Closing Session cs tho cs=vaoa..sa.


The concluding sessions Of the Washington Epls.
copal Convention were held yesterday In Christ
church. Navy Yard. At 1880 the cOnvocation was
opened with prayer and sermon by. Rev. Mr.
Stuart of Christ church, Georgetown. lie took his
text from Acts w.. 49, Tho cOnvoCation was then
called TO order for business by the dean. Dr. Paret
offered resolution, which was adopted That the
secretary be instructed to convey to the Right Rev
crend Bishop of North Carolina the assurance Of
their thanks for the sermon IN BeHOridDi OF the late
Bishop Nottingham preached by himself before
the convocation and of their qualification on know
ing that he had consented TO its publication. The
resolution offered by Rev. Mr.. steele on Wednesday
concerning the discussion In the ConvOcAtiOn OF
matters Of practical Interest to the church taken
up and discussed, but wos not adopted Recess
was then taken and the mrml crS were provided
with lunch. Upon roassrmbling Dr. Addison
offered a resolution asking that a committee be up
pointed to make n report oil the manner OF con
Quoting funerals. and particularly iii regard to the
extravaganza OF the expenditures. lie was OF the
opinion that they did not have time enough to at
tend TO The necessary business of the convocation,
especially In the time needed In the discussion OF
most important matters. He thought that the con-
vocation ought to take n stand against the many
wrongs pruCticcd in the burial service and in the
interment OF the dead, especially IN regard TO the
| needless expense of funerals. lie thought that
such gross extravaganza could be stopped If the
several ministers would combine against It. II
would relieve great many people from heavy
burden and would be exceedingly advantageous
to largo number OF persons who were unable to
make a big show but do i in order not to be out
done by fashion. Quite discussion followed. some
for aud some against the measure, many important
points being Involved. The resolution was lost,
however. and the convection adjourned zine die.
