for the holding of the triennial Conven'
ton of the P. E. Church in the United
States, we will begin with the beginning.
and give you, according to promise, brief
Wow of the daily proceedings.
The church was crowded to excess
Eighty pews had been held in reserve for
the delegates and clergy visiting the Con-
vention. It would be useless TO attempt
description of the approach to Emmanuel.
We had to push our way gently for O con-
siderable time before we got to the door,
and then the pushing was to be O little
stronger. Finally we met with q gentle
man acquaintance who was On the Com

subject of new diccoses, were received from
Arkansas and referred to the Committee
There were documents referred to the
Committee on the Conservation of Bis

South Carolina. There was considerable
time taken up use'essly as to where q dele

should not move from his location.
There were papers read concerning the

tet be looking old soldier of the Cross. but
one, nevertheless, that preached ia the

After the communion sometime the
