     Zion Church, which is shown in the illustration on page 21, was erected about 
     
     the year 1860, under the following circumstances: various families, known as 
     
     Secessionists, worshipping in the Athenaeum, and in some of the other churches, 
     
     Free and Kirk,ymade up their minds to have a church of their own; they held meet: 
     
     ings, organized, and built the church. The Rev. A. Falconer, now of Pictou, was 
     
     the first pastor, and remained until about the year :1869; the church was then vacant 
     
     some time until the Rev. J. M. McLeod was called from Pictou also; immense strides 
     
     occured during the 20 odd years of his pastorate. The departure of Mr. McLeodtfior 
     
     Vancouver, left the church vacant some months, until a call, unanimous and hearty, 
     
     was extended to the Rev. David Sutherland, then of Richmond, N. 8., and accepted. 
     
     From his first appearance and preaching the present pastor wo'n Zion Church people 
     
     (unco'canny as they are). .Organized instrumental choir, electric lights, frescoed 
     
     ceilings, upholstered pews, and the many other well—ordered appointments of this 
     
     fine chureh would combine to make the Douglasses, Mutches, Lockerbys, Frasers, 
     
     Lairds and others of 1860 stare, if they were with us to-day.
