28 CENTENNIAL HISTORY May the children of this church from generation to generation prove worthy of these Godly ancestors. May those who on this Centennial bear as the present members of the church, its responsibilities, appreciate the sacredness of the trust committed to them and be faithful to their high calling. With cherished memories of his happy pastorate of six years in the Orange church-years of hallowed associations with its many noble and loving members-your oldest pastor now on earth sends across the continent with deepest love his warmest greeting to all this flock of Christ's assembled on this Centennial. Ever affectionately yours, HENRY T. STAATS.
