Dedication in Healdsburg.
By Editor
THE dedication of "North College Hall" took place Sunday, Aug. 5, according to appointment. The weather was about as pleasant as possible, and the occasion in every way an enjoyable one. The large double parlor and room adjoining and hall were crowded with citizens of Healdsburg, with members of our church, and the inmates of the house. The exercises commenced with singing, reading of Psalm 19, and prayer. Bro. W. C. White made the report in behalf of the Building Committee, giving a very brief description of the building, its cost to date, etc. It was interesting to all. Eld. Haskell responded in behalf of the Board of Trustees, and accepted the building. The dedicatory address was given by the editor of the SIGNS, and the dedicatory prayer offered by Eld. Haskell. After this, remarks were made by Sister White, Mr Jordon, the editor of the Russian River Flag, Mr. Ruffner, of the Council, and Mr. Atherton, pastor of the Presbyterian Church. The exercises were interspersed with singing; and the company of singers, rather hastily organized for the occasion, did themselves credit. All seemed pleased, and most of the audience spent some time in viewing the building, which was the admiration of all. As we arrived home just in time to aid in putting the paper to press, we can give no further particulars this week.
