Resolutions of thanks.

Dr. Sihler was given the Synod's heartfelt thanks for his services
rendered earlier at the practical preachers' seminary and then at the
College in Fort Wayne.

The Synod likewise resolved to express its thanks to the previous
directorate of the synodical printing house for the self-denying and
unselfish work with which it had served the Synod in this important
matter.

The Synod extends sincere thanks to the whole congregation body of St.
Louis for its hospitable welcome and entertainment.

Public thanks are also extended to the various railroad companies which
granted the synodical members a substantial reduction in fares.

Delegates to the assemblies of our sister synods.

The Synod resolved to send delegates to the assemblies of our sister
synods no longer, partly for the sake of saving costs, and partly because
we now meet together in the Synodical Conference, at which all synods are
represented.

The Delegate Synod.

The first Delegate Synod shall assemble, God willing, on the first
Wednesday of October 1875 at Fort Wayne, Ind., since a friendly
invitation had come from the congregations there. —
