The daily average attendance is about twenty and it is the property of Thomas Ogilvy Esqr Corrimony Ho. [House] Glen Urquhart'

The new mission church at Corrimony, in the parish of Glenurquhart, is now open. The building, which was formerly an old school-house, having been generously made over to the church by Mr L A MacPherson of Corrimony, has been entirely renovated and reroofed with an open roof of polished pitch pine. The area has been seated with Windsor chairs for seventy persons, which, however, were quite inadequate to accommodate all who attended the opening ceremony, the building being crowded to the door. Towards the expense of reconstruction the Home Mission Committee voted £50, and the balance has been met by subscriptions and the proceeds of a successful sale of work held on the 27th ult during the annual highland games at Drumnadrochit.
