I am sure that so long as he lives it will bring joy to the heart of Mr. Johnston that during his ministry out here he has set the erection of this Church, and that all you who have been his co-work- iers will share with him in that joy.

And now, again. his munificence haa made possible the building of the Union Church, Kowloon, to be for you a spiritual home, a place around which will ventre some of the most sacred experiences of life, I offer you, from my heart, congratulations and, wish you God- speed in all the work that shall be done here.

Following the Bishop, the minister of the Church of Christ (Hop Yat Church) gave a speech in Chinese which the Rev. Frank Short trans inted.

A very enjoyable sorial funėtion followed the service which was also very well attended.
