Ev. Luth. Synod of Missouri, Ohio, and Other States. 1929. 47

gracious Lord encompass this good and faithful servant with boun-
teous mercy during his declining days! The Rev. A. Dede, of De-
fiance, O., was successfully called to fill this vacancy in our faculty.
In March, 1927, Mr. Martin Keller, treasurer of the Board, after
B-years of faithful and competent service, tendered his resignation be-
cause of ill health. The Board accepted this resignation and was
fortunate in enlisting the services of Mr. Milton O. Kaiser as member
@.of the Board and its treasurer. Brother Keller was called to his
eternal reward in November, 1927. ;

Just as we had compiled our report, the sad news reached us that
the Lord in His wisdom has seen fit to take our faithful colaborer
Charles E. Tegge from our midst. Mr. Tegge met with a serious
accident on February 6 and was called to the eternal home on Feb-
.tuary 9. Mr. Tegge was a veteran worker in the army of the Lord.
We shall miss his counsel and diligent application to duty, as well as
-his open-handed generosity for the needs of the Church and of our

: college in particular. Requests.
