 count of the Meeting for Orga nizattOn. To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 There was quite large gathering, oonsid- ering the inclemency of the weather, ,lastWed~ nesday evening at No. 40 Park Place. It was in response to a call for those friendly to the formation of second Universalist socie- ty The call for such 8 society originated with the ladies of the Universalist Workers Mission, corner of Broadway, where they have small but thriving Sunday school and to which visitors are always welcome. Feel ing the need of church privileges for them selves, their families and those committed to their charge, they have accumulat- ed fund towards a church. After prayer full consideration they came to the conclusion that the time for organization had come, &hno En1 O nf nT1Q QnJZ Za- tion Mir. Barber was called to the chair and Mrs. Drew appointed secretary pro ten The chairman was called upon to give informa- tion. In reply he stated that he had found so many conflicting opinions to whether women could organize a legal society that he had written to one of the best lawyers in the State on the subject. The letter in reply stated that under our statutes women could form / an ecclesiastical society, "hold property, vote, and do precisely as men do.'' This being satisfactory those present were called on to sign the articles of association, " which was done by nearly all, including several gentlemen. In the discussion relating to the society's committee Mir. Chas. Warehouse thought that none but Christians should compose such committee, his remarks being listened to with evident interest. The following per sons were then elected the society's commit tee Mir. H. H. Olds, MT. Hawkins, Mrs. Hawkins, Mrs. Cecilia Waterhouse MT. John Barber. For officers of the society Clerk, Mir. John Barber; treasurer, Mrs. Cecilia Warehouse. Mir. Rowe, @ reporter for leading Universalst paper in Boston, made few remarks in which he saw no reason why they should not prosper and be recognized by their sister churches. The society then adjourned in excellent spirits It is worthy of mention that this society is believed to be the first ecclesiastical corporation that was started by women and where they can vote and hold office.
