The annual payments from that asthe north end of the district had handsomely supported the candidate rest- dent in the southern end, so the south would rally te the support of the candidate from the north.

Then the General Conference was iideniaaall to make it obligatory on each annual Conference to raise an average of at least 10c. per member. The mode of assessment was to be left to the Ss of the Conferences concerned. Further, was decided that one-sixth of the an) subscriptions: of ministers be added to the capital stock, Then Conference recom- mended that the present securities of the fund be valued by a competent comuniitec.
