It is wonderful how a person can go away from a. place for yours and when they returm although a strangeness seems to hover over everything. still there is a feeling of “ home " about it, for to me this city ‘was my home in Childhood’s years. and from here I first turned my steps towards Canada. As it is my inten- tion to spend some weeks in Notting- ham during my stay in England, I shall not attempt to describe its beau- ties, or factories, its people, or histor- \ icul buildings, but do so later on. A, AL. the train sped out of the Midland station, and in a few short minutesfiwp \verp 1_-11sh- iug over bridges, and through long, dark tunnels, to a little village called Old Dall)y. \Vhile on the cars l was reminded that, my own dear father was the contractor for this very line, and I remembered of how I used to drive with him to the “works,” and stay with him at the farm hnuse where he boarded. Oh. the changes since then 1 I recall many with sorrow, and yet, others have been full of happiness and pleasure. In about forty minutes we drew up at the little, depot, whose platform 1 had not stepped on fur nearly seventeen years, and yet the scene was practically unchanged.

And now for :1 description of Old Dnlby. The village itself lies in a, sheltered nook closed in by woods and trees, and gives to a visitor at, least the idea that this must he the quietest and happiest, spot on (with. t 1: “ The Grove,” that is the name of the house where I am the guest, looks down from 21‘ hill upon the grassy slope beneath, where, nestled in the heart of Dulby, lies some hundreds of homes, which, in by-gone years, helped to give shelter to such notables as Oliver Cromwell, Dick Turpin, and the “ Bloody Jeffers,” known in history for the cruel treatment of his follow- ers. However, We may refer to these people again, sufl‘ice it to say the middle ages are unknown now, and its darkness is wiped out by the kindness of Christian England and Civilization. 0 our eyes above the thatched cottages, and some others of more modern style, we see in the dis- tance the Vale of Belvoir and its Castle, the seat of the Duke of Rut- lands. I shall describe this charming spot in my next letter, as there are other places I have Vlsited already and pl'efgr t9 give_t-hem in turn. _ kn“- _- ,, “DalbyoHall” is very ancient, and the records in hand: show it to be over a thousand years old, it having been restored from time to time. by its possessors. and the present ownel has turned it into a. beautiful mansion of modern style. I am told there are several underground passages that used to he in vogue when the nobility of other days lived there and these caverns were used for hiding places in titnes of danger. ... ‘ n I,,,J Cromwell lived all through England, and as Dalby is only a few miles from Nottingham, which in olden days was fortified and its castle used as a refuge, at Whose gates the battle of “ Standard Hill ” was fought, the chances are he used the “ Hall " as a. rendezvous for himself and nobles, so that they might live some part of their life in supposed happiness and quietude, and yet there was not much peace to he found, for the cunning robber of ancient days, Dick Turpin, of whom I have already spoken, used to come at the dead of night doing his despei‘z‘ite 1deeds, and “-3” Runs "'D “ V “ V ‘ ' ' a â€"-* "* n. r havmg his horse shod backwards was able to leave without a trace of his whereabouts. The church itself is very old. but was restored some yeavsago. How- ever, there are parts of it that prove its age, and that the nobility not only lived, but, died and are buried here, for right in the chancel there are sev- eral sarcophagi, the lids of weich are carved marble, with life-size bodies of lords and ladies who fell asleep centur- ies ago, as recorded by the tablets on the walls. The statues are in u re- cumbent position. and bespeuk the man as a. soldier of high rank, the Whole armour being shown, even to the spurs on his boots and the sword at his side, and the lady is dressed in Elizabethan collar and fzishibns suit- Across the Ocean. able to the aqemnd even little children of some “great” family me interred in the same tumb, and the place gives one an idea. of Weirdness and solemni- ty as you gaze up this hallowed aisle and see the sign of the dead amongst thg living. For a country church it is very pretty inside. The floor is of flags, and to a. Canadian it appears chilly, as the furnaces. common to our land, are not used in this part. Still it has its good points, and one finds it acool spot in summer. It has a. nice ipe organ. and the able organist, Iiss Goodwin, touches the keys with such perfection that one cannot help but1 recall “ The Lost Chord " and the sing- ing of that “ Grand Amen,” which is so often chanted in the service of the Established Church that it reminds us of the harmony of Heaven, for have we not come to a, haven of rest where our hearts and souls can be refreshed and where all earthly discords are drowned in the purity and simplicity of sacred music and the Gospel of Jesus Christ, the same in all ages and climes and the satisfying hope of all who trust in Him. Prayers are read every day in the year in this church and many things may or may not be done according to the discretion of the worthy Vicar, the Rev. Murray Sy- monds, who is in command, the dis- pensation of the rites not being under the full jurisdiction of the Bishop. , ,,A_L wound, Which quickly brought my body to the ground : As sure in time that she Will have her due.

S. of this lace. Services were to have been con ucted by Mrs. McKay of Toronto, but, unfortunately Mrs. McKay was taken ill, so could not be present. However, her place was supplied by Mrs. J. B. \Vilhuot of Toronto, who conducted an afternoon service very efiiciently. Mrs. VVillmot showed the progress of missionary work in Quebec, B. 0., Japan, China, and other places, pointing out at the same Lime the need of further efforts to spread the Gospel among the vast host; of souls yet. in darkness. She ap- pealed very strongly to her audience to support, and encourage mission work A IL. -Ackfin ‘Uf.m u..,um.v.....m Wei u at home and abroad.

WoodaFd.§ former resident of this place, died at his home in Stouffville on the 25th of May. A large mmiber of friends and relatives followed his remains to their last rest- ing place in Stoufiville cemetery. Mr. and M18. T. Klinck and family have. the sympathy of their friends at this time. Mrs. Klinck is a daughter of Mr. VVoodard. The Sabbath School will not have their tea meeting this year.
