Fifth Delegate Synod of Missouri, Ohio, and Other States, 1887. 89

Grant for the Students in St. Louis

Since the synod considered it its duty to make it possible also for
the poor students in St. Louis to follow Dr. Walther's body to the
cemetery, which lies several miles outside the city: Resolved, that the
synod grant the cost of the carriages from the synodical treasury.

Synodical Address and Sermon

Resolved, that both the synodical address and the synodical sermon
delivered by Director Löber at the opening of the synod be sent at once
to the editorial office of the "Lutheraner," so that both address and
sermon may already appear in the next issue of that paper.
