Presbyterian Church on Monday. Novem-
Der II. The session will convene at 2

special subject to be discussed is that of
Presbyterial missionary. The matter was
warmly discussed at the recent meeting
Of the Synod of Baltimore, held in Wash
ington, and permission given to the
peesbyteries of Baltimore and New Cas-
tie to appoint Presbyterial missionaries
if they choose.
There are fifteen churches in the New
Castle Preshytery, which are without
pastors, and if it is decided to engage a
missionary, it will be his duty to work
up these churches and eventually assist
in obtaining pastors for them There is
strong probability that the coming
meeting will decide favorably in the
matter The matter has aroused much
interest in the Presbytery and the meet
ing will be largely attended. 1t is de
sired that the members Of Presbyterian
churches in the city attend and listen to
the discussion
