WORDS OF APPRECIATION It is with some trepidation that we attempt to thank everyone for the contribu- tion which each has made to this book. It is nearly an impossible task to remember everyone to whom we have written or talked regarding the churches in western Prince County. If a name has been omitted inadvertantly, we apologize since we want everyone to know how much we have appreciated his or her help and encouragement. The following people come to mind as particuarly helpful in the composition of this book: Robert Shaw, The Rev. Stewart B. Russell, Mrs. Blair (Lorraine) Warren, Mrs. Hedley (Bertha Bennett) Palmer, Mrs. Edwin (Hilda) Ellsworth, Wilbert and Muriel McInnis, Stanford Green, Rev. Heber Colbourne, Rev. George Beals, Mrs. Lloyd (Jean) Wilkie, Mrs. Seymour (Elizabeth) Sentner, Mrs. John (Mildred) Thomson, Mrs. Harry (Ethel) Thomson, Keith William Pratt, Mrs. James (Ruby) Palmer, John Burton Rix, Mrs. Charles (Lillian) Yeo, Mrs. Keith (Myra) Williams, Mrs. Warren (Ruth) Goss, Mrs. Etta (Thomson) Rix, Mrs. Allison (Edith) Raynor, Natalie Easter Dockrill Davis, John Cousins, Esther Thomson, Leith Thomson, and Allan Shaw. Special thanks to David and Edna Gould, Exeter, Devonshire, England, for the pictures and research pertaining to the Bible Christians. Several of the ministers’ pictures were loaned to us by the Montrose United Church from their collection. The typing of this manuscript was completed by Mrs. Claine (Ellen) Campbell of O’Leary.
