Excerpt from Annual Paper Concerning the Lord's Work: In Connection With the Pastors College, Newington, London, 1887-88

During another year we have diligently laboured on in the Pastors' College, and have found pleasure in the labour. The Lord has been mindful of us, and has accepted and prospered our work. It is more easy to think out and deliver twenty lectures, than to write one Report. The fact is, there is nothing to write about so long as all goes smoothly, tutors are in health, students are in sound working order, funds come in regularly, and openings are found for men when their term is over. This has been our happy portion throughout the year. Everything has gone well with us, and we can only say, "Bless the Lord"; and with hearty thanks assure our generous donors that we were never more attached to our College enterprise, and never more hopeful as to its results.

Yet we may, and even feel that we must, say that our staff of workers is a singularly able one. The Vice-president looks after the whole institution with a sleepless eye, and in a thousand ways, mentionable and unmentionable, keeps the little band in good marching order. He has to administer fatherly discipline and brotherly advice; and he does both with wonderful wisdom and patience. Mr. Gracey is graceful, accomplished, affectionate, commanding. All the men love and admire him, and they are right in so doing, for he lays himself out for their benefit, and he has something worth laying out. Our old friend, Mr. Fergusson, is all on fire with the desire to push on his young friends, and put into them an intense fervour for their holy work. Mr. Marchant is the third of the trio, and contributes his large information and deep experience to the common treasury. What these brethren have been to us during the last few months, and for many long years before, it is not in the power of our pen to write. Happily, whatever brawls disturb the street, we dwell in peace at home - yes, and much more than peace, for we are of one heart and of one soul. It is a mercy to have these leaders in their places, and able to fill them. We praise our God who has provided such admirable fellow-helpers. The grand old veteran. Rev. George Rogers, is yet flourishing, and his occasional presence always brings with it a gracious influence.

Mr. Cheshire most ably pursues his scientific lecturing, showing to his willing auditors that Nature is full of instruction, and that it supports the teaching of the Word of the Lord, so far as the material can corroborate the spiritual. Mr. Richardson perseveres with his voice-training, and many have been the improvements which he has produced in the speech and delivery of our young divines. He is a great acquisition to our staff. He aims at giving personal attention to each man in his own important department.

Mr. Johnson does not come into the College proper, but he steadily works on among the young men who seek education in the evening, and thus prepares valuable raw material for further development in the higher classes. This part of our work does not command such numbers of men as it used to do; but we trust the day will yet come when these golden opportunities will be eagerly seized upon.
