Our town was again saddened laist Friday aftern'oon w;hen it wvas 1earn ed that Mrs. Mabel McCord, wife of Rev. L. B. McCordl, pastor of the Presbyterian church, had p~assedl into the great beyond.

May I expresL's through your paper my very deep app~reciation of the many tokens of love, words of sym athy and dleeds of kindness extend ed to me b~y the good people of Man ning in the hour of my great be reavement. TIhe kindness of my I friiendls has greatly lightened the load fsorrow. The Iholy Spirit leads me to the words: "Thou will keep him in perfect peace, wvhose aind is stayed on thee; because he trusteth in thee.'' I know that God has pro vided for his own in heaven, and my dlevotedc wife is now inheriting the p~romnises. She is nowv in actual pos session and enjoyment of "that in heritance which is incorruptible and undlefiledl, and fadleth not away." Her upsp~eakable joy greatly diminishes my sorrow, but my sorrow (doea not dliminlish her joy. L. B. McCordl. Modern Substittites for Christianity.
