Association last night, when Mr H. Lancaster suggested a collection in the room to pay the man. The sum of £1 13s was raised immediately and Mr D. YV. Reid was appointed to take charge of the expenditure of the money. A peculiar accident happened in East Street yesterday, when the Borough Council’s big mental lorry was proceeding up the road. A small car backed out in front of the larger vehicle, the starting handle of which penetrated the fabric body of the small car. The damage to tho car did not incapacitate it, but the impact broke the steering gear of the lorry, which had to be repaired before it could be removed. PRESBYTERIAN SUNDAY SCHOOL.
