     During the past two ycais the Board has lost four ofits 
     
     members by death, namely, Brothers ]. D. Seaman, W. “7. Stanley, 
     
     L. E I’rowse and George E. Full. Brother Seaman had been 
     
     most active asa local preacher, and Bible Class teacher ever 
     
     since his early manhood, and in his later years as leader of teach- 
     
     er training classes. In connection with the Board itself, be is 
     
     greatly missed because of his wise counsel and progressive spirit. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Brother Stanley had been for many years a pillar in the church 
     
     he so much loved, in the capacity of Sunday School Superinten- 
     
     dent, was Secretary of the Board of Trustees from 1904 to 1918, 
     
     and had always taken a deep interest in the welfare of the church 
     
     generally. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Last December the Church lost a generous supporter when 
     
     Brother Prowse was taken. In his younger days, he took a keen 
     
     interest in Sunday School work as Bible Class teacher and later 
     
     as Superintendent in the former Grace Methodist Church. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Brother Full passed suddenly away on April 30th last, after a 
     
     long life of devoted service for the Kingdom of God. He excell- 
     
     ed as a. men‘s Bible class teacher, in which capacity he labored 
     
     for many years in the former First Methodist Church. He was 
     
     also very deeply interested in the missionary cause, and gave 
     
     liberally for its support. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Brother E. H. Beer’s resignation. which had been tendered at 
     
     a previous meeting, was very regretfully accepted on October the 
     
     9th 1925, and now only sixteen members are left of the original 
     
     twenty-one appointed at the time of the amalgamation of Grace 
     
     Methodist with the First Methodist in 1917.
