EPSOM A beautiful spring day brought large numbers out to the services on Sunday (Easter.) The music and choirs were all that could be desired. In the morning service at Bethesda Sunday School the attendance nearly touched 50, whilst at Epsom the at- tendance was almost record breaking when 71 attended. Owing to an epidemic of sickness at Utica the at- tendance was not quite up to the average for so many families in the neighbourhood were affected. On. Thursday evening the Young People of Epsom are organizing. It is hoped that the meeting called will be well attended as so much depends on the initial meeting. Last scason this society was most popular and there is ho reason why we should not have just as good a time this spring. The choir is likely to meet after the Young People's meeting. Owing to the prevailing sickness in the vicinity the Young People of Utica will not hold their regular meeting on Friday evening next, April 26th, and Sunday School and Church for the 28th are also callea off. It is hoped by thé following Sun- day the sick ones will be back 3 us again, The Ladies Aid representatives of Utica met twice at the Parsonage and did a splendid piece of work in the papering of two bedrooms.

Extra pro- gramme is also being prepared. Fire of undetermined cause com- pletely destroyed the beautiful resi- dence of William H. Moore, M.P., near Dunbarton, South of the Kingston Road, on Sunday evening. The blaze was discovered about 6 o'clock, shortly after Mr. Moore had left on a visit to Oshawa, It started inoan upper storey, and spread with considerable rapidity. The Pickering and Brougham fire brigades were summoned, and fought the flames for thuee hours, but were unable to save the mansion. They did succeed, how- ever, in saving one of the two valu. able libravies owned by Mr. Moore, but the other was a complete loss. It will be some days before the total loss can be computed.
