who was. retiring- froni the position after' ao years" service. His work would remain m the memory of them all, for a great deal of the progress of the cliurch was due. to the assiduous attention that Colonel Winter bad always paid... to his duties. They hoped he would always be with them as a member of the vestry. He. li^id . definitely, intimated he would nut allow himself to be- nominated again,! and the Vicar said ho would ask parishioners to express their gratitude to Col. Winter. (Loud applause.) | When nominated for the vestry, Colonel Winter asked that his name be withdrawn, saying lie had had 20 years' service, and it was time he gave place to some younger man.— Warm, tributes were paid to Colonel Winter's work, and he was prevailed upon to .consent to nomin' , ation. '

At a later stage Mr. C, A. deLautour again referred to Colonel Winter's retirement after so many years of faithful and devoted service, rind moved that tho parishioners place oh record their higli appreciation of tlie devoted services of Colonel Winter as People's Churchwarden.—This was seconded by Mr. .Toxlllake, and carried by acclamation.

In reply. Col. Winter said ho did not expect .surlj remarks to be made. This mouth completed his 20 years' service as an ollicer of the Church— four years vestryman and sixteen years churchwarden. He thanked them for the confidence they had placed 'in him. The work had been* a labor 61 love, and it gave him a wrench to give it up, but he found that, with declining years he was unable to carry out the duties, and considered a j'ounger arid more energetic, man should he appointed. During his long term of office he had seen many changes m the parish, notably the croc-

tion of the new church. ' Since ho had been connected with the vestry they had worked harmoniously, and had studied tbe interests of the church. He thanked *Ihe speakers for their remarks, and felt from what had been said that, he could retire satisfied with his .past labors. He trusted tho church, would prosper finan- ' cially, and, above all, spiritually. (Ap- ' plause.) • ■ ' A' ! The following were elected to the vestry: Messrs A. H. Wallis (Kaiti), L. Redward (Mangapapa), and, .Sumpter (te Hapara); Colonel Winter. Messrs Hill, C. E. Armstrong,' C. D. Arlidge; A. L. Muir. T. Ellery, and E; H. Mann.'.; Miy V> Pyke was appointed auditor. i At the 'instance of Mr. Jex-Blake a re- ! solution was passed placing on record the parishioners' gratitude, to Mr. Tullock, the verger, for his faithful services and lhe splendid way m which he attended to the church property.
