REV. A. ST. J. HEARD.
Rev. A. St. J. Heard, M.A., rector of St Paul's Church, Ipswich, has accepted the living of St. Mary's, Caterham, Surrey, and will conduct his last service here on October 25. Heard came to Queensland about 15 years ago to join the Bush Brotherhood, and for five years he was stationed in the north. Upon completion of that work he went on active service as chaplain and spent about five years abroad. For three years after his return to Queensland Mr. Heard was at Chinchilla, and about three years ago accepted his present charge.
