Jnn 9 On Monday night Inst there was held nt St. Albans Hall a meeting of many residents of the town, for the consideration of the formation of a Presbyterian OhuTch. The meeting was called to order by the Rev. J. Howard Hobbs, pastor of the Jamaica Presbyterian Church.

The citizens of the town have been led to take this step because of the growth of the place. A phenomenal sale of real estate during the last two years has made It possible for all farmers to sell their place for large sums, and in most eases those so selling have remained In town, and built beautiful homes for themselves. The houses which they have vacated have been bought by city people, and materially changed. A union Sunday School has been started, and because of the efficient services of its superintendent Hendrick Hendrickson, and his corps of officers and teachers, It Is In a most prosperous condition. Many have felt because of the distance, one and one-half miles, from any church, as though a church should be started.

The malorlty of those wishing the ychureh are Presbyterians; there are also Methodists and Dutch Reformeds. The meeting was held for the purpose of learning the will of the people. Many took part in the IVaiisson. Sir. Nevlns, a resident of Brooklyn, who has done a large real estate business in the town, offered to sell lots cheap to the church which should bf built, besides giving 91,009.

Mr. Helser. also Interested In real estate, and a resident of the town, spoke In favor of the proposition. Others said that they did not think It should be a Presbyterian Church, because there were other denominations represented. There were some in favor of hiring the present hall for the meetings, while still others were quite enthusiastic about building a church of their own.

All of the forty-odd persons present were heartily In favor of something definite being done. Mr. Hobbs did not desire In any way to Influence the people, but let them, after free discussion, decide for themselves whnt best had better be done. It was finally decided that a committee of five, consisting of Messrs. Nevlns.
