***Writing from Dorchester, Mass., Sarah J. Davis says: "Allow
me to present my congratulations on the celebration of the thirtieth
anniversary of the Christian Nation, and your untiring zeal in bringing
about this result. You have not sown sparingly
t ask in behalf of a friend another copy of November fourth,
which contains that admirably true letter by R. Holmes, on the "Ulster
Problem." My friend, who is an Irish lady, finds it difficult to enlighten
her U. S. friends as to the true conditions in Ireland, so desires the aid
of Mr. Holmes' letter. I notice witb regret the admitted hand of Time
on the -Rev. Robert M. Sommerville. I am so sorry he feels any limitations.
It seems as only yesterday I saw him in our R. P. Church in St.
John, N. B., as he was starting for the other side to enter upon bis
studies for the University. Then the pleasure felt by that then flourishing
congregation, when on his return he occupied for the first time
the pulpit. My interest in bim is somewhat due to tbe fact tbat his
noble father—pioneer in N. B. & X. S. of R. P. principles, baptized me
and as mv father's friend, won my love.
