REPORTS.

BOARD OF EDUCATION.

Your Board begs to report that it has considered the interests which wai:; before it, and we note with grat­itude the prosperous condition of Emory and Wesleyan Perun.le Colleges. The enrollment of students at the first-named institution amounts to 279, with fourteen professors. 'fhe report of President Dinsmore is full of encouragement, and we rejoice in the work being done there for the higher education of our young men.

One of the pressing needs of Emm-y College is a modern up-to-elate Science Hall. This, we hope, may soon be secured. A generous layman, Capt. J. P. Wil Iiams of Savannah, Ga., has proffered $15,000 for this purpose, provided the churches in the patronizing Con­ferences will raise a like sum. 'fhe North Georgia Conference in its recent session pledged $5,000, and the South Georgia Conference promised at its last session $2,000 toward securing the proffered donation of Capt. Williams. There still remains about $2,000 yet to ba collected in order to obtain the sum promised.

Wesleyan .B'emale College pursues its shining way. The year now closing has been one of great prosperity. Roberts' Hall, the new building, is crowded, and the difficulty now before the trustees of this institution is to find room for those seeking admission therein. The enrollment is greater than ever, and could room be made- as it must be-it would not be difficult to chron­icle an attendance of five hundred pupils.

It is hoped a new building, the equal of Roberts' Hall, may soon be erected at Macon. The need is great,

M. l!l. OIJUHOU, sou·rir. 25

but the people of the patronizing Conferences are pros­perous, and their liberality may be depended upon to bring this desired end to consummation.

We commend these institutions- Emory and Wes­leyan- to the consideration A.nd generous patronage of the Methodists of Florida. We wish the best for our children- then let us pA.tronize these time-tried and worthy colleges, as they are prepared to do for us the work needed by our young people.

We were pleased to have with us at this session of our Conference Rev C. E. Dowman, a former member of this body, A.nd now Presidest of Emory College. We assure him a warm welcome whenever he may come among us.

We request the Bishop to appoint Jos. F. Ben, Con­ference Secretary of Education; F. Pasco, Superinten­dent East Florida Seminary; L. D. Lowe and J. I. Til­ley, students at Vanderbilt University.

The following are the assessments for Education for 1902:

The Methodist Review and Epwotth Rra have been published at a loss of $7,696. Whether tbe increased sales are from other periodicals published, or from book Sftles, is not stat ed, nor of what nature is the increase of assets. If these items were more detinitely stated, we could better judge if the hous e were doing the business that might reasonably b e expected of it. It is a matte I' of regret that its business or protits are so diminished, from causes not qefinitely s tated, that no longer is there paid a dividend to our needy Conference claimants. Iu a business amount~ng . to $400, 700, it seems that the profits should be sufficient for all the expenses of the house and a good dividend to said claimants.

The Review is worthy of a larger subscription list; the .Epwo1'th Era should have double or treble its circu ­lation among the young people of the Church; while that most excellent and well-edited religious paper, the Chris­tir.in Advocate, should entflr thousands of homes where it does not, and remove the reproach of being able to "live on its own means by close watching." 'l'hese ends can

~I. E. Oil UR<"fl, llOUTU.

be reached only by a larger interest being taken by our preachers in their circulation. Only in the dissemina­tion of the best religious literature can we counteract that which is vicious and hurtful: and a first -class Meth­odist paper is essential to build up an intellgeut and sturdy Methodism. We commend these pa,pers to our people. Let us also try to induce them to buy and read some of tho many excelleut books, new and old, issued by our house. In this connection we highly commend tho labors of Hev. R. H. Barnett, out· Conference Oul­porter.

We trust tha,t by J,~nuary 1 ourConfeTence organ will have started out anew on its career of usefulness and blessing, and under new auspices and with new hopes shall receive a lib ral and enthusiastic suppoTt from all our people.

BOARD OF CHURCH EXTENSION.

DEAR FATHERS AND BRETHREN:- From the report of the Secretary of the General Board we learn that there was collected on the nineteenth assessment the sum of $67,815.28, being an increase of $2,235.42. Yet this large sum is not sufficient to meet the demands of our growing church. Its rapid development in Cuba, Mexico and Brazil call for much more liberal contribu­tions upon the part of our people.

'l'he Loan Ji1 und of the General Board now amounts to the handsome sum of $191,096.48, which is in con•

stant use doing the work for which it was contributed. The growth of our Church in this State is· very

encouraging, and your Board has many pressing calls for assistance, which it tries to meet.

'I'ho collections this yenr show a slight incref1se over th last year, the total amount collected being 'Kliti.iu, n.n increase of $;JK.66.

The special collection for McTyerie church, Jack· son ville, amounted in eash and subscriptions to $705.RO, a t1)tal of $1~>72. 50.

SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD. There has been a gutifying increase of interest in

Sunday School work in our Conference. We note the holding of District Conventions and the increasing fund for the observance of Children's Day, and trust the increasing interest will be fostered by our presiding elders alJtl pastors everywhere.

While no communication has come before us in refer­ence to the newly enterprised work of our church un-

M. Iii. OUURCH 1 80UTU.

der the supervision of Dr. Hamil, we wish to heartily commend that work. We recommend the formation of Bible Teachers' Study Circles by pastors and superin­tendents of Sunday Schools throughout our Conference for the better equipment of our teachers and for train­ing of new teachers.

Our Sunday School publications are of the best and ought to be used in our schools to the exclusion of union literature so-called.

We are glad to note our increase in the number of our Sunday Schools and pupils. At present there are 278 schools, 1, 788 officers and teachers and 13,474 scholars, being an increase over last year of 12 schools, 84 officers and teachers and 832 scholars.

EPWORTH LEAGUE.

To the Bishop and Members of the Florida Annual Confer­ence: We, your Committee on Epworth Leagues, beg to

submit the following: We note with plea~:rnre that the leagues are growing

in numbers and efficiency throughout the connection. We are glad to learn that the "Era" is fast becoming

self-sustaining. We heartily endoTse this paper and commend it to our young people and plead for its wide­spread circulation. We recommend the holding of Dis­trict Conferences and the use, as far as possible, of the

We here express onr a'flpreciation of space given in the Advocate and the efficierit ·work of bur department editor. We urge y'{jtf.t· pastors to organize leagues in all the charges, as far as possible. Reports to this Con­ference show~ putnber of leagues 96, and number of members 2,632 'in the Conference, an increase of ---· over last year. J. A. HENDRY, for Committee.

l''· TEMPERANCE.

Your committee feels it necessary to enumerate the many and various evils which can be traced directly, or indirectly, to the liquor system as legalized and in prac­tice in our land. 'rhese evils are patent to us all. But it would call attention to the power of the Church and urge it to use this power in meeting and resisting this evil in every practicable way. It would suggest that the individual Christian consider prayerfully his own responsibility and that he use his influence at all times against the evil by guarding the ground well whipp has already been won for temperance, an:i that he persist­ently meet the invasions of the foe and keep him from the many counties which have been secured from his grasp. Also it would urge that, in the Epworth Leagues and Sabbath Schools, the lessons upon this vitally im­portant subject be taught with special influence; that the youths and children of the Church may be thorough­ly strengthened against the evil, and would further ad­vise that, as far as possible, the pastors use the unfer­mented juice of the grape at tho Sacrament of the Lord's Supper; and that by example in our homes, by the preached word from our pulpits, earnest prayers from our closets and firesides and the public ba.llot at the polls, we do all we can to banish this evil from our be­loved hmd. We further recommend that a committee of two clerical and one lay members of this body be ap-

pointed to co-operate with other organized bodies of the State in the work of temperance reform..

R. V. ATKISSON, Chairman.

SABBATH OBSERVANCE. ' •'

The subject given to your comt;iiittee is one of ".ital imp01·tance, therefore we cannot afford to make any compromise of the subject. The Sabbath was given for a day of rest and wo1·ship, sanct~fied and blessed by the giver, coming to us with a strong injunction, "R.e­membei· the Sabbath day to keep it holy."

This command is as binding as any of the ten, and if we would have long life and possess the land of prom­ise, we must keep our hands clean from the violations of this law.

· We hope the time will come when every business man will claim for himself this rest day, which is so essential to true success and hfLppiness. We should discourage the opening and reading of business letters on the Sabbath day, as well as the selling of goods and the running of trains.

We note with pleasure the work and success of the Sunday League of America, the largest and strongest organization in the world, with one hundred and seventy­fi.ve thousand members, a.nd about five million adherents. We not only wish them success, but promise to do all in our power to help on the good work. They have dis­tributed over five million leaflets on Sunday Reform this y13ar; but notwithst11nding the reform done by this league and the pulpits, yet there is room for increased efforts on the part of the Church, for in the rush of business and the love of pleasure many of our people are led to violate the Sabbath law. Let us preachers and delegates do all in our power to induce our people to keep the Sabbath clay holy.

BIBLE CAUSE.

'I'he treasurer of the American Bible Society very aptly puts the question: Is it not the chief duty of the Church and every indiviJual Christian to promote the spread of the Holy Scriptures, to the knowledge of whiclrwe owe our own salvation? And your committee desires, on this occasion, to emphasize as sharply as possible this question, and thus by divine grace to stir up the pure minds and lay upon the hearts and con­sciences of our preachers and people this great work. its needs and its opportunities.

For nearly one hundred years this mighty agency for good bas been sending out to the people of earth great and ever-increasing stores of the bread of life, the pure word of God, without notes and without comment.· And its sphere of operations and consequent blessings continues to widen as the years go by. We note not -0nly with satisfaction, but with devout thankfulness, the fact that during the past year there has been an increase in the work of distribution of about 150.000 volumes over the year previous, and that it now requires from ten to twelve millions of copies per annum to supply the demand for the blessed book. "Who can estimate the 1·esults to liberty of thought, higher national ideals, truer conceptions of the divine nature n,nd the richer ex­periences of spiritual life growing out of this vast seed­sowingl' What will the harvest be?"

It is a matter which calls for the profoundest grati­tude to God that the prayer of the Uhurch for an "open door" is answered, and well-nigh all outward barriers to thh~ introduction and spread of the Holy Scriptures are now removed.

We also rejoice in the fact that these scriptures are now published in about four hundred languages and dia­lects, thus immeasurably facilitating the work of the missionary as he enters upon his field of labor.

We beg, before closing this report, to call the atten-

M, JI. ORUllOII 1 llOUTH. 87

tion of the members of this Conference to the splendid liberality of the American Bible Society in proffering to relieve whatever absolute destitution may be found on our works, without money and without price, and add that the address of its agent for our territory is Rev. Thos. H. Law, D. D., Spartanburg, S. C.

What a debt the world owes! What a debt we owe this great institution! How shall we discharge our part of it? Certainly not by neglecting to bring this matter prominently before our people and their comin~ up to Conference with a "one dollar" contribution from one's own pocket. Therefore, in view of the great importance of this work and our hitherto remissness in the pren1ises we offer the following:

Resolved, That our presiding officer. at every annual . Conference hereafter, be requested to put to each preacher in charge the question: Have you conformed to the requirements of our Book Discipline in regard to the American Bible Society?

T. 0. BRADFORD, Chairman.

ORPHANAGE.

Your Committee on Orphanage, submit the follow­ing:

We have in the Home at Macon, thirteen children from Florida. We have raised for orphans, cash, lt193.23. and valuable boxes of clothing, the value we do not know. We would remind the Conference that the needs and opportunity for establishing an orphanage has come, and we therefore ask this Conference to delegate to this committee the right of receiving bids and secur­ing place and property for an orphanage home in the bounds of this Conference. They not to involve the Conference or the property with Clebt.

We appreciatE) the help and sympathy and help of Mission Societie's an·Q. ,Leagues and Sunday Schools and ask their further help in this direction.

·Respe·ctfully submitted, J, A. HENDRY, for Committee.

MEMORIALS TO GENERAL CONFERENCE.

The F'lorida Conference of the M. E. Church, South, in session at Live Oak, Fla., December 12-17, HJOl, re­spectfully memoralizes its General Conference assem­bled at Dallas, Texas, May, 1902, as follows:

First-That, whereas, the Senate of the United States has deelared that our war claim of $288.000 was obtained by the use of deceptive methods on the part of our agents, and whereas a great scandal has grown out

\ of the same,· that has caused our church to suffer and greatly disturbed her peace; therefore it is our godly judgment that the General Conference should return the whole amount of said claim to the Senate, thereby satisfying the conscience of our beloved church, by vin­dicating her honor and integrity, in settling right that which can never be settled in any other way.

Second-That, whereas, it is the mature conviction of this Conference that the order of deaconesses is both apostalic in origin and character and that its reinstitu­tion in our church will be productive 'of untold good in the addition of another strong arm of service to our al­ready well equipped and splendidly organized system; we therefore r equest the General Conference to enact a law that will make available for high and holy achieve" ment the latent but potential forces of thousands of our consecrated women.

'l'hird-That measures be taken that will make our Conference claimants fund connectional in its scope, so that the distribution may be made more equitable, thus aiding the weaker and niore burdened conferencei;;.

Fourth-It is further the sense of this Conference that as far as practicable that all of our connectional

42 J'LORIDi. i.NNUi.L CONYERBN011 1

9rgans be consolidated, thus savitig, a useless) expendi-ture of men and money. "

Fifth- We recommend, that in a way that may be for the glory of God, the Woman's Foreign Missionary Society and the Woman's Home Mission Society. be united.

(Extract from the report of the Board of Trustees of the Florida Conference College, which follow a recital of the conditions which made it inexpedient to try long­er to operate the college in Leesburg, without such release of the property as would be recognized by the donors.)

A committee was appointed by the Board to secure from the original donors a recognized release of their claims, or failing in this, to socure an equitable settle­ment. Said committee met the original donors at a called meeting on tho evening of May 29th and morning of May 30th, 1901, and submitted the following prop­ositions:

1. 'I'o continue our work for another year, and longer if the conditions justified, on condition that an acknowledged absolute release of the contract should be

M . E. OIIUROJI, 80UT!i, 47

given- the college faculty having'lbeen elected with this understanding. This they declined. '1 ·'

The committee then req·uested their terms of set­tlement. 'I'hey replied they had 'no proposit~otls 11Jo sub~ mit, but would consider further propositions from the committee. Our committee then proposed= · ·

2. 'ro surrender to the donors the real estate, in­cluding buildings, in settlement in full. This they res­pectfully declined.

3. A third proposition was then made by our com­mittee to refor the contra.ct a.nd settlement to arbitration upon the following conditions: The trustees to select a man who was not to be a trustee nor a member of the Florida conference; and the donors to select one not to be a donor nor a citizen of Lake county; these two to select a third subject to like requirements. 'rhis they declined, and in answer to the second and third prop­ositions submitted the following resolution:

1. WrrEREAS, It was the understanding in 1886, aside from any contract, that the conference should establish and provide upon the ground donated, a college properly equipped and furnished of the requi­site grade; and whereas, the conference have never carried out the :first•condition of the gift; and

2. WHEREAS, In the opinion of this meeting, their failure to do so, or·to provide more than a shell of a college, is the all-sufficient reason for the want of suc­cess attending the college:

"Now, it is the sense of this meeting, representing all of the original donors present, to reloa,so tho con­ditions of the gift within one year after the conference shall have provided and operated at Leesburg a college with equipments adequate for the accommodation of a number of students, sufficient for the maintenance and well-being of a college of the required grade; tho scale and expenses of such equipment and provision to be subject of future negotiations between duly accredited representives of the college and donors.

..

J'LORIDA. A.NNUA.L CONPBR11NC11 1

3. That this meeting, having put on record their willingness to release the conditions of the gift upon the conference, doing their part in good faith and to meet the conference in any reasonable manner to ena­ble them to do their part, and seeing no ground for arbitration of a contract which is plain in its terms, re~ lies upon the contract, and calls u:pon the conference to do their part."

Our committee then submitted their fourth and final propo~ition, to surrender all of our college prop­erty, including real estate, buildings, furnishing, library and apparatus in full settlement of all claims. '!'his they declined.

F'rom the foregoing facts it is plain that the original donors represented in the called meeting, avow that we have failed to maintain a college according to the origi­nal contract, and their offer to grant a release demands more than the original contract, and would require upon the part of the Uonference a greater outlay of funds than we have been able to make during the fourteen years past. As the original donors claim that we have not complied with the contract, notwithstanding the fact that we have expended all that they invested and a much larger sum raised by the church in founding and maintaining the institution, and as our.Board of Educa­tion has listed us as a college, and the charter under which we operate so grades us, and the curriculum taught in the sch1Jol so fixes us, and as the work done has vindicated this claim, we conclude that it is impos­sible to maintain a school that will meet the demands of the original donors. 'l'hey having refused all the prop­erty in vested by them and us in settlement of their claims, should our church make further in vestment, and any cause or causes prevent the continuance of our work in Leesburg, we would be confronted with the un­avoidable loss of all our property and still the donors would prosecute their claims against us.

In view of the above we have discontinued the work

Live Oak, December 14, 1901.

Tn mtmoriam. MRS. MARY JANE w ATERS, the daughter of

Rev. DfLndridge C. and Susan J. Walton, was born in Barren county, Kentucky, September 25, 1836; was married to Rev. John T. Waters in 1860, and departed this life at Viola, 'rennessee, March 20. 1901.

Our sainted sister was of Methodist lineage: her father and one grandfather, nine uncles and cousins being ministers of our Lord in the Metho­dist Episcopal Church, South. Giving her heart to God in her fifteenth year, she adorned her profes­sion by a godly walk and a pious conversation. Fittfld by heredity and early associations, there was a meetness in the life of a minister's wife which she entered and sustained with honor and blessing for over forty years. Four children were born to bless the married life of Mrs. Waters­three of whom preceded her to the world on high­the fourth, a son, lives to illustrate the example and precepts taught by his Christian mother.

One who knew her well, writes: ''In all her church relations Sister Waters was faithful; her walk was consistent; her experience was genuine and satisfactory, and her death a triumph."

And it is ever thus! They who walk with God know nothing of defeat. Even in the final con­flict they are more than conquerors. The power which sustains the soul in life is never missing when the end is nigh. In holy confidence tho saints of our Lord await His coming, and in blessed antic­ipation of the glory that shall be revealed have naught to do but breathe their lives out on His bosom.

Our honored friend and brother-a superan­nuate of our conference-is beyond doubt a lonely man, but heaven has unfailing joys for those who sorrow here, and in the hope of a blissful reunion, he awaits the summons which is to call him to his home in the cloudless empire of the saints.

It,or the Committee, R. L. HONIKER.

Tn mtmoriam. Mrs. Lilian 'I'. Wilson, eldest daughter of Rev.

Sylvanus and Anna I . 'l'ownsend, of the Baltimore Conference, was born April 9, 1863; married J. Edgar Wilson, October 16, 1883; transferred to Florida in April, 1901, and was translated to her heavenly home from Jacksonville, November 13, 1901.

Mr!>. Wilson had long suffered from that insid­ious and dreaded disease-consumption- and it was hoped that a milder climate might pr0long her life even if recovery could not be expected in her case. But the disease was su deeply seated it was soon seen that this hope was vain. Quietly, as sinks the light of day, her pure spirit winged its flight to the eloudless realms of life.

Coming to us a stranger, she soon endeared her.self to the people of Riverside among whom she dwelt, and the patience and gentleness she dis­played in her last illness made luminous the grace which cheered her passage through the valley and shadow of death.

Her husband and her four boys are indeed be­reft by this dispensation, but it is· comforting to believe that she rests in a world where sickness and sorrow, pain and death, are felt and feared no more. For her blooms the amaranth; we, alas, must mar the asphodel!

R. L. HONIKER,

For the Committee.

REPORTS.

BOARD OF EDUCATION.

Your Board begs to report that it has considered the interests whicb was before it, and we note with grat· itu.de the prosperous condition of Emory and Wesleyan l!'emale Colleges. The enrollment of students at the first-named institution amounts to 279, with fourteen professors. 'l'he report of President Dinsmore is full of encouragement, and we rejoice in the work being done there for the bigher education of our young men.

One of the pressing needs of Emory College is a modern up-to-d~tte Science Hall. This, we hope, may soon be secured. A generous layman, Capt. J. P. Wil Iiams of Sa.vannab, Ga., has proffered $15,000 for this purpose, provided the churches in the patronizing Con­ferences will raise a like sum. 'l'he North Georgia Conference in its recent session pledged $5,000, and the South Georgia Conference promised at its last session $2,000 toward securing the proffered donation of Capt. Williams. There still remains about $2,000 yet to be collected in order to obtain tbe sum promised.

Wesleyan Pemale College pursues its shining way. The year now closing has been one of great prosperity. Roberts' Hall, the new building, is crowded, and the difficulty now before the trustees of this institution is to find room for thos/3 seeking admission therein. 'rhe enrollment is greater than ever, and could room be made-as it must be-it would not be difficult to chron· icle an attendance of five hundred pupils.

It is hoped a new building, the equal of Roberts' Hall, may soon be erected at Macon. The need is great,

M. I!. OIIUJIOLl, SOUTH. 25

but the people of the patronizing Conferences are pros­perous, and bheir liberality may be depended upon to bring this desired end to consummation.

We commend these institutions-Emory and Wes­leyan-to the consideration and generous pfLtronage of the Methodists of Florida. We wish the best for our children- then let us patronize these time-tried and wortby colleges, as they are prepared to do for us the work needed by our young people.

We were pleased to have with us at this session of our Conference Rev C .. E. Dowman, a former member of tbi.s body, and now Presidest of Emory College. We assure him a warm welcome whenever he may come among us, · We request the Bishop to appoint Jos. F. Bell, Con­

ference Secretary of Ecluca,tion; F. Pasco, Superinten­dent East Florida Semina.ry; L. D. Lowe and J. I. Til­ley, students at Vanderbilt University.

Your committee has carefully and respectfully con­·sidered the rrport of the Editor and Publisher of the FLORIDA CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE, in which he tenders his resignation; and recommends for adoption by the Con­ference the following:

Resolved, That this Conference accepts the resigna-

28 FJ,QRlDA .A~NUAL CO:-IFEltENCE

tion of Rev. J. Anderson, D. D .. as Editor and Publi"!her of the ·PLORIDA CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE, as tendered in his report; and in so doing express its appreciation of his earnest and self·S<Lcriticing labors for fourteen years in the work of the paper; its unshn,ken con:Ei.dence in his integrity of purpose and purity of life; and desires to assure him of its abiding love for him as one of its most honored members and a brother beloved in the Lord; and will ever pniy for his peace and welfare.

H. A. HODGES, Chairman. HENRY E. PAlU'RIDGE, Secretary.

BOOKS AND PERIODICALS, No. 2.

We have considered the report of the Book Agents of the Church and notice that there has been a net in· crease in the sales of the house over last year of $16,954, and a net gaiu in assets of $37,~2G, while the liabilities of the house are only $17,181. rrhe Methodist Rev·iew and .Evwo1·th Rm have been published at a loss of $7,696. WheLher the increased sales are from other periodicals published, or from book sa.les, is not stated, nor of what nature is the i.ncrease of ~Lssets. If these items were more definitely stated, we could better judge if the house were doing the business tha,t might re<:Lsona bly be expected of it. It is a matter of regret that its business or profits a,re so diminished, from causes not definitely stated, that no longer is there paid a dividend to our needy Conference claimants. In a business amounting to $400,700, it seems that the profits should be sufficient for all the expenses of the house and a good di videncl to said claimants.

'rhe Review is worthy of a larger subscription list; the Epworth Era should have double or treble its circu­lation among the young people of the Church; while that most excellent and well-edited religious paper, the Chris­tian Advocate, should entP-r thousands of homes where it does not, and remove the reproach of being able to ';live on its own means by close watching." These ends can

j •

~1. E. on um·rr, sou'l'n. 29

be reached only by a hLrger interest being taken by our preachers in their circulation. Only in the di:';S mina­tion of the best religious literature can we counteract th~Lt which is viciom~ and hurtful: and a first-clfLss Meth­odist paper is essential to build up an intellgent and sturdy Methodism. We commend these papers to our people. Let us also try to induce them to buy and r 'ead some of the mauy excellent books, new and nld, issued by our house. In this connection we highly Cl)rnmend the labors of H,ev. R. I-I. Barnett, our Conference Ool­portcr.

We tru:'lt thn.t by J;mua,ry 1 our Uonference organ will have started out anew on its ca,reer of ui:;efuluess and blessing, and nuder new fLUspices and with new hopes shall receive a liberal a.ml enthusiastic support from all our people.

The committee offers the following for adoption:

Whiln no communication has come before us in refer~ ence to the newly en terprised work of our church un-

der the supervision of Dr. Hamil, we wish to heartily commend that work. We recommend the formation of Bible Teachers' Study Circles by pastors and superin­tendents of Sunday Schools throughout our Conference for the better equipment of our teachers and for train­ing of new teachers: ·

Our Sunday School publications are of the best and ought to be used in our schools to the exclusion of union literature so-called.

We are glad to note our increase in the number of our Sunday Schools and .pupils. At present there are 278 schools, 1,788 officers and teachers and 13,474 scholars, being au increase over last year of 12 schools, 84 officers· and teachers and 832 scholars ..

!'LORJDA ANNUAL CON!'ERllNOB,

BIBLE CAUSE.

'I'he treasurer of the American Bible Society very .aptly puts the question: Is it not the chief duty of the Church aucl every indiviJual Christian to promote the :spread of the Holy Scriptures, to the knowledge of which we owe our own salvation? And your committee desires, on this occasion, to emphasize as shairply as })OSsible this question, and thus by divine grace to stir up the pure minds and lay upon the hearts and con­sciences of our preachers and people this great work, its needs and its opportunities.

~'or nearly one hundred years this mighty agency for good has been sending out to the people of earth great and ever-increasing stores of the bread of life, the pure word of God, without notes and without comment. And its sphere of operations and consequent blessings continues to widen as the years go by. We note not only with satisfaction, but with_ devout thankfulness, the fact that during the past year there has been an increase in the work of distribution of about 150,000 volumes over the year previous, and that it now requires from ten to twelve millions of copies per annum to supply the demand for the blessed book. "Who can estimate the results to liberty of thought, higher national ideals, truer conceptions of the divine nature and the richer ex­periences of spiritual life growing out of this vast seed­sowing? What will the harvest be?"

It is a matter which calls for the profoundest grati­tude to God that the prayer of the Church for an "open door" is answered, and well-n·igh all outward barriers to this introduction and spread of the Holy Scriptures are now removed.

We also rejoice in the fact that these scriptures are now published in about four hundred languages and dia­lects, thus immeasurably facilitating the work of the missionary as he enters upon his field of labor.

We beg, before closing this report, to call the atten-

M. E. OllUltCll, 80U TU. Si

tion of the members of this Conference to the splendid liberality of the Ame!l'ican Bible Society in proffering to relieve whatever absolute destitution may be found on our works, without money and without ·price, and add that the address of its agent for our territory is Rev. Thos. H. Law, D. D., Spartanburg, S. C.

What a debt the world owes! What a debt we owe this great institution.! How shall we discharge our part · of it? Certainly not by neglecting to bring this matter prominently before <=mr people and their comin~ up to · Conference with a "one dollar" contribution from one's own ·pocket. ''I'herefore, in view of the great importance of this work and our hitherto remissness iu the premises we offer the following:

.Resolved, 'I'hat our presiding officer, at every annual Conference hereafter, be requested to put to each preacher in charge the question: Have you conformed to the requirements of our Book Discipline in regard to the American Bible Society?

T. C. BH.ADFORD, Chairman.

ORPHANAGE.

Your Committee on Orphanage, submit the follow­ing:

We have in the Home at Macon, thirteen children from Florida. We have raised for orphans, cash, $193. 23. and valuable boxes of clothing, the value we do not know. We would remind the Conference that the needs and opportunity for establishing an orphanage has come, and we therefore ask this Conference to delegate to this committee the right of receiving bids and secm·­ing place and property for an orphanage home in the bounds of this Conference. They not to involve the Conference or the property with debt.

We appreciate the help and sympathy and help of Mission Societies and Leagues and Sunday Schools and ask their further help in this direction.

. MEMORIALS TO GENERAL CONFERENCE.

The Plorida Conference of the M. E. Church, South, in session at Live Oak, Fla., December 12-17, 1901, re· spectfully memoralizes its General Conference assem­oled at Dallas, Texas, May, 1902, as follows:

First-That, whereas, the Senate of the United States has declared that our war claim of $288.000 was obtained by the use of deceptive methods on the part of our agents, and whereas a great scandal has grown out of the same, that has caused our church to suffer and greatly disturbed her peace; therefore it is our godly judgment that the General Conference should return the whole amount of said claim to the Senate, thereby satisfying the conscience of our beloved church, by vin­dicating her honor and integrity, in settling right that which can never be settled in any'other way.

Second-That, whereas, it is the mature conviction of this Conference that the order of deaconesses is both apostalic in origin and character and that its reinstitu­tion in our church will be productive of untold good in the addition of another strong arm of service to our al­ready well equipped and splendidly organized system; we therefore request the General Conference to enact a law that will make available for high and holy achieve- · ment the latent but potential forces of thousands of our consecrated women.

Third-That measures be taken that will make our Conference claimants fund connectional in its scope, so that the distribution may be made more equitable, thus aiding the weaker and more burdened conferences.

Fourth-It is further the sense of this Conference that as far as practicable that all of our connectional

J'LORID>. .4.NNUAL OONJ'ERENOB 1

9rgans be cqnsolidated, thus saviqga useless expendi-ture of men and money. , ,,

Fifth-We recommend, that in a way thfctt may be for the glory of God, the Woman's Foreign Missionary Society and the Woman's Home Mission Society be un'ited. · ' ,

(Extract fr O'm the report· of the Bbard of Trustees of the Florida Oonfere~ce College , which follo.w a recital of the conditions which made it inexpedient to try long­er to operate th e college in Leesburg, without such r elease of the property as would be recognized by the donors.) . ·

A committee was appointed. by the Board to secure' from the original donors a recognized release of their claims, or failing in this, to secure an equitable settle­ment. Said committee met the original donors at a called meeting on the evening of May 29th and morning of May 30th, 1901, and submitted the following prop­ositions:

1. 'ro continue our work for another year, and longer if the conditions justified, on condition that an acknowledged ab:;;olute :release of the contract should be

"Now, rt is the sense of this meeting, representing all of the original donors i'.>resent, to ·release the con­ditions of the gift within one year after the conference shall have provided and operated at L eesburg a college with equipments adequate for the accommodation of a number of students, sufficient for the maintenance and well-being of a college of the required grade; the scale and expenses of such equipment and provision to be subject of future negotiations between duly accredited representives of the college and donors.

48 l!'LOJUDA ANNUAL <JONJ'llHEN<Jll,

3. 'l'hat this meeting, having put on record their willingness to release the conditions of the gift upon the conference, doing their part in good faith and to meet the conference in any reasona.ble manner to ena· ble them to do their part, and seeing no ground for arbitration of a contract which is plain in its terms, re­lies upon the contract, and calls upon the conference to do their part."

Our committee then submitted their fourth and final proposition, to surrender all of our college prop· erty, including real estate, buildings, furnishing, library and apparatus in full settlement of all claims. This they declined.

From the foregoing facts it is plain that the original donors represented in the called meeting, avow that we have failed to maintain a college according to the origi­nal contra·ct, and their offer to grant a release demands more than the original contract, and would require upon the part of the Uonference a. greater outlay of funds than we have been able to make during the fourteen years past. As the original donors claim that we have not complied with the contract, notwithstanding the fact that we have expended all that they invested and a much larger sum raised by the· church in founding and maintaining the institution, and as our Board of Educa­tion has listed us as a college, and the charter under which we operate ·so grades us, and the curriculum taught in the school so fixes us, and as the work done has vindicated this claim, we conclude that it is impos­sible tu maintain a school that will meet the demands of the 01·iginal donors. They having refused all the prop· erty in vested by them and us in settlement of their claims, should our church make further investment, and any cause or causes prevent the continuance of our work in Leesburg, we would be confronted with the un· avoidable loss of all our property and still the donors would prosecute their claims against us.

In view of the abov(:! we have discontinued the work

Tn m~moriam. MRS. MARY JANE WATERS, the daughter of

Rev. Dandridge 0. and Susan J. Walton, was born in Barren county, Kentucky, September 25, 1836; wa,s married to Rev. John T. Waters in 1860,' and departed this life at Viola, 'l'ennessee, March 20. 1901.

Our sainted sister was of Methodist lineage: her father and one grandfather, nine uncles and cousins being ministers of our Lord in the Metho­dist Episcopal Church, South. Giving her heart to God in her fifteenth year, she adorned her profes­sion by a godly walk and a pious conversation. Ti1itt0d by heredity and early associations, there was a meetness in the life of a minister's wife which she entered and sustained with honor and blessing for over forty years. Four children were born to bless the married life of Mrs. Waters­three of whom preceded her to the world on high­the fourth, a son, lives to illustrate the example and precepts taught by his Christian mother.

One who knew her well, writes: "In all her church relations Sister Waters was faithful; her walk was consistent; her experience was genuine and satisfactory, and her death a triumph."

And it is ever thus! They who walk with God know nothing of defeat. Even in the final con­flict they are more than conquerors. The power which sustains the soul in lif P- is never missing when the end is nigh. In holy confidence the saints of our Lord await His coming, and in blessed antic­ipation of the glory that shall be revealed have naught to do but breathe their lives out on His bosom.

Our honored friend and brother-a superan­nuate of our conference- is beyond doubt a lonely man, but heaven has unfailing joys for those who sorrow here, and in the hope of a blissful reunion, he awaits the summons which is to call him to his home in the cloudless empire of the saints.

For the Committee, R. L. HoNIKER. ·

Jn mtmoriam. Mrs. Lilian rr. Wilson, eldest daughter of Rev.

Sylvanus and Anna I. 'l'ownsend, of the Baltimore Conference, was born April 9, 1863; married J. Edgar Wilson, October 16, 1883; transferred to Florida in April, 1901, and was t1·anslatec1 to ber hea,venly home .from Jacksonville, November 13, 1901.

Mrs. Wilson had long suffered from tha,t insid­ious and dreaded disease - consumption-and it was hoped that a milder climate might prolong her life even if recovery could not be expected in her case. But the disease was su deeply seated it was soon seen that this hope was vain. Quietly, as sinks the light of day, h er pure spirit ·winged its flight to the cloudless realms of life.

Coming to us a stranger, she soon endeared herself to the people of Ri versicle among whom she dwelt, and the patience and gentleness she dis­played in her last illness made luminous the grace which cheered her passage through the valley and shadow of death.

Her husband and her four boys are indeed be­reft by this dispensation, but it is comforting to believe that she rests in a world where sickness and sorrow, pain and death, are felt and feared no more. For her blooms the amaranth; we, alas, must mar the asphodel!

R. L. HONIKER,

For the Committee.
