Thursday abolished the time limit Of
pastorates, thus finally disposing Of one
OF the most important questions before
the body and doing away with one Of
the fundamental features Of the denomi-
nation. Hereafter preachers will be
appointed annually by the Bishops, with
no limit on the number of years pas
tor may serve one congregation.
