ADDRESSES.
The first speaker, Rev. T. c. Potter of

from occupying the time, and gave way

for such an occasion by Rev. Il. ID. Walker.
But the treat and enthusiasm of the even.

one of the secretaries of the parent society,
in an address of an hour, that brought up

Witherspoon, chairman of the court to

brought against HIM, they do think him
guilty of great irregularities in his business
