portant In the history OF the church
because of tho completion of union

church The solemn declaration of the
consummation of the union by the
moderator and the appearance OF dele
gates from the Cumberland assembly
were Incidents that Will be remembered
long by the men who came from all
parts OF the world to advance the
cause OF Christianity,
Union a Fact.
The declaration OF the assembly IN
favor OF the church federation is also
considered an important step, and II
is expected that 1t Will be followed by
similar action on the part of other
churches. The movement for union ana
federation is believed by church lead
ers to be in full swing, and they pre-
diet the early union OF all Presoyter-
ian churches In the United States.
