| In consequence OF changes effected n
| week previous In the Fifteenth ward
the former Blshopric Of that ward We're
now residents Of the Fourteenth ward
as the Saints living on the two tiers OF
blocks east Of Fourth West street had
been added to that ward. 1t was now
proposed that the Fifteenth ward
should comprise all the Saints residing
between South Temple and Third South
streets and Fourth West and the Jor.
dan river. This would return the mem.
bers OF the Twenty ward TO the
Fifteenth ward to which they originally
belonged, and Of which Edward T. Ash.
ton had been set apart as Bishop with
his counsel0rs John w. Bond and James
NJ. Christensen. A vote was taken 10
this effect which was unanimous. John
Gotham had been selected as clerk, he
accepted the appointment and was set
apart under the hands OF the stake
presidency and Bishop Ashton who
acted as mouth. The presidency Of the
stake each gave timely instructions and
a number Of the Saints bore testimony
TO the truth OF the latter-duy work,
and the meeting was very enjoyable.
The corporation Of the Twenty fourth
ecclesiastical ward will attend TO the
transfer Of property 20 the Fifteenth
ward, and the latter will retain such
property as remains to It, The auxili-
airy societies will be feorganIzed with
out unnecessary delay. The arrange
ments made appear 10 be entirely salts

changes have been effected In pleas
