will be chiefly devoted to public religi

Lord*s Supper will be administered oU
the Sabbath*, and the congregation dis
missed about 10 o’clock on Monday
morning. The Presbytery would be
highly gratified to have the pleasure of
mpfeting many of their friends on this *
occasion. This gratification they hope
to enjoy. They trust and believe that
