Kingsteignton: Presentation to a Sunday School Teacher: Mr. P. B. Mann, who for a number of years has been connected with the Congregational Sunday School, has lately taken an out farm formerly occupied by Mr. J. Pinsent, which is too far from the chapel to allow Mr. Mann to continue as a teacher. This led the teachers at a meeting held on Saturday evening to present Mr. Mann with a family Bible containing the following inscription – “Presented to Mr. P. B. Mann by the teachers of the Kingsteignton Congregational Sunday School as a slight acknowledgement of 36 years’ faithful service in the above school.” The presentation was made by the Rev. R. W. Row.
