At a meeting of Wanganui Presbytery held at Palmerston on Tuesday last, the Moderator (Rev. Mr Jutson)'perpetrated one of the best bulls we have noticed for a long time. The Presbytery was arranging for the settlement of a Minister for Bulls and it was agreed to sustain a call to the Rev. Evan Evans, of Auckland province. To facilitate the settlement the Presbytery arranged for its next regular meeting to be held at Bulls at a suitable time to induct Mr Evans.

But the Woods of all woods to be lauded, (You all will agree, I am sure), Is the Woods to whom mankind’s indebted, For the only Great Peppermint Cure Push the town along by giving your local drapers your trade and. try Watchorn Stiles and Co. for the very best values.*
