Making reference to his recent mission in Barrie, Mr. Brown not- 'ed that leaders and- members of every evangelical communion had turned in, showing that the true spirit of Jesus transcended denominationalism.

The genealogy of the Hurlburts, dating back to 1685, is in printed form and is a most interesting story in itself. It is related that Thomas, the first of the line, came across the Atlantic in that year. He was a professional soldier and. blacksmith and came to America to build a fortication at Say- brook, Connecticut. It is further related that he came over with one Lion Gardiner, contractor who at one time was sent to Holland by the Prince of Orange. He came to America in connection with a Con- necticut patent issued by Charles II. Reading on it is stated that Thomas Hurlburt in 1637 was wounded by an arrow in combat with the Indians, and so on.
