We desire to show that your ebrts as S S. teacher to instruct us on Bible truths and in- culcate principles of right doing. have been appreciated. Ever since you re- sumed the responsibility of teacher of our class you have labored uuceasingly for our good, both intellectually and spiritually. We thus cannot let this 'vpp(rtl1_nilGy pass without giving evi- dence of our love and esteem toward you in a more tangible way than by mere words. Hence we now present you with this Toilet Case, as a me- mento of the pleasant and protable hours spent together in the S. S. class at Newton Robinson. We regret that our associations together as teacher and scholars are about to be severed, but _ we hope we willnot soon forget your words of counsel and advice and that they may sink deep into onrhearts and be productive" of much good in our after lives. Lastly, we hope and pray that God may guide us all safely across I life s stormy sea so that we may one` day meet around His throne to praise him through countlessages of eternity. Svgned.- Thomas A.
