ence meeting Before this, however,
the following resolutions were presented
by Rev j. L. Caroline and unanimously
adopted:
AS the ninth annual conference, iGeor-
gia State Epworth Leagues, draws to a
close, we desire to give expression such
as We may, to the thanks we feel to
those that have rninistered to it's success.
We feel these have been days of priyi-
lege and that the effect of the meetings
will be lasting and far-reaching. 1t is
source of qualification that this, the last
meeting Of our body as a state organiza-
ton was held in the historic city of Sa-
vannah, and in the stately church edif1ce
erected as a monument to the founder of
Methodism. 1t is therefore resolved, l.
That we are grateful to the citizens of
Savannah for their cordial hospitality in
entertaining the conference; that we es-
TEEN it a privilege to have been in the
homes Of this city, and Will carry away
delightful recollections of this feature of
our visit r.t ##A Faf
Second That we express our thanks
TO Savannah Union of Epworth Leagues
Tor their labor and aid in promoting the
Conference, without which the success at
TENED would not have been possible. iA
Third. That we appreciate ahe labors
Of the state officers in arranging the pro-
merit @7aFiH#d *NHs
Fourth. That our special thanks are
lshdersd Brother r. b. Reppard for the
complimentary "trip to Tybee-by-the-Sea
which we all so heartily enjoyed this at
tsrhoon While Brother Reppard's mod
eAty prevented his generosity from being
tuoicly disclosed, his wholeheartedness
Is too we'll known for us to- doubt the
debted =.

10 the railroads and the daily papers for
,"elr couresies in connection with the
Conference" l&1 G =
