Other members of the family were Salvationists or doing good work in other churches. The farewell meetings were well attended and Miss Fairbrother gave addresses at both services. The songsters sang her favourite anthems. Major Neeve in the evening made a solemn charge, and a very impressive service ended with the singing of the consecration hymn “Take my Life and Let it Be.” Salvationists and all her friends will wish Miss Fairbrother success in her new sphere of work.
