A most bappy day was enjoyed at tbe Church of tbe Redeemer on Easter. The storm in tbe evening interfered with tbe attendance bat tbe other ser¬ vices of tbe day were well attended. The mosical part of tbe service was ax¬ eeptionally good, especially the solo work of Mrs. F. G. Hill, whose fine so¬ prano voice was most sympathetic in interpretation.
