The report shows the cost of the new hotel
to be s. $50. A committee OF the board also
reported the accounts OF w. 81. r. Reed,
Treasurer of the association, to be correct.
The Secretary read the amendment bro.
pesed last year by Mr.. Cumback. looking to
tbe election OF officers during the summer
meeting instead of at the May meeting. Rev.
q. L. Curtis thought that this amendment
would do away with the May meeting, there.
bY working an Inconvenience. Mr.. Cum
back said the constitution provided for the
May meeting. and thought the change in tae
time Of election would enable all the
holders OF tents to be present to vote on t1e
matter, whereas, st present, not all the legal
voters can attend the May nesting TO
vote on the question. Mr.. D)wden, of
Greensburg, thought it would bs hardsr to
get fuller attendance OF the stockholders
at the summer meeting than az the May meet
ing. On motion of Mr.. CumD back the former
motion to adopt the proposed amendment,
was laid on the table for the time being. A
vote of thanks was rendered to the former
Presiding Elder aud the trustees for their past
services. On motion it was decided to call
the roll OF tent holders on the vote for
officers. On motion the Secretary was IN
struCted to cast the vote OF the association

applying at once to W. d. r. Reed, at Greens
burg. by letter.
But one thing caused q sadness during the
day and that was the absence of Mrs. Rsed
of Greensburg. This lady died suddenly 9
few weeks ago, and the thought that her
pleasant face ould no more be seen on the
grounds caused many expressions of sym
Dathy for the bereaved family. whose
grief is greater than that of all others. Many
kind words were given Brother Reed durinl
the day, but his heart was too full to permit
him to speak, and the revsrent silence of tn,

The business meeting being ended, tn
