News Sheet: With this issue of the News-Sheet the under signed severs his connection with the business activity in the town of Sherwood. It has been 1 early four yeirs since this paper was launched on the journalistic sea, and the voyage at Times has been a rough one; many a storm has been encountered. As pilot I have stood by the wheel through calm and through storm. I have neither side-tracked nor back fit -pped, but have steered straight ahead. What has been accomplised through my efforts remain to tell the story. I have at all times aimed to be fair, end still believing I was right in the things I stood for I have no re grets or apologies to makev I have been a friend to everybody and tried to command their fi-ieniLdiip in return. In some instances I Jailed; very naturally so, and (bono whom 1 befriended most are my rsatest enemies, as is ho often the case. It is gratify ing, however, to know that my friends far out number my enemies, which is further proof; that the principles I stood for, were sound.. Because of these friends Sherwood will always 1 e a dear- spot to me and my family. ' We h; ve become to love the peo ple and w ill always feel a deep interes t in them. So it is with regret that we are 'compelled to lasve Sherwood by having accept ei a c, II to a higher vocation in life, that, of the ministry. In these few parting vttirds I wish to thauk the friends of the News-Sheet foV their generous support and their comforting words in times of dispair. Dur ing my career with the News Sheet it has, I believe, moulded sentiment in Sherwood that will go down in the town's history and tend to 'cause recollections of its strenuous career for perhaps a century to come- So in sever ing my connection with the busi ness activities of the town of Sher ' od -the place 1 'have learned to love because of its excellent people 1 feel tike say ing with the Apostle Panl, "I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the fpith " .
