mr. Prout speaks of a new Altar Cloth, Chancel carpet, Episcopal chair,^new lamps and matting for the aisle, as having been provided during the year, and the seats paint- ed. The Lay Reader speaks of Services held twice each Sunday and on the greater Festivals. He bears wintess to the deep and increasing appreciation of their religious privileges shown by the pe nle generally, the average at- tendance at Church being at eighty, and when fishing schooners are in port uiten reaching to one hun- dred and thirty. He bears witness also to the cheer- ful and liberal manner in which the people contri- > • / 4 89 > $ t .♦, bute towards the support of their Church, quoting the instance of some, living at a (listaiici^, who had already given what appeared to him a reasonable suir., and a few weeks later sending double the amount of their iirst ottering, with the expressed conviction that they could not do too much for 1 and His Church. He tells of a beau- tiful Altar Fro worked by Mrs. James McLean and Mrs. Edward McFhail, and of much raluable work given by Messrs. Howard McPhail and James McLean, the Misses McPhail, Clarke and others. On certain Sundays appointed for the Celebration of the Holy Communion, Mr. Prout and his Lay Reader exchange places. This involves a drive of fifty miles for ea«th, and for the Lay Reader, who has to be back at Grosse Isle for his school on Monday morning, a drive of twenty-five miles after his evening Service at Grindstone. Forty-eight pupils are in attendance at the day school at Grosse Isle. Th« school has been inspected by Mr. Norman Clarke and a gratifying report given. I he Lay Reader and School Teacher for the year ending July, 1899, was Mr. David Curran, at present attending bishop's College. Mr. Wurtele has been taking duty since Mr. Curran left. On the whole the work here appears to be progressing very favourably. Entri/ Island. — There are evidences here, too, Mr. Prout says, of the quickening of religious life, if the spiritual life may be gauged by outward zeal in Church matters. Like their fellow-churchmen ot Grosse Isle, the people here have done much during the year to improve and adorn their Church edifice. A new stone foundation has been placed under the building, and a new Altar Cloth, Chancel carpet, and matting for the aisle, provided. Much in- debtedness is expressed to Mrs. Hunter Dunn, of Bishops- thorpe, for a bale of clothing for the poor ; and to the fol- lowing gentlemen for pecuniary aid towards the stipend of the Lay Reader, viz. : Wm.

The Rev. R. W. E. Wright reports :— The following is a brief report of the work done in this Mission daring the past year : Magog. — The Services have been kept up as usual in St. Luke's Church and a lew added, — Celebrations of the Holy Communion every Sunday and Holy Day, and Matins and Evensong on Sundays, and a short Service with address on Friday evenings. During Advent and Lent special Services were held. Last Lent there was a daily Service on Wednesdays and Fridays in the Church, and on the other days of the week in the Guild Room, which was fitted up appropriately for the occasion. The attendance at these Services was most gratifying and encouraging. On Easter Day the number of communicants was greater than that recorded in any former year. I am glad also to be able to say that the number of those who communicate regularly is slowly but surely increasing, a fact which pleases me more than any- thing else in connection with my work The attendance at all Services has been good, and I espe- cially note that the number of men at the Evening Service on Sundays now very often exceeds the number of the op- posite sex, a rather uncommon occurrence. The different Guilds and Societies in connection with the Church are doing good work, especially the Brother- hood of St. Andrew, which, though very small numerically, makes the result of its work very evident. We have lost during the year quite a number of Church families by removal, and this has greatly affected the financial side of the Church work, though by harder work we have so far met all obligations without much difficulty. This Fall the electric light was installed in the Church, and has proved a complete success and brightened up the Church building wonderfully. The money required was collected by the Woman's Guild. ♦4>1 91 The Lord Bishop visited the Parish on Sunday, dctobef 29th, and confirmed 13 persons, all of whom have become Communicants. The debt for Parsonage repairs has now been reduced to about $136.00, and the Woman's G-uild hope to clear this off before next Easter. We have received as gifts some most welcome additions to our Church ornaments in a second pair of brass Altar Vases and a red dossal and fixtures. Cherry River. — Services are held in tho School-House two Sundays out of three at three o'clock in the afternoon. The Services are hearty and bright, but not attended as they ought to be. Unfortunately there seems to be a lack of interest in Church matters in this section of the Mission, which seems very hard to overcome. Castlebronke. — Services are held in the School-House every third Sunday at three o'clock in the afternoon. The attendance is good and a real interest seems to be taken in the Church Services. This Fall an old shed was given by one of the congregation to be used as a horse-shed ; others got together and moved it to the School-House and repaired it, and it is now in use and fills a long felt want. I wish, before closing my report, to take this opportunity of thanking all of my Helpers in the Parish. As Baptisms are said to be a proof of progress, I wish in conclusfon to draw attention to the number registered this year, viz., 44. Baptisms, 44; Confirmed, 6 ; Marriages, 6 ; Burials, 16.

The Rev. G-. R. "Waltero reports : — It really seems hard to find material for a report that should be not only interesting to those who read the work of our Church Society, but one that should be encouraging to the Diocesan Board, to whom we are indebted year by year for continued support Here in Malbaie I am afraid I cannot speak of increasing congregations. This is owing to the constant exodus of our young people, who are tempt- ed to leave us in search of employment elsewhere. This steady drain upon the Church's young life is sorely felt in many ways ; and especially as it has affected the size of our congregations and the heartiness of our responsive worship. Sunday and other Services have been maintain- ed as usual throughout the year at our three stations, and the attendance has been as satisfactory as could haive i;een expected during the summer months, and fairly good in winter. I am glad to be able to speak encouragingly of the number of men who come, and come with some degree of regularity to the Celebrations of the Holy Com- munion. Sunday School has been conducted regularly. The number of children in attendance has not increased, but the regularity of those who have attended has improv- ed. One could much wish that parents generally realized more fully their duty and responsibility in connection with this matter. A Sunday School pic-nic was held in August last at Point St. Peter, at which indeed all the young children in the Mission were present, it was a happy and enjoyable event. A new organ has been purchased for St. Peter's Church, Malbaie. For this we are largely indebted to Mr. and Mrs. CoUas, bat we thank also all who contributed thereto. Our Parsonage Fund is quietly, but steadily growing. This year again a nice little sum, the proceeds of sales, etc., 93 has been added to the Fund. Our good friends at Corner Beach help«?d us very materially. To every adult Protestant in this Mission has notice been sent requesting him kindly to furnish a certain amount of material for thiu long talked of Parsonage. It is a matter of satisfaction and thankfulness to me that our Church- Wardens have signed the new agreement for increased assessment. It was not, however, without much consideration and speculation as to their ability to meet it, for we have lost, not by removal alone, but by death several valued members and faithful Church supporters during the year. Twice during my absence the Rev. Mr. Richmond, of Gaspe, most kindly conducted Funeral Ser- vices for me. In conclusion I desire most heartily to thank the Church- Wardens of our several stations for their efficient work and for many kind services rendered to me personally. I wish also to thank all our Church workers. Baptisms, 30; Marriages, 6; Burials, 13. Financial Statement. Corner EXTRA-DIOCESAN : Malbaie.

CD. METAPEDIA. This district borders on the Province of New Brunswick and is intersected by a river of the same name, and also by 94 the I. C. R. There are a few scattered Church families, living for the most part along the line of rail and on the banks of the river for a distance of about thirty miles. Far removed from any Mission within the Diocese of Quebec, they are most kindly looked after by the Rev. J. Spencer, Incum- bent of Campbellton, N. B. In a brief account of his work within our borders, Mr. Spencer says : — During June, July and a part of August the Very Rev. Dean Hotiman, of New York, conducted a weekly Service at Metapedia. Dr. Hoffman is a member of the Resti- gouche Salmon Club, and usually spends six or eight weeks each summer at the Club at Metapedia, and when he does so invariably conducts a Service on the Sunday. Needless to say his services are very highly appreciated and attended by large congregations. I have, as heretofore, done all I could to minister to the scattered Church people in your Diocese, and I have given the attention I have felt they ought to have. Scattered as they are from Oak Bay Mills to Deeside, on the river bank, a distance of thirty-three miles, and on the line of the I. C. R. thirty-five miles from Campbellton, a good deal of time is necessarily spent in reaching them all. I have, however, visited every family four times during the year, and have given a monthly Service in their homes to those so far removed as to be unable to attend the Churches. Number of Services held, twelve ; Celebrations of Holy Eucharist, tour ; Catechising of children, nine ; Confirmed, one ; Baptisms, two ; visits to ten families, forty ; Families removed, one; amount of offerings at Services, $13.60; cost of travelling by road and rail, $3.40 ; amount to credit, $5.20. MELBOURNE. The Rev. Ernest A. Willoughby King reports : — Period— Advent, November 27th 1898 to July 31st 1899. — Services as usual and regularly, with exception of four at out-stalions only. Sunday School instruction re- sumed in spring. Visiting was for some time mainly con- fined to the sick, owing to the Incumbent's dislocation of shcalder, and yet five hundred and seven recorded visits were made within the year. January 2nd, Rov. H. Gomery, S. P. C. K. agent, paid a much-valued visit. May 27th and 28th, visitation of the Lord Bishop. At St. liHwii«^ ■ ' ' and displayed their earnestness and desire to farther the interests of the Church in their midst. The sum of ahont $80 was placed in the Bank by Mrs. Mathias nearly two years ago. Upon the reassembling and reorganizing of the Guild this money has been handed over to the new Secretary-Treasurer, Mrs. James Newell. The Guild mem- bers are to be congratulated upon having obtained suffi- cient money with which to procure a bell. £xtra credit is due to Miss Beatrice and Mrs. Mathias for having contri- buted $19 towards this object by obtaining donations from their immediate friends and acquaintances outside of this Mission. The three Sunday Services have been conducted in the same order as arranged by my predecessors. It is under contemplation to arrange Services so that the Communi- cants at New Rockland may enjoy similar ministrations that their brethren are receiving in other portions of the Mission. A Sunday School, of which I take personal charge, is held before Service on Sunday mornings in St. John's Church. Miss B. Mathias and Mr. O. Burt kindly assist. At St. Saviour's, Melbourne Ridge, I have established a Bible Class and Choir Practice on Wednesday evenings. A Choir Practice is also held in St. John's Churc ? -n Friday evenings. Miss Greenwood faithfully discharge 3 her du- ties as organist in St. Saviour's, whilst in St. John's a staff of organists play in turn. The financial position of both St. John's and St. Saviour's congreofations appears to be in a healthy and satisfactory condition. Of the New Rockland congregation similar ex- pressions can hardly be said. For nearly two years the rent of the School-House (owned by the Quarry Co ) has been unpaid. The congregation has been threatened by the Manager, that unless the amount of rent due is paid forthwith, that they will be prohibited from using the building. They are also owing their organist's salary. To make matters worse many of the Church people, who were liberal contributors, have removed. Notwithstanding these gloomy facts, we can take heart and fresh courage. Miss Dunn, a Presbyterian, has kindly volunteered her services as organist in future ; the Diocesan Board has re- duced the assessment to :$25 per year, whilst Mr. Arthur Wilcocks, who takes a deep interest in this congregation, has most generously and liberally contributed 1 10 toward 98 1 1 i • meeting present emergencies. The Wardens, thus enconr- aged and materially assisted, are endeavoring to wipe oft all indebtedness by the end of Docember. The vexed question of the fence at St. John's Parsonage, which in the past seems to have caused so much friction and heart-burning, has, I am thankful to say, been settled by the congregation in a most amicable manner. Improvements continue around St. Saviour's Church. The exterior of the edifice has received, within the last few weeks, the completion of its Hrst coat of paint. The ground has been slightly levelled, and the remaining posts have been put in to enclose the Church property. Wire has been ordered. Within n short time the grounds and cemetery will be closed in. To complete the interior of the Church, as designed by my predecessor, will cost $200, a sum rather prodigious for a congregation such as this. Sheds for the horses are sadly needed. To leave horses out in the wet and cold in such a bleak and unsheltered situatiou would be encouraging cruelty to animals. September 20th was observed as a Dedication Festival in St. Sv /iour's. The Holy Communion was administered during the Morning Service, when the Archdeacon acted as Celebrant, and preached a most carefully prepared, intelligent and instructive sermon appropriate for the day< In the evening the Rev. E. A. W. King gave an extremely interesting and lucid address upon St. Saviour's, South- wark. Mr. King, at the outset, announced the pleasing fact that the Church wherein the congregation was assembled was entirely free from debt, so far as it had been completed. Rural Dean Hepburn, in some well chosen words, briefly addressed the congregation. We owe a debt of gratitude to Mr. Arthur Wilcocks for his valuable and kind assistance in conducting Services in the Mission during the month of August, my predecessor having resigned on July 31st. The oldest parishioner, Mrs. H. McKee, aged ninety years, entered her rest on October 24th. Her mortal remains were interred in St. John's Cemetery on October 26th, 1899. The subjoined statement has been necessarily compiled from figures by my predecessor, the Rev. E. A. W. King, to whom credit is due for the business-like manner in which he kept his accounts.

MONTMORENCY AND LAKE BEAUFORT. The Rev. E. A. Dunn reports: — Montmorency. — It would be difficult to point to any special sign of progress in the work here. Still, we trust, that there is a continual, though but gradual growth of Church life. The Sunday Services have been held regu- larly with fair congregations, but the attendance at the monthly Celebration of the Holy Communion is far from what it ought to be, and without this we cannot prosper very much. Last Easter the Envelope System was intro- duced for the support of the Church, and it has met with very fuir success. The Sunday School has been maintained with good results through the kind help of our organist, Miss Moore. I regret that the total amount of our collec- tions and offerings in behalf of the funds of the Church Society is not quite as large as in the previous year. We will try to remedy this falling off, for which it is not easy to find any reason, in the future. Lake Beauport. — Although only a fortnightly Service is promised to this congregation, yet during the year thirty- 100 -J' five Sunday Services have beon hold, and this increase in t he number of Services has, I feel, been met by n slightly better attendance on the part of the p ople. The horse- shed, mentioned in previous reports, is now practically completed, and the new organ ia shortly to be ordered. We had both a concert and a variety entertainment in tho sum- mer months, which were well supported in every way by our visitors, the proceeds being devoted,- partly to the paying of the insurance on our Church for three years and partly to Church repairs and improvements. I desire to thank all, at either place, who have assisted in tho Church's work, by their time, their talents or their prayers, and I trust that with God's blessing the year 1900 may be for us a year of earnest devotion and steady pro- gress to the glory and praise of God.

Dedication of the New Church of St, Anne. On Wednesday, July 26th, were realized the long cherished hopes of many earnest and devoted members of our Church, summer residents of this attractive watering place. P'eeling the need of more Services and especially of more frequent Celebrations of the Holy Communion than they were able to obtain in the " Union Church," these good people obtained the consent of the Lord Bishop of the Diocese to erect a little Church at their own expense — the 101 54 00 9ff 77 00 98 71 sa land and edifice to bo deeded to His Lordship and placed entirely under his control — where they might enjoy th«> relif^ious privilejifes to which they had been accustomed and which the chunth so generously provides for. Ground was broken on 26th June, and one month from that date a plain but pretty little Church, well appointed and well fur- nished, and capable of holding one hundred people, was solemnly dedicated to the Service ot God under the name of " St. Anne." The Service of Dedication was performed by the Lord Bishop of Ottawa, acting under a special License from the Bishop of Quebec (at that time in England). Very beautiful Altar Vessels and other requi- sites for the due administration of Divine Worship were consecrated to God's service after Evensong on the previous day. The early Celebration of the Holy Communion on the 26th was taken by the Rev. A. J. Balfour, whom the Bishop of Quebec had appointed Priest in charge for the season. The Service of Dedication began at 11 o'clock. The little Church was filled to its utmost extent. Whilst a processional hymn was being sung, the Bishop and Clergy, duly robed, walked around the exterior of the Church and entered by the western door. Here, the hymn bein«T endod, the Bishop called upon the Rev. Mr. Balfour, as Ri'clor, to read the commission from the Bishop of Quebec under which he (the Bishop of Ottawa) was acting. Then foU low'ed the impressive Service of Dedication, the first part in the Nave, the concluding portion within the Sanctuary. This Service was followed by a hymn and the Communion Oflice, the Lord Bishop being Celebrant, the Rev. Dr. Rainsford. of St. George's Chuich, New York, Epistoler ; and the Rev. Dr. Allnatt, Vice-Principal of Bishop's Coileg*', Gospeller. The sermon, a very able one, was preached by the Rev. Dr. Parks, of Cavalry 'Church, New York. The Paten and the Chalice were administered by Mr. Balfour and the Rev. Abbott Smith, of the Montreal Diocesan Col- lege, respectively. The Rev. Professor Wilkinson, of Bishop's College, Lennoxville, also took part in the Ser- vice, Mr. Oliver acting as Server. The musical portion of the Service was under the management of General Oliver, a devoted Churchman and a fine organist. He was supported by a strong choir, com- posed, in addition to members of his own family, of Pres- byterian as well as Anglican friends. The singing through- out was most hearty. The names of those who have given I (I 102 so willingly of their means and their time towards the erection of this Church, and of those who have made special gifts to%vards furnishing the same, are, by their own special request, not mentioned. Their offerings are purely for God's glory, and their own names they prefer to be withheld. After the Service of Di'dication, the Bishop, the visiting Clergy, and some thirty or forty friends were most kindly entertained at luncheon by Mrs.. Oliver and her hospitable family. As all the promoters of this new work, American and English, have been accustomed to an Ornate Service, and to usuages and Ritual (all authorized by the Church of England) to some unfamiliar, but to them helpful and con* ducive to the more lofty conceptions of Divine Worship, the Kector in charge decided at all the early Celebrations of the Holy Communion to observe the features dear to the builders of the Church ; and at the late Celebrations and in the order of Morning and Evening Prayer to follow the simpler order more familiar to some others. If any proof were wanting of the need which had existed here of a sacred edifice belonging exclusively to the Church of England where all the religious privileges which the Church has to offer could be obtained, this proof is found in the fact that from the outset the building proved quite too small. From twenty to fifty extra seats were called into requisition each Sunday ; and on some occasions would-be worshippers were unable to gain any admission. One generous layman offered to bear the expense of imme- diate enlargement, but it was deemed wise not to take this step during the first season. In addition to daily Matins at 10 o'clock, in compliance with the expressed wish of many, the Holy Eucharist was celebrated every morning at 7.30. On one occasion only during the season did the attendance at this latter Service fall short of five. All who were present, however, did not actually communicate each day. The Priest in charge received much valued assist- ance from the Kev. Dr. Rainsford, of St. George's Church, New York, from the Rev. Father Lobdale, of Philadelphia; and from the Rev. J. D Tibbits, of Concord, New Hamp- shire. The congregation was fortunate in having as organist, after the departure of General Oliver, Professor Knox, musician and composer, of St. Paul's School, Con- cord. The offering's on August 20th, amounting to $71, I 1^- i^ 108 were given in aid of tho Convalescent Home, a most ad- mirable and well managed charitable institution and one deserving of all support here situated. NEW CARLISLE AND PASPEBIAC. .« .' <• No report received. NEWPORT. The Rev. Arthur H. Moore reports: — One does not easily write a report of the work of the past year without stamping it with the impress made upon one's mind by the general outlook of that work at the time of writing. There is much in this Mission at this time to encourage and to cheer. Upwards of twenty-five candidates have been receiving instruction for some time and are now prepared to be con- firmed. May the visit of our beloved Bishop, to which they are now eagerly looking forward, be for them the be- ginning of a new life " hid with Christ in God." The regular Sunday and Advent and Lenten Services have been carried on without interruption, and in some cases with increased attendance. Randbord". — "While the attendance here is small, the Ser- vices are hearty and the Communion Service solemn and reverent. Miss F. Planche continues her faithful and much appreciated services at the organ. Through the energy of Mr. G. G. Hurd, Church- Warden, the exterior and part of the interior of this Church has been painted. The Ladies' Guild bought the material, and Mr. Hurd and a few others did the work gratis. Island Brook. — The congregation here has improved, and I am glad to see our young people showing their interest in the Church, despite the lukewarmness of some of the older ones. I am sorry to say that many here have yet to learn the value and help of the Lord's Supper. The Church has been improved by adding Choir seats and a Vestry book- case. The spire has been repaired. Mr. Geo. French has built a fence around the Church grounds. The Ladies' Guild paid for the wire and for the other improvements I have mentioned, as well as sharing vith the Randboro' Guild an item of $15 for Parsonage im- provements. Learned Plain and Clifton school-houses have, fortnightly, 104 Sunday evening Services. At the former place Mrs. A. V. Bowen has an excellent Sunday School in the summer. The Service is hearty. We welcome Miss V. Bowen back to the organ. At Clifton the attendance is small, but the appreciation of the Service is real, in testimony whereof witness the sum of $50 raised here, in one way or another, during the year, for' Church purposes. Sawyerville.— The fornightly Sunday afternoon Service here has a steady and hearty attendance. An organ has been bought for this station, and the $22.50 required for the first payment was at once voluntarily given by the few families here. Mr. Ernest Smith, Principal of the School, holds a Reader's License, and he is a most welcome addition to our choir and congregation, as well as being willing to assist me in the Service. Our Harvest Thanksgiving Services were well attended. Our thanks are due to those who preached for us. A Christmas Treat and Tree, given to over sixty children, from all parts of the Mission, last year, is still remembered among past successes. A Branch of the Woman's Auxiliary has been organized by Mrs. Moore with members in all parts of the Mission. We trust that by the work of the Church here souls shall be strengthened and refreshed, and the great God glorified. Baptisms, 2 ; Confirmed, 24 ; Marriage, 1 ; Burials, 7. Financial Statement.

PENINSULA AND LITTLE OASPE. The Rev. A. "W. Dutton reports : — Before coming- here in September last, f did duty for two months in the Mission of Way's Mills and Barnston. Dur- ing that period Services were held regularly in both Churches. The attendance on the whole was fairly good at Way's Mills, the average being about thirty-five, but at Barnston the attendance was decidedly poor. During my short stay in that Mission I was received everywhere with hospitality and kindness, for which I felt and still feel very grateful. 1 have to thank the Rev. A Stevens, of Halley, and the Rev. H. A. Brooke, of Stanstead, for kindly taking Services and administering the Holy Communion for me. We arrived at J'eninsula on the morning of the 14th September, and on being driven up to the Parsonage by the Church' Wardens, who had thoughtfully met us at Gaspe Basin, were most kindly welcomed by several members of the Parish . The Monday after our arrival we received a visit from the Rev. H. Gomery, the agent of the S. P. C. K., who in the evening of the same day, gave a most interesting lecture on the work and aim of the Society which he represents. The lecture was much appreciated by all present. Harvest Thanksgiving was held in St. Matthew's Church, Peninsula, on the 19th October, and in St. Peter's Church, Little Gaspe, on the 3rd November. At both Services the Churches were tastefully decorated with fruit, flowers and grain, by willing members of the Mission. The sermon was preached on both occasions by the In- cumbent, and the musical portions were nicely rendered by the Choir. The collections were given to the Pension El* ^: w^-^' Wl 1L'"I'-"'M 106 Fund of the Diocese. The Sunday Schools, both here and at Little Gasp6, are in a satisfactory condition. My thanks are due to the Superintendents in both Parishes, and also to their assistants, for the valuable help they give in this good work. The Ladies' Guild of St. Matthew's continues to hold its monthly meetings. Through the efforts of this band of workers matting has been provided for the Church. They are now collecting money to supply a new frontal for the Altar, which is much needed. The interior of the Church in Peninsula has been greatly improved. It is now nicely ceiled and stained ; the seats also have been altered and stained, and the general effect is pleasing. The west end of the Church, however, is still waiting to be restored, and, until money is forthcoming for that object, nothing can be done in the w^ay of extension and decoration. We hope, nevertheless, by next June, with some outside help, to gather together enough money to continue the work of finishing the Church. Since I entered upon my duties in this Mission, Services have been held regularly every Sunday. Weekly Services are held also both at Peninsula and Little Gaspe, and on Saints' Days and Holy Days Morning Prayer is said in St. Matthew's, Peninsula During the season of Advent spe- cial addresses are being given at the weekly Services. All these Services have been well attended, and give great hope for the future. On the 21st Sunday after Trinity, the Rev. C. Ascah helped me with the Services, and celebrated the Holy Com- munion, when a goodly number received. He also kindly assisted me on the occasion of our Harvest Thanksgiving Service. The Kev. D. Horner, of Sandy Beach, has kindly consented to celebrate for me from time to time. I desire in conclusion to thank the Wardens of both Churches, and parishioners generally, for much appreciated help rendered and kindness shown me since my arrival amongst them.

Gr. T. Harding reports : — It seems to me that on the whole the Church has made distinct progress in this wide Missionary District during the past year. There are, without doubt, many evidences of God's blessing having rested upon our endeavours', and evidences too, in the case of many, of a growing apprecia- tion of Christian principles and spiritual privileges. It is true we have had losses which it was feared would in- juriously atFect us, and some trials heavy to bear ; but God is manifestly overruling them all to His glory. By the death of Mr. John Hill, for some years a Church-Warden, and ever an enthusiastic Church worker, we have lost one of our main supporters. Nor can I refrain from alluding to the death of Mr. Ernest Lawson, of Father Point, furnish- ing as his case does, a lesson of more than local interest. This young man, married to a Roman Catholic, was Con- firmed by the liishop in June, and gave evidence of be- coming a Churchman of great promise. His Confirma- tion made a very deep impression upon him, and was con- stantly referred to as the turning point of his life and the occasion of an unspeakable blessing to him. When stricken down with a malady he was enabled to meet his >> lit f/) end, not only with Christian fortitude, but with every ap- pearance of joy and happiness. The book of devotions given him by the Bishop at his Confirmation he kept un- der his pillow and read day by day while strength lasted. No pressure brought to bear could induce him to chang'e his faith. He received the last Rites of the Church, professing his faith with a holy joy not often witnessed. To his mother, sister (confirmed with him) and uncle, he fre- quently expressed his thankfulness for the privilege of having been Confirmed. Through the grace of God then bestowed, and spiritual refreshments subsequently receiv- ed in the Holy Communion, he was enabled, he said, to go forth in perfect peace and with a glad hope. I have dwelt at considerable length upon his case because I feel it to be one not of mere private, but of general interest, as show- ing what a power, through His Church and by Church principles, Christ may be to us in our last hours. Again, in October, we lost two young men, my own dear son and Walter Jarvis, who were drowned at Hare Island, opposite this place. The latter was Confirmed with young Mr. Lawson in June last. It is a matter of great thankfulness to me that both were very devout young men, regular communicants, of great help to me in my Bible Class and in other ways, and especially as setting a good example of consistent Christian life in the community. I am convinced, however, that all these troubles are being overruled for the ultimate good of the Church ; and al- ready I can see some indications of distinct blessing coming to us in compensation. Mr. J. W. A. Jarvis has taken the place of Mr. Hill as People's Warden, and has thrown himself heartily into the work, and given promise of becoming an efficient and suc- cessful officer of the Church. This is undoubtedly a gain. And other things, which I cannot allude to here, have given me hope that God will do more still for us in the future. A good thing, however, to notice in this connection is the increase in the amount raised for extra-parochial ob- jects. The collectors (the Misses Harding) secured by missionary cards for the Church Society $86.70 ; and this, with the special collections in Church for the same object, brings the total up to $ 15.83, as against $30.67 for the year 1898, an increase of $15 ; while the total for all extra parochial objects, this year, has jumped from $56.81 to 112 $101.84, an increase of ^46. This is very important and eneouraginj?, as 1 ie«l it my duty to impress upon my parishioners. More, as in most phices, the cry is, that we have to raise so much to keep the Church open that we cannot do anything for outside objects. But my own ex- perience teaches mo, that a Parish never loses by giving a willing .and liberal response to the calls from outside ; that internal prosperity depends vipon our generosity in this respect ; and whiit we raise for ourselves will be in pro- portion to whjit v\'e give to others. And this is surely but in accord with divine principles, such as in the precept : " Give, and it shall be given to you." Certainly, too, our affairs in the present year prove no exception to the above rule. For, notwithstanding our losses, an increased assess- ment, and the doubling of our contributions to extra parochial objects, things have been going well with us. The largest part of the Diocesan Board assessment has been paid, and 1 have good roason lor believing that the whole of the balance for the year will be made up in time to be promptly paid at the end of this quarter. And besides this, we have raised the considerable sum of $126.61 for repairs on the Church and Parsonage. I still enjoy very much my work at the out-stations of the Mission, where the people all co-operate with me so heartily, and are ever most hospitable and kind. In connec- tion with this work, I must notice an interesting feature to which i alluded in my last report. At St. Thomas I have Services in Mr. Owen's house. 1 make a point of regarding this small congregation as a Church. We have full Even- song with sermon on the night of my arrival, and early Ce- lebration of the Holy Communion the next morning, at which an otfering is made for the Missionary work ot the Church. We have sent ^3 to the Mission Fund of the Church Society, $3.25 for Domestic Missions, and now we have on hand a similar sum for Foreign Missions. I have also the sum of $1.10 collected, in excess of travelling ex- penses, at Father Point, for the same object, and obtained in the same way. Altogether, therefore, we have secured for the cause of Missions an extra sum of about $11, which would otherwise be lost to the Church. And I am sure that the practical good done by this means is far in excess of the amount collected, as it must make us all feel that we are actually trying to do something for God, and are " not hearers of the word only." 118 I visited Chicoutimi twice during the year, staying several days — including a Sunday— on each occasion, hold- ing Services, and celebrating Holy Communion. For the use of the School-House, in which the Presbyterians wor- ship, I was indebted, as on former occasions, to the kind- ness of their resident Minister, the Rev. Mr. Campbell. The peoi)ie— all of whom I visited — received me with their usual kindness ; . the Services were well attended and hearty, and all the Confirmed members of the Church communicated. At Riviere du Loup, it has seemed to me, that there has bi-en progress in many ways which I cannot vt^ry woU describe. Certainly, the attendance, of late, at both the ordinary Services and the Bi-monthly Celebrations.has im- proved, and is now much steadier than it was a year ago. The collections, too, are larger, and I think I can see a bet- ter spirit regarding God's work beginning to grow. I do not wish to speak over-conlidently, and shall only be thank- ful, if I am in any degree right in my opinion. The Bible Class for adults held last winter was very well attended, and seemed to have a generally good effect ; so much so, that I am encouraged to try it again this winter. I think we had a larger number of visitors last summer than in the preceding one. Their attendance at Church was undoubtedly better, making the Services hearty and enjoyable, as some of themselves declared. We are much indebted to these visitors for liberal aid towards the pay- ment of the Diocesan Board assessment. They seem to give willingly, and w^ithout them the people here could not make up the amount required ; therefore, on behalf of the Mission, I wish to thank them most heartily for their gen- erous help. At Portage, six miles from here, I held, as usual during the summer season, a Sunday afternoon Service for the visitors who go there. These Services were not as well at- tended as in the previous summer. This was due in part to the Weather, and in part to there having been a smaller proportion of good Church-goers amongst the new visitors this season. The Woman's Auxiliary and the Ladies' Guild both did very well this year, the latter having repaired part of the Parsonage at a cost of $22, and the former having raised $26 for Missionary purposes, including a barrel of clothing sent to the North- West, 8 114 i! 1 i In oonclusion, I wish to express my deep sense oroblisra* ' tion to all my parishioners for the kindness they have shown to myself and family. Presents of all kinds were sent to us, both before and at Christmas-tide. Rut, as bo- yond all praise, I cannot sufficiently express my gratitude to the whole English community here— members and non- members of the Church— for the outburjst of sympathy and condolence offered to us at the time of the recent affliction we met in the loss of our son, mentioned above. I can only pray that God may bless and help them in their time of need. Baptisms, 2 ; Confirmed, 5 ; Marriages, 2 ; Burials, 4. Financial Statgmknt.

SCOTSTOWN. The Rev. C. E. Bishop reports : — The Rev. H. A. Brooke severed his connection with this Mission last March, leaving " foot-prints " of a splendid work after five years' incumbency. From the first Sunday after Easter, till my appointment on the first of June, the Rev. B. Watson faithfully took charge of the Mission. At different times, Messrs. Balfour, Wurtele and Mitchell, Divinity students of Bishop's College Brotherhood of Lay Readers, have very acceptably taken Sunday duty. Scoistown. — Services are held here every Sunday, with a monthly Celebration of the Holy Eucharist. Besides a wel- comed visit from the Ven. Archdeacon Roe on Sunday, November 19th, the chief event since we came was the Deanery Meeting held here on the 9th and 10th of October, when the Rural Dean Robertson and six of the Clergy were in attendance. A Harvest Thanksgiving Service was held on the first evening of the Deanery, the preacher being the Rev. J. W. W— -i:i:--S 116 63 25 "Wayman, of .Tohnville, who gave us an excellent sermon The Lrtdies' Guild are doing good woric having raised and spent for various purposes over ♦SO, ^10 of which they have given to the recent repairs of the Parsonage. The Sunday School is doing quite well, but might be much better, if only the parents would interest themselves more in their children's spiritual welfare. Thit' may be said more or less of the whole Mission. A suggestion by the Bishop in his Lordship's Charge at the last Synod concerning the keeping of Church build- ings in a proper state of repair has been acted upon in this Mission. The Parsonage has been repaired ; th • horse barn moved to a convenient spot on the Parsonage lot ; new drain pipes laid, &c. We are much indebted for help to the men of Canterbury. McLeotta Crossing. —This is a new place, six miles from Scotstown, where there is a saw-mill, and a small butter tub factory, managed by Mr. F. W. Scott, a Churchman of Knowlton, P. Q. For some time I held a weekly Thursday Evening Service here, sometimes in the sawmill, some- times in the packing room, or boarding-house, which was well attended mostly by the workmen. Although unable to keep up the Services regularly for a few weeks p:ist, I hope to continue them during the winter, provided the mill runs. As a token of their appreciation of the Services, the men provided an organ for use at these Services, and also raised towards the Parsonage repairs $20.65. Canleiburp. — Services are held here every Sunday with a monthly Celebration. This is the largest congregation in the Mission, and there seems to be a growing interest in Church work. They have recently bought a new organ. The Ladies' Guild here is also doing well, having raised over $42 towards the new organ. Rev. C. B. "Washer, of Bury, kindly preached on the oc- casion of our Harvest Thanksgiving Service here. Linffwkk. — Services are conducted here every Sunday with a monthly Celebration. A very heartily appreciated sermon was preached at the Harvest Thanksgiving Service by the Rev. Mr. Husband, of Marbleton, whom wo were glad to welcome as a new-comer to these parts. Although the congregation is small, the people are very loyal indeed, as hns always been their reputation. True Churchmanshij) and not "manism" seems to inspire them in their Church duti(;s. The Sunday School is kept up nicely by Mrs. Pennoyer PPEfiiBpMiPPPP 116 \k and Mrs. F. Cowens. The congregation has managed to keep up the full assessment of $12 ) for another year, in spite of the loss they have sustained by the removal of four or live families from the Mission, the same as recorded in the last report. The Ladies' Gruild are ever busy and al- ways planning here as in the other parts of the Mission, how to further the best interests of the Church. During the year they have paid out over $60, $25 of which they have just given to the Parsonage repairs. And as the Wardens had all they could do to make up the assessment, the Guild also paid the insurance on the Church of $10.40. There is also a •' Girls' Friendly," which lends a great in- terest in the Sunday School work. Collections are being made in the whole Mission on behalf of the Kobert Hamil- ton Memorial, an object which should be gladly supported by CA'ery Church family in the Diocese of Quebec. In closing, I desire to thank our several Church- Wardens, Church -workers, and all who have laboured so faithfully in this Mission, and who have tendered us so many personal kindnesses since we came amongst them. Nor can I ever cease to feel grateful to those dear friends in my last Mission who, during four months of continued sickness in my family, rendered us sucli unwearied help, lovingly supporting us by their sympathy and manifold deeds of kindness. May we each and all have grace and strength faithfully to persevere in our respective duties, with a single eye to God's glory and the building up of our Master's Kingdom. Baptisms, 9 ; Burial,!.

The Rev. Dr. Dumbell reports : — On the 1st of March last the Rev. F. G. Vial entered upon his duties as Curate. He is, in every way, all that any Parish Priest could desire ; and, speaking selfishly, I earnestly hope that he may be able to remain with us for a long time. The work of the Parish has gone on uninterruptedly. The number of public Services held during the year was six hundred and eight, of which one hundred and six were Celebrations of the Holy Communion, seventy-eight at St. Peter's, and twenty-eight at the Advent. To the Socie- ties working in the Parish, as reported last year, two have been added, a Society for lending Articles and providing Comforts for the Sick Poor ; and a Guild for Children in the District of the Advent. The Lay-Helpers number two hundred and twenty, there being one hundred and eighty- two connected with the Parish Church, and thirty-eight with the Advent. To all of these, but especially to the Church-Wardens and Sunday School Superintendents, my warm thanks are due for their untiring and faithful Ser- vices. The Societies now at work are as follows : — The Altar Society, the Guild of St. Peter, the Women's Guild of the Advent, the Guild of St. Agnes, the Guild of St. Faith, the Girls' Friendly Society, the Woman's Auxiliary, the Dorcas Society, the Clothing Club, the Junior Auxiliary, the Christmas Club, the Sick-Lending Society, the Chil- dren's Guild of the Holy Nativity. I should like to refer in detail to the good work done by each of these Societies, but that is out of the question, I may, however, be permitted to draw attention to the suc- cessful working of the Clothing Club, which, under the conscientious and skilful management of Mrs Anderson and Mrs. Moe, has prospered greatly, and done immense good by the sale of articles of clothing of all kinds (given to the Club) to persons of small means, at very low prices. The buyers would much rather obtain what they need in this way than as gifts, and yet are greatly helped by the saving effected for them. The proceeds of the sales made by the Club go to the Poor Fund, so that a twofold work is accomplished by this excellent Society. We hope, all being well, to commence the erection of the new Church early in the spring. iHliHHM < I 118 The Sunday Services at the Brompton Line and Magog River School-Houses have been held without interruption throughout the year.

Kerr reports : — - During the year now almost ended the Services of the Church in this Mission have been continued in the usual order without intermission, except for a few Sundays when the Pastor was absent. The congregations have, on the whole, been fairly good, though not nearly as large as they might be, there being only too many signs of indiffer- ence in I eligious matters on the part of professing Christian families.

Death has visited all of our congregations during the past year, and some of our most earnest members have been called from earth to Paradise. We have also lost several families by removal to other parts of the Dominion. The most important work in the temporal affairs of this Mission durintr the year has been the erection of a Par- sonage, which is now almost ready for occupation. There still remains a debt of a little over 1200 to be paid, as well as a barn to be built. It is hoped that the people will make a combined, effort to clear off the debt before the end of the century. The few families (3) at Newport have succeeded in putting a good paling fence around their Church and grave-yard, which adds much to outward appearances, at the same time that it witnesses to a reverent care for things sacred. • The congregation of St. Philip's, Gascon, have improved their Church by the completion of the steeple ; and before another year is ended we hope to see a good bell in the tower. It seems to be a pleasure for this small congrega- tion to do all they can in beautifying Grod's House. The Ladies' Guild aiid "Woman's Auxiliary of St. Paul's Church still continue their active work for the Parish and Missions. On Thanksgiving Day the Services were especially bright and hearty. There was a Celebration of the Holy Communion at 7.30 a.m., and Evensong at 6 p m., when the Rector of New Carlisle gave an earnest and instructive sermon on the lessons to be gathered from " seed time and harvest." A fter the Service in the Church, the congrega- tion repaired to th.; hall where the ladies had provided a nice harvest supper. A most sociable and pleasant even- ing was spent, and all returned home feeling that we had indeed much reason to thank the giver of all good things for his many blessings to us both spiritual and temporal. I feel deeply grateful to the Church-Wardens, Organists and all other helpers of the Church for their faithful ser- vices throughout the year.

For the past few years the Rector of Staustead has had a resident Assistant at Beebe Plain ; but, owing to the smallness of the congregation, and the lack of funds to support a second Clergyman, I have now charge of both Stanstoad and Beebe Plain. Christ Church, Stanstend. — Services are held here morn- ing and evening every Sunday, with a Celebration of the Holy Communion each Sunday and Saint's Day, and also a Service on Wednesday evenings, followed by a Choir prac- tice. The congregations have been very fair, especially in the evening ; the morning congregation averaging sixty- five and the evening nearly sixty. We have lost the va- luable services of our two organists, Miss Meigs and Mrs. H. E. Channell, who for over twenty-lour and twenty years respectively, have voluntarily played the organ and train- ed the choir. The hearty thanks of the congregation have been conveyed to them for the long and faithful perform- iV i.

I regret to state that we have lost the services of Mr. Andrew Allan, jr., who for the past seven years has identified himself with the choir and all Church work. Mr. Allan and his family have removed from Stanstead to Ooatesviile, Pa, I hope that during the coming year the work of the St. Andrew's Brotherhood will be revived and fresh interest taken in it. All Saints' Church, Beebe Plain. — Services are held once every Sunday at 2.30 in the afternoon, with a Celebration of the Holy Communion on the first Sunday in the month at 8.30. Sickness has been very prevalent in this district, and through death w^e have lost two very promising young men. During the latter part of the year the attendance at Church has much imi>roved. We are led to hope for a fur- ther improvement next spring by the prospect of new granite works then coming into operation. The Ladies' Guild has recently been reorganized, and we look for much help from them during the coming year. When I came to Stanstead there was a debt in the Parish of over $500. lam thankful to report that with the kind help of friends outside, and the generous dona- tions by our own people, the debt by Chri.stmas will be re- duced to al)out $150, and we trust by next Easter the debt will be a thing of the past. Through the kindness and in- terestedness of all the Parishioners in the I'arish, I feel that I have much to be thankful for, and that there is indeed a briffht lutuie ibr our Church in Stanstead.

H. C. Stuart reports : — It is with much regrot that I report the death of Mrs. Catharine Rickaby, an old trilluviau, who has been for nearly half a century a warm friend of St James' Church. As a benefactor of our Local Endowment, a promoter of the embellishment of the Church, a constant and liberal con- tributor to our funds, and a valuable helper in various ways, she will lon^ be remembered by us all. To the sum of $732.89, which appears below as revenue, must be added the amount of Endowment revenue $281, making a total of #1,013.89, of which $813.89 was applied to payment of Rector's stipend, and the balance towards paying olf our liabilities. We sincerely regret our inability to send this year our usual contributions to the various funds ot the Church Society ; whilst still unable to meet certain important liabilities, we have not felt justified in so doing. We hope to be in a position to rectify this at a later date. Baptisms, 3 ; Burials, 5 ; Confirmed, 10. . Financial Statement.

Dr. Riopel reports: — This last summer further additions have been made tow^ards the completion of the needful buildings on the Parsonage premises, through the leadership of Mr. Carl Wolft' and the hearty assistance of other members of the congregation. The attendance at Church is still en- couraging and the devoutness of the congregation edifying, but the irregularity of morning Service here, nt^cessitated by my having occasionally to take a morning Service at Stoneham, is a source of disappointment to many. My stay in this Mission has been very pleasant ; and I only hope that my presence is as w^elcome to my people as their kind and hearty greetings are appreciated by me and my family. I think we have learned to understand each other and need fear no other truth but that of possible outside t ; 1^4 origin. I also very much enjoy the Services and visiting at Stoneham, and have found among the people there the noble quality of never uttering the least disparaging word anent any of my predecessors. They are a small but ap- preciative congrt'gation. Unfortunately their numbers are still diminishing through the gradual moving away of members to other parts. Baptisms, 7 ; Marriage, 1 ; Burials, 9. WATERVILLE No report received. (March 1st, 1900.) WAY S MILLS AND BARNSTON. The Rev. N. M. Bayne reports : — Having been in this Mission only two and a half months my report must necessarily be brief, limited to the apparent condition of things, with perhaps impressions as to seem- ing prospects. On the list of those who come within the range of the Church's work at Way's Mills there are one hundred and thirteen names, at Barnston fifty. Of these the average number attending the Services is respectively thirty-five and ten. Communicants have averaged respectively seven- teen and six. In Way's Mills the attendance at Worship has increased slowly, and so apparently has interest and devotion. The latter improvement is doubtless due in some degree to the building up of the choir, which is now a very good one, new members having been added and practising being done faithfully every week. At Barnston, although attendance and interest have somewhat increased the outlook is not bright. Many unfortunate events seem to have followed one upon the other in the history of this congregation tending to destroy its life and work for God's glory. However, it would seem as if the darkest days must be past, so that I trust, if those members who remain will but co-operate heartily, reports indicative of real work and true progress may yet be written. For some months previous to my arrival, the Guild of the Church of the Epiphany, Way's Mills, had lain dormant. It has since been revived and is being carried on quite energetically by about fifteen members. The ladies of this .^u 125 organization deserve much credit, for having borne almost all the expenses of repairs on this Church and the Par- sonage for some years past, both of which are in good condition at present. The Church at Barnston is in need of inexpensive repairing of the roof and foundation. The Sunday Schools have not been open for some time. It appears that this most important work can be carried on here with great difficulty. Very few children live near either Church, so that it will be necessary to try to estab- blish schools in central places outside, where the greatest numbers can be gathered together. I cannot fail to add that since coming here my family and I have received much kindness from the people of the Mission. On arriving it was found that the more neces- sary of our house-keeping things had been delayed. Kind neighbours therefore took-us-in and made us quite at home, until we where able to move into the Parsonage. All our belongings were also brought up from the station free of charge, whilst a few days ago a number very thoughtfully came and piled into the shed the winter's wood. Besides these things we received gifts of vegetables, apples and oats. Such kindness is a help in every way, not least as indicating goodness of heart, which one rejoices to know exists.

The Veil, Archdeacon Roe reports : — On the first April, 1894, 1 succeeded the Rev, J. C, Cox in the charge of the Mission of Brompton and Windsor Mills ; and on first August. 1899, I passed on the charge of the same to the Rev. E, A. W. King. It will not be unsuit- able that I should place on record here some brief account ot the progress made during those five years. 126 Mr. Cox's book of Parish statistics handed to me on his loaving us makes the families in the cont^regation of St Georifts's, Windsor Mills, to have been then twenty-nine in number. Of these three have been broken up and dispers- ed by deaths and we have lost four by removals, twenty- two still remaining with us. Of these twenty-two, how- ever, four have failed to connect themselves with us in any way. They ought not to have been on the roll at all. Of the eighteen remaining, six down to that period took no in- terest in the Church, but have since waked up to a better sense of duty, and are now, most of them, among our most reliable people. That left us with about a dozen families, certainly not more, who felt it their duty take their share in the work of promoting the interests of Christ's King- dom in this part of the world. However, there were eighteen families on the roll. To these eighteen families, seventeen have been added, who all take some part in the Church's work ; ancl i ine in- dividuals not belonging to any particular family, some of them among the most devoted adherents of the Church. So that where we had eighteen families on the roll five years ago, we have now thirty-eight, or more than double the number. If it be asked, where did these new families and indivi- duals come from ? Are they merely so many Church fami- lies who have moved into this town from other places, im- poverishing the parishes they have left ? In part it is so, but this does not apply to them all. Some of them are fa- milies and individuals grown up in the place, who former- ly took no interest in the Church or in religion, but now take a real and deep interest. For example, I have before me five names. Three of them are sisters, who five years ago lived within the limits of the congregation, but knew nothing about the Church, but are now devoted Church members, attend our Services regularly, are unfailing com- municants, and pay towards the Church's support. The other two are mothers of families, who in like manner once thought little of religion and seldom if ever came to Church, but now feel it of the first importance to secure the benefits of our holy religion for themselves and their children. I think it safe to sa}, relying on my own knowl- edge of things as well as on statistical evidence, that the Church of England is more than twice as strong in num- bers in the town of Windsor Mills to-day as she was five r' 127 years ago ; and that uot simply owing to the growth of business in the town attracting work-pt»ople, but duo to healthy grov/th in sincere religion. During these five years we have had si>riou8 losses of some of our best people by deaths and removals. Among these 1 may mention Henry Seaby, Mrs. Walter Young, James Holmes, the families of James McHardy, David Kelley, Mrs. Fields, Benjamin Riches, J. C. Grant, Harold McLean and others. These were among our most faithful adherents, whose loss we have felt deeply, and yet we have grown in all the elements which constitute parochial strength. This growth appears most conspicuously in our com- municants' roll. Mr. Cox left me a list of nineteen com- municants in St. George's Church, representing nine fami. lies and two individuals. My own list shows the names of eighty-nine who have communicated during the last five years not counting visitors. Of these eighty-nine, we have lost eight by death and twenty-six by removals. I have marked thirteen as *• withdrawn " — persons who used to communicate, but have ceased to do so. This leaves us with a present list of forty-two regular communicants. Our communicant strength is more than twice as great as it stood five years ago. I pass now to the Sunday School. There are in the homes of the congregation of St. George's, Windsor, one hundred and twenty baptized children under the age of fifteen years, one-half of whom at least on the average ought to be under regular instruction in our Sunday School The Superintendent of the Sunday School, Mr. Alton Rowland, reports to me that there are fifty-six chil- dren on the roll from twenty-four families. Of these, forty- four are marked as attending regularly and twelve irregu- larly. This is, I think, very encouraging. 1 may add that it is a great comfort to me, on retiring from Windsor Mills, to leave the Sunday School work in the hands of one so devoted to the young as the Rev. E. A. W. King is well known to be. I pass now to speak of the important matter of Church finance. This falls naturally under two heads — first, pro- viding funds to meet the expenses of our own Parish, and next, responding to the calls for help in Church Missionary work from those outside our Parish. The question of Church finance is always a difficulty. 128 The principles which ought, in my judgment, to rule in the raising ol'monoy for rolijcious purposes, I had tho privilege of setting before this conference in the allniver^ary sermon of last year, which was printed in full in the HherbrtMtke Gazette. Therefore I shall say nothing more on that head. This much, however, I may say with the approval of all ('hristians, that all money raised to be offered to God should be raised on religious principles. For the last live years, St. George's, Windsor Mills, con- tribuled the sum of i|l,4{]2, of which $l,12r> was for Parish expenses, and !ft807, or about twenty-two per cent, was sent away to help our brethren outside. We have had in the Windsor congregation a good deal of diffi<'u!ty in providing the necessary funds to delray Parish expenses, —a dilliculty altog«!ther created by the ir- religious methods of raising money lor Church objects in vogue in the religious world, and which, previous to my in- cumbency, were to a certain extent in use in the Mission of Windsor Mills. To provide money for the promotion of God's work, methods are resorted to which no respectable man or woman would use or permit to be used in their own private life or business. These methods, I need not name, thev are all understood. These all ceased in Wind- sor Mills on my appointment. Everyone who knew me knew that 1 had been lighting all my life against these un- christian ways of raising money for God's work, and they knew it was in vain to ask me to sanction them. I would not allow the Church of God to be soiled by such proceed- ings. It was claimed that we could not live without them ; but we have lived without them. W^e have paid our Parish expenses honestly and honourably in hard cash, out of our own pockets, and I have the Parish out of debt and with all its remaining expenses paid in full without having resorted to any one of those dishonourable subter- fuges invented to inveigh people outside the Churd well. On the list ol' subscribers to that system there were at the close ol' my incumbency twenty-seven names, of whom eighteen pay well and regu- larly, and nine are in arrears. Besides these twenty-seven, there are on the list of Parishioners twenty-thret; names of Church members who do not subscribe to the Envelope Fund. Most of them, I think, would subscribe if they were insisted to do so, in a kind and friendly spirit. How- ever this requires oo-operation and perseverance. The congregation is much indebted to Mr. Alton Rowland for his faithful labours, amid many discouragements, in be- half of a healthy system of nnauces in St. George's Church. The above remarks on the difficulties of Church finance do not apply to the same extent to the congregation of Christ Chureh, Brompton. Here the assessment is always ready, and at least if it is not punctually paid to the day, the money is always ready and only needs to be asked for. The old subscription list system still prevails here, and as it works fairly well, I have made no effort to change it. The other Parish expenses are always cheerfully paid, and the Church and Burial-Ground are kept in good repair. The good women of the congregation have a religious or- ganization of their own called the Ladies' 'Aid or the La- dies' Circle, through which they both contribute a good deal of money for religious purposes and also cultivate kindly social relations among the members of the congre- gation. The young people came to me this last winter, and in the most loyal spirit asked my sanction to their forming a similar organizadon for themselves, through which they might meet bocially, and under a few simple rules drawn up by me might have social enjoyment under the sanction of religion. I was much pleased with the whole spirit in which this matter was carried through. The members of these two Guilds make an offering at each meet- ing of a small sum of money for religious purposes. I feel sure that under Mr. King this very simple and loyal or- ganization will be an instrument for good, far beyond w^hatwas hitherto accomplished. The Christ Church (Brompton) congregation raised during the five years upon which I am reporting $1,426.31, of which 11,207 was spent upon our own Parish, and $220 9 aPMi* 130 was sent away to help in the Propagation of the Gospel outside our Parish. The two congregations thus paid very nearly the same amount each, and jointly close upon |3,000 in money during the five years, not reckoning in this what was done by the "Woman's Auxiliary, and in various other ways. The Ladies' Circle undertook of their own accord several costly works, — the putting a furnace under the Church, fencing* the Burial-Grround, roofing the Church anew^ The money for these important works was provided by these good wo- men out of their own means, freely given without calling in any other objectionable modes of raising funds, upon which I have animadverted above. During the five years last past there have been very few changes in the Brompton congregation. To the list of nine- teen families left me by Mr. Cox three have been added, and one family has reftioved. To the list of communicants fifteen have been added, ten have removed and three have died. The Sunday School and Bible Class have gathered in practically all the children in the settlement. We are greatly indebted to Mr. Silas Varney, who has ably super- intended the Sunday School when I could not be there, and to several other faithful helpers, whose names, I trust, are in the Book of Life. On the whole, I think the progress made in Christ Church. Brompton, though not perhaps so striking as that of the Church in the busy thriving town of Windsor, has been quite as satisfactory and encouraging. A Presbyterian gentleman, who has had an intimate knowledge from the first settlement, from which the Brompton Church congre- gation has been drawn, said to me lately that no one who had the knowledge that he had of the religious condition of the country then and now, could help feeling how truly good a work the Church of England had been privileged to do in moulding the characters and conduct of the people in that settlerrient, and making them the God-fearing and religious body of people which they are. When we hear such a testimony as this, borne by a good and godly man to our work, we may well thank God and take courage. The Rev. Ernest A. Willoughby King reports : — I was appointed by the Lord Bishop to take charge on August first. On that day was introduced to the new 131 Mission field by the Ven. Archdeacon Roe, D.D., and as his successor in Christ Church, Brompton, and St. George's Church, Windsor Mills. My duties commenced thor(>alter, but actual residence not until August 20th. This report, therefore, refers only to the four months from August to Advent, but the financial statement concerns the whole ecclesiastical year. The customary order of Services and Sunday School instruction has been maintained. The aver- age attendance differs but little from previous records. A better proportionate representation of those enrolled as members attends in Brompton than in Windsor Mills. This is partly to be accounted for by factory occupation, which involves much night and even — I am sorry to say — Sunday work, as compared with the exactions of farming-, [t is but a common and just observation, however, that were all who ought for their own soul's ivelfare to keep up regularly the practice of public worship, so vitally important to their spir- itual life, our Churches would always be full to overflowing. It is a cause for thankful satisfaction to observe through- out this Mission the effects of that careful training in the system and principles of our beloved Church, which any one would be sure to find, who was fortunate enough to succeed so zealous, energetic, learned and godly a Mission- ary as our Venerable Archdeacon is so well known to be. Both Churches were beautifully decorated for the Harvest Festival by the skilful hands of willing workers in conjunc- tion with donors of fruits, grains, vegetables and flowers. The Ladies' Guild and Young People's Guild of Christ Church continue in operation, and the Woman's Auxiliary of St. George's is renewing its usefulness. Both Sunday Schools are exceptionally blessed in their excellent super- intendents and teachers, as also are the congregations in the earnest and capable services of all four wardens, whilst to organists and choirs they also owe a debt of gratitude. A worthy member of St. George's choir, who indeed at the time was acting as organist, Mr. A. A. White, bravely and promptly volunteered and was accepted for military service in South Africa, The best wishes and prayers of the congregation, and of his many other friends go out, I am sure, after him and his comrades in arms, with devout hopefulness.

' To the members of the Church in the Diocese of Quebec it is already pretty generally known that shortly iifter the decease of the late Dr. Robert Hamilton, it was resolved, at a public meeting of Churchmen held in the City of Quebec, that a Memorial should be erected which should in some fitting way commemorate the name of this great Churchman and Benefac- tor, who throughout half a century had done so much and given so much to extend and build up the Kingdom of our Lord, more particularly within the bounds of our own Diocese. Possessed of great wealth, ever conscientiously regarded by him as a sacred trust, Mr. Hamilton had throughout this long period gladly and most liberally helped to build our Churches and Parsonages, maintain Poor Schools, found and foster Local Endowments, aid the Clergy, through the medium of the Church Society, in the education of their sons and daughters at our Colleges, generously support year by year the Mission, Pension and various other Funds of the Society, and respond to every special appeal of a deserving nature with manifest gladness. As some of his laru'est gifts had been made in aid of Bishoi»'s College, and Bishop's College School, Lennoxville, it was decided at the aforesaid meeting that the Memorial to lie erected should have connection with this Institution; more especially as both College and School had outgrown their then present accommodation. Plans, at once admirable anii(', were procured from Me-isrs. Cox and Amos, Architects, of Mont- real, calculated to transform the old building, by piece-meal Ivuilt, into a harmonious whole, and an imposing pile, and at the same time furnii^h the conveniences most urgently needed. These internal improvements included a large and handsome Dining Hall for the School, and another for the Students of the College, larger and an increased number of Lecture Rooms in the College, a more spacious and attractive Library and Read- ing Room, a better Lodge for the Principal, additional Bed- Rooms, Baths, Ollices, Ac, &c. The estimated cost was $20,(X)0. In a memorial work of this character it was of course naturally decided (under any circumstances advisable) that no debt should beincuried; and that operations should proceed i>nly so far and fast as funds in hand or promised warranted. For convenience sake the work was divided into three Sections, Northern, Southern and Central, at estimated costs of $11,000, $5,5(K) and $3,500 respectively. In the Spring of 189'J an appeal was made for gifts, or subscriptions ext«^nding over three years, and by July of that year the response met with warranted the undertaking of Section 1. We are pleased to say that this Sec- tion is now completed at a cost of $11,500. It could not how- 15 226 ever have been carried to completion had not the Lord Bishop of the Diocese generously signiliod his willingness to give an- other 81,000 (makiu},' 83,000 in all from his Lordship), which he had intended to devote to a later portion of the work : and had not many gifts, designed for Sections 2 and 3 as well as Section 1, been absorbed in the tirst outlay. At this junction Mr. Petry, the popular Head-Master of the School, and Mr. Frith, Bursar of the College, visited Montreal, and obtained from some of the Old Boys and other friends of the School, the sura of $1,100, to be applied to any ])art of the work specially beneficial to the School. This condition was easy of fulfilment, their handsome Dining PLiU having far exceeded this amount in cost. It would l)e a becoming expression of loyalty to and love for their Alma Mater if the entire expense of this Hall were assumed by the Old Bo\ s. Every gift made for this spe- cial purpose would be so a])plied, and thus liberate for subse- quent work its equivalent already absorbed in the construction of their fine Hall, just as the Bishop's last gift of $1,000 has been set free by their gift of $1,1H0, to be applied as originally intended. It was now feared that further work would have to be postponed for some indefinite time awaiting more funds — the Clergy having left the canvass of their Parishes until this Avinter. ITappily the promise of an anonymous gift of $4,000, supplemented by the Bishop's gift and subscriptions now be- ginning to come in from ihe Parishes, justifies the undertaking of Section 2 as soon as possible. This still leaves the Central Section, which includes a portion of front elevation, the Tower, Entrance Hall, Library, &c., unprovided for ; so that we shall still need, including Architects' Fees and unforeseen extras, quite $4,000 to complete our design. It is very much to be de- sired, for construction purposes, to mention no other reason, that Sections 2 and 3 should be proceeded with simultaneously. As has been observed Subscription Lists are beginning to come in from various Parishes and Missions. Some of these Lists, by their very length, testify to the deep personal interest taken by the Clergy in the work, and also to the sentiment of grati- tude felt by their people towards their late great Benefactor, Mr. Hamilton. It was the intention of the Central Board to have tlie Lists printed in detail in the present Report ; as, how- ever, the majority of the Clergy have not yet completed their canvas, the Board has instructed their Secretary to postpone the publication of all Lists until next year, and in the present volume to acknowledge private (U)nations, and in block sm/is the amount covered by Subscription Lists so far received. It is with deep gratitude that we here acknowledge the promise of £300 from that noble and ever generous Society, the S.P.C.K., towards this work. (Signed) A. J. Balfour, Hon. Sec'y R. H.

The following? is a statement of the work done by our Association durina: tho past year : Our membership is about the same, our members being 124. As decided at Inst annual meetin«]f, the annual sale was held later in the autumn, it having been thought advisable to change the date for many reasons. It took place on the 26th October. The receipts were much the same as usual. One special, ten monthly and two general meetings were held, the attendance at the latter meetings being fifteen and seventeen respectively. The annual coUectioji for the ('hurch Society was again undertaken by some of our members. Miss Tilley Kennedy having resigned from the Execu- tive Committee last May, St. Paul's has been unrepre.'^ent- ed at our committee meetings. A donation of children's clothing has been received from Mrs. Webb, and sent to the family of one of our Clergymen. The gift has been gratefully acknowledged. No funds being available at the October general meet- ing to meet the applications received, a resolution was passed empowering the committee to vote certain sums of money at their next meeting. We have endeavored to give a favorable response to all appeals, but owing to some requests being for objects out- side our work, we have reluctantly had to refuse assist- ance. We tender our sincere thanks to all those friends who have kindly contributed money or clothing for our work. Helen A. SHvvEUi, President. Caroline M.
