DIGEST DELIVERANCES OF SYNOD
This committee is not yet able to make a final report as
was anticipated at the last meeting of Synod. Unforeseen difficulties

Reed's sickness and death have had something to do with the
delay, but the most of his work was completed before he was
entirely disabled, and provision was made for completing what
he was not able to finish.If the Synod thinks best, the vacancy
caused by his death should be filledby a man who has some
experience in putting copy in proper shape for printer.
Respectfully submitted,
R. C. WYLIE, Chairman.
Item 9. Preparation lantern slides.
No report, and the matter was dropped.
