Snell, conducted his final service before his early departure to the Homeland, en route for a parish in Jersey. Mr Snell's valedictory will be long remembered for its ring of devotion and sincerity in support of the greatest of all causes, that of Christianity. Before concluding the service in the evening, Mr Snell said that he had asked the vestry’s acceptance of a communion service, one similar to those held on the battlefields in France during the Great War. This gift was supplemental to a pair of beautiful silver candlesticks Mr Snell had earlier donated to use on the altar of St. Mary’s.
