of faith. On Ist November, 1876, Rev. Mr. Duncan accepted a call to St. Andrew’s church, Halifax, and was accordingly loosed from his charge of St. James’ church, Charlottetown.

Three months after Mr. Duncan’s removal to Halifax, Rev. Kenneth McLennon, M. A., of Onta- rio, accepted a call from St. James’ church and was inducted as their pastor on 3Ist January, 1877. Shortly after Mr. McLennon’s induction, and mainly through his influence, the congregation c0m~ menced the erection of their present handsome church edifice. It is built of Nova Scotia free stone, faced with the red island stone, and with its tall, graceful spire presents a very fine appearance and reflects great credit upon the minister, who had not a little to do with the design of the edifice, as well as upon the architect, the builders and the congrega— tion. It is, without doubt, the finest Protestant place of worship in the province, both as regards architectural design and workmanship. The church was completed in less than two years after the work was undertaken. It stands upon the same site as the old church did, the latter having been removed to an adjoining site. The grounds around the church and manse are planted with ornamental trees, the lawn and the walks are neatly kept, and the whole appearance of the church property is highly pleasing. Amongst his many other good qualities, Mr. McLennon possessed a highly cultivated taste, and he did much towards beautifying that beautiful homelike spot.
