from four ministers and eighteen ruling

the constitutional steps to amend tho

Churches, united under one pastor, shall

The committee recommend the follow

recommend the following reply:
The Book of Government, chapter 10,

gregation the right to extend their pastoral
call to any probationer, when he shall
have preached so much to their satisfso-
ton that tue people appear prepared to

they think it expedient TO present the call

nor the discretion of the Presbyteries.
