History of Zion Church 2:

ginal founders and we believe, a good church-man and citi- zen ; others, mothers and wives, were Mrs. James Mac- Eachern, Mrs. L. MacDonald, Mrs. W. M. Allen, Mrs. John Coflin, Mrs. George C. Crawford, Miss Mary Curran; then in the list of young people “who went higher” were Edna B. Crawford, Margaret Muriel Taylor, Annie [-1. Bruce, Lavinia Boyce, Catherine MacKay, and Ellen Eunice Fowle ; the tire- less sleeper surely and sadly remembered Zion’s people in that fateful year ; and gathered a harvest of souls for the gamer that is never full.

The death roll of Zion church for the year 1907, was un- usually large, ranging from near the century mark, ninety- one years, of Mr. James Patterson, down to a baby in arms of just two weeks, blossoming to eternity ; wee Marjorie Ross. New Year’s Day summoned James Patterson, ninety- one years old, before the bar ofjudgment, after a stay of four score years and eleven on earth ; his last act was a gift of$2oo, untrammeled with conditions, to the Zion he worship- ped in ; William Wyatt, aged eighty years, a constant member, attendant, and supporter of the church of God, within Zion’s walls; Mrs. Houle, the beloved wife of A. Houle, Esq., of the P. E. I. R.; Mrs. Houle was a tireless worker in all church organizations, prayer meeting and Sabbath school, and with her husband and son, never missed a service, save through some sufficient cause ; she is much missed. Mrs. Elizabeth Ferguson, a long-time, patient sufferer, laid her burden down at seventy-four, folded the tired hands, stilled the weary feet, and reposed on the merits of her Redeemer, leaving many relatives and friends to mourn their loss. George Walker. four score years and one, a member of the civil service of Canada, and elder of many years ; a worker in all church services, and up to three score years at least, a busy actor in all the ordinances of the house of God. A long— service medal attests the gratitude and esteem of the country he served so well, for over thirty years. W. John Fraser,
