long before the hour for the reading of

college before the arrival of the Bishop.
A number of old time hymns were
sung by the audience. After devotional
exercises, the minutes of the afternoon
session were read and approved. A res
olution thanking the citizens of Nc
Rae and Helena for their kind hospi-
tality. the churches, the banks and
the press was unanimously passed.

ranging from IS to $50. A feature OF
the collection was subscriptions from
different classes in Wesleyan Female
