Presentation—After the anniversary services of the Park-road Baptist Sunday School on Sunday a very pleasing little ceremony took place in the Choir Vestry. The choir and officials of the church assembled under the presidency of Mr. W. B. Sanders, supported by Mr. F. Corby, Mr. C. A. K. Green, and Mr. T. C. Clark, to bid farewell to Mr. Lindsay Clipson, A.R.C.O., their organist, who is joining H.M. Forces. Mr. F. Corby said during the seven years Mr. Clipson had served the church in the capacity of organist they had opportunity of appreciating not only his skilled services but also his sterling character and worth. The speaker hoped Mr. Clipson would be spared to return to them, and said Mr. Clipson might rest assured that the prayers of the church would go with him.—Mr. Sanders then handed to Mr. Clipson a handsome silver illuminated wrist watch. The speaker suggested that at ten o’clock each night they should all think of Mr. Clipson and pray for him, so that, although separated in the flesh, they would be together in spirit.—Mr. Clipson sincerely thanked the church and the choir for their kindly remarks. He had spent a very happy time at park-road Baptist Church, and he should always remember with appreciation his connection with the church. He was very glad that his position as organist would be kept open for him, and he hoped to be spared to resume his duties in the future.—Mr. F. Sharwood and Mr. Clark, the choirmaster, gave neat speeches appreciative of Mr. Clipson’s work and worth.
