gregations with the work of our Negro Missions; therefore be it

Be it resolved, That the important matter of the constitution and
the organization of a conference of the workers and of lay delegates
in our Colored Missions be given into the hands of a committee which

be it further

Resolved, That Dr. L. Fuerbringer act as chairman of this com-
mittee and appoint the other members of the committee.

support of the work of the Lord. Therefore be it
