MOUNT PLEASANT.

For a long tune the residents of Mount Pleasant have felt the necessity for erecting a Roll of Honor, and on Sunday last that wish was gratified, as one has been placed in the Presbyterian Church. A very large congregation assembled to witness the unveiling, which was performed by the Military Commandant (Brigadier-General Antill), who also spoke on the war. Dr. Proctor was present in his uniform, to bid a last farewell to Mount Pleasant prior to his departure for Sydney. The roll contains 82 names of those who have enlisted from this district, including Dr. J. S. Proctor, and-Nurses Hicks, Thompson, Giles, and Murray, and also Captain-Chaplain Rev. J. A. Ford.
