present. None regretted this more
than the Trinity people, who had
looked forward with great interest to
the meeting and had made large prepa-
rations to entertain the delegates. The
convention appreciated their hospi-
tality and passed resolution express
ing its thanks. ~,
The attendance on Thursday was
very good, and on Friday the church
could not hold the congregation, which
are splendid evidences of an interesting
meeting.
