No other six years broughtinto the church so many men of promise, who afterwardsbecame officers of the church, making it a power in thecommunity and among the churches of the Commonwealth,We thank God that you have lived to see prominent resultsfrom your labors here and elsewhere. We rejoice with youto-day ; not only with you, but with her, also, who fifty yearsago chose to share the lot of one of Gods servants, andwithout whose loving help and faithfulness and able co-op-eration thoS^labors could not have been so fruitful andrich in blessing to the churches of our Lord. Some ofyour friends send with this a pecuniary token of esteemwhich we wish you to accept. If it was as large as the loveto you which prompts it, you could not find room enoughto receive it. Fraternally yours, A. C. Osborne, FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH NORTH ADAMS, MASS.
