Lectures on Errett
The centennial lecture today was
given by the Rev. f. NJ. Dowling of
Pasadena, whose subject was Isaac
Errett's Contribution to the Reforma-
tion.' He said in part:
Isaac Errett was broad-minded and
sympathetic. His wisdom more than
that of any other man kept the church
from dividing on the question of slav-
cry, as others did. His most signal
service was in the furtherance of our
missionary interests as one of the
founders of the foreign society and in
calling the whole church to help those
women who were inaugurating the
Women's Missionary society"
This afternoon the Christian wom-
ems board of missions rendered a re-
Ception at the Ebell clubhouse to the
leaders in the convention and the dis
tinguished visitors.
