n, for many eyes were full of tears, the people
sang--

"Tapwa meyoo ootaskewuk,
Ispemik ayahchik," etc.

"There is a land of pure delight,
Where saints immortal reign."

William was a sweet singer, and joined heartily with the rest in singing
several verses of that grand old hymn. We had a presentiment that the
end was not far off, but we little thought, as we looked into his
radiant face, and heard his clear scriptural testimony, and his longings
for rest and heaven, that this was to be the last Lovefeast in which our
dear brother was to be with us. Ere another similar service was held,
William Memotas had gone sweeping through the gates, washed in the blood
of the Lamb.

James Cochrane, a Class Leader, said,--

"I have great reason to bless God for the privileges and mercies I have
had from him. I am so glad to be with you to-day in his house. I try
to arrange all my huntings and journeys so as to be present at all of

give me His Holy Spirit to help me to follow Christ's example and to
keep all of God's commandments. May I, too, prove faithful."

Mary Cook, a very old woman, who has had to endure persecution for
Christ's sake, spoke next. She said:

"I am very glad to be here once more. I have many pagan relatives who
have no feeling of friendship towards me, because I am a follower of
Jesus. But He is my Friend, so it is all right. I have been very sick,
and thought that God was going to take me home to heaven. That thought
made me very happy in my sickness. My poor little room often seemed
light with the presence of my Lord. I love to dwell with God's
