Yesterday (Sabbath) was one long to
be rem. em hered in the history Of New
Castl- ". L Church. This being the
last Sabbath of the Conference year, II
was supposed that as usual, there
would be a spiritual and financial
abatement of the Church's condition,
and pressing ne ,essity Of raising TWO
or three hundred dollars for the Pastor
before he could go TO Conference, nor
was the congregation disappointed in
this for the statements were made.
The Pastor DR. BrisJor announced at
the opening of the morning. services
that the numerical strength of the
Church at the clOse of the year was not
so large as it was at the beginning al
though q remarkable spiritual work
had been accomplished. During the
year large number had withdrawn or
been dismissed from membership,
while others had joined by certificate
or from probation, the record would
show reduction to Il full members
and 80 probatlOners. The financial
condition he stated was good, there be
ing TO small debts " hich he named
unpaid. He had come before the con.
gregatisn but once for a conference COL
lection during the year and that was
for missions. The Bishop was paid, the
Presiding Elder was paid, and to the
surprise of many, he stated he had the
pleasure to announce that which had
never before been said from that pu) pit
the Pastors salary had been collected
