This was ably responded to by Captain Jaques who referred as did the other local speakers to the pioneer days when Mr. and Mrs. Glen were friends and helpers to all-comers in the district. Piano solos by Mrs. Jackson and Miss G. Nichols varied the program and were greatly, enjoyed as were also songs by Mr. Shenton and Mr. McArthur. Short speeches were given by A. J. Walker, W. G. Gallaugher, C. McCulloch, W. Douglas, G. H. Coward, E. Wilt, W. McNaughton and by Mrs. Walter Hillson.

     Dr. Bayne read letters of greeting and congratulations from Revs. W. A. Cameron, Saskatoon; D. G. Cameron, Swift Current; H. R. Home, Moose Jaw; D. Smith and Mrs. Duff, Maniwakl, Quebec. Telegrams were read from Glen, Jean and Grace Motta, Winnipeg; and Fred, Kingston, and Rev. G. M. and Mrs, Williams, D.D., on behalf of the session of the church at Georgetown, Quebec, which Mr. and Mrs. Glen, had attended.
     Presentations Made
     An impressive incident occurred near the close when Mrs. C. Findlay read to Mr. and Mrs. Glenn an address, while Mrs. William Elliot handed to Mrs. Glen a cream and sugar set, gold lined, to Mr. Glen a massive gold headed cane, and to both an eider down comforter. Both gave fitting replies. Mr. Motta, son-in-law of Mr. and Mrs. Glen fittingly thanked all who took any part in the celebration and expressed the family's appreciation of the honor given to their father and mother.2
     In the obituary of James Glen who died 4 August 1939, his daughter, Grace Glen was listed as predeceased.5
