Nachdem Herr J. F. Schuricht, der treuverdiente Kaſſierer der Synode, obigen
Kaſſenbericht gerade angefangen hatte, legte ihn der HErr der Kirche auf ſein
Sterbelager, und der Bericht mußte mehrere Wochen nach ſeinem Dahinſcheiden
von Freundeshand nach ſeinen Büchern beendigt werden. Dieſer Bericht über das
Triennium konnte daher dem Kaſſenreviſionskomitee nicht erſt unterbreitet
werden. Da aber alle Saldi dieſelben ſind und ſein müſſen wie die in dem
Jahresbericht vom 1. Januar 1914, der dem Kaſſenreviſor bei ſeiner letzten
Reviſion vorlag, ſo deckt der Bericht des Kaſſenreviſors auch dieſe
Zuſammenſtellung für das Triennium.

St. Louis, Mo., 13. April 1914.

G. H. Runge, Kaſſierer pro tem.

Komiteebericht.

Es iſt uns durch Herrn Wm. Schlake bezeugt worden, daß die Bücher des ſelig
entſchlafenen Kaſſierers unſerer Synode geprüft und richtig befunden und die
Wertpapiere an den fungierenden Kaſſierer abgeliefert worden ſind. — Bericht
angenommen.

Ehrengedächtnis.

Durch einſtimmigen Beſchluß — mit Aufſtehen — ehrte die große Verſammlung
das Andenken ihres zu ſeliger Ruhe eingegangenen Kaſſierers J. F. Schuricht,
der der Synode mit vorzüglicher Weisheit, ausgezeichnetem Geſchick, großer
Treue und Gewiſſenhaftigkeit viele Jahre lang unentgeltlich gedient hat.

After Mr. J. F. Schuricht, the Synod's faithful and long-serving treasurer,
had just begun the above treasurer's report, the Lord of the Church laid him
on his deathbed, and the report had to be completed several weeks after his
passing, by a friend's hand, from his books. This report covering the
triennium could therefore not first be submitted to the treasury-audit
committee. But since all the balances are, and must be, the same as those in
the annual report of January 1, 1914, which was before the auditor at his
last audit, the auditor's report also covers this summary for the triennium.

St. Louis, Mo., April 13, 1914.

G. H. Runge, Treasurer pro tem.

Committee report.

We have been assured by Mr. Wm. Schlake that the books of our Synod's
treasurer, now fallen asleep in the Lord, have been examined and found
correct, and that the securities have been delivered to the acting
treasurer. — Report accepted.

In honored memory.

By unanimous resolution — with the assembly rising — the great convention
honored the memory of its treasurer J. F. Schuricht, who had entered into
blessed rest, and who served the Synod for many years without pay, with
excellent wisdom, outstanding skill, great faithfulness, and conscientiousness.
