gust |, 1871, and amounted to 1885,

Boards and to apply on church debts

mains more than the original five MIL
lions which the Presbyterian Church
set ont to raise. There were 5000
certificates issued in promoting this
work. The fund is now closed. Re-
port adopted.
The Committee on Finance and Be
nevolence presented two reports. One
suggested that all monies be paid into
one common fund, to be delivered ac-
cord ng to some schedule OF apportlon-
ment, or that the monies be paid INTO
different funds as they may be deslg-
mated, and disbursed accordingly. The
majority, represented by Rev. j. E.
Johnson, contended that the contrihu-
tons should be dsbursed a7 the con
tributors directed, and not placed In thu
common fund.
The subject vas referred to a specla
committee consisting OF Rev. DR.. John

tons to students ordered by last year
