The following resolutions were passed by the Woman's Missionary union of the Presbyterian church on the death of Mrs. Fred Williams: Whereas. God in His all-wise prov idence has seen fit to call our sister, Mrs. Fred Williams, from her work on earth to the peaceful rest and re wards of heaven, we realize that a beautiful life has gone out. She fell asleep In the faith of Him who said, I am the resurrection and the life, he that belteveth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live. Be It there fore resolved: First, That while we bow In humble submission to the will of our Heaven ly Father, we realize that He makes no mistakes; but we mourn the loss of her gentle lovable personality, and her Intelligent Interest In Missions, She loved the church will NU1 her heart, and responded gladly to every call made upon her for Its advance ment. Second. That It Is as a devoted christian woman that we like to think of her. She loved her family and home as only a christian mother ran. and no self-denial in service for them was ever too great for her to make in their behalf. Third. That our warmest sympathy goes to her husband, parents, broth ers and sisters, and with increasing tenderness to the little children who will so sorely miss her care and lov ing ministry. Mrs. R. J.
