PRAYERS. do, der- Ule. ton, ■ing- iter- oint liac. St. An- >rge. rille, *, St. (St. tnd), lorge ton), •ury. New lich- low. AT OPENING. Prevent us, Lord, in all our doings, with Thy most .gracious favor; and further us with Thy continual help; that in all our works begun, continued and ended in Thee, we may glorify Thy holy name; and finally, by Thy mercy, obtain -everlasting life, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. God, from whom all holy desires, all good counsels, and all works of piety and charity do proceed, we beseech Thee to visit with Thy favour our Sovereign Lady, Queen Victoria, and so rule her heart, that she may in all things seek Thy honour and glory. Prosper with Thy blessing the designs of this Society. Comfort with Thy grace those benefactors who con- tribute to its support. Bless the ministry of Thy servants the Clergy; the endeavors of all who are engaged in spreading the knowledge of true religion in the dominions of our Sovereign, and the labors of those Missionaries who are proclaiming the same in this Province. And may Thy Holy Spirit direct all ■our consultations to the advancement of Thy glory, and the good of Thy Church, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. Merciful God, who hast made all men, and hatest nothing that Thou hast made, nor wouldest the death of a sinner, but that he should be converted and live: Have mercy upon all Jews, Turks, Infidels and Heretics, and take from them all ignorance, hardness of heart, and contempt of Thy Word; and so fetch them home, blessed Lord, to Thy flock, that they may be sav^ among the remnant of the true Israelites and be made one fold under one Shepherd, Jesus ^Christ, our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with Thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, world without end. Amen. Our Father which art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth as it is in lieaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive them that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil; for Thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen. AT CLOSE. The Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, •and the fellowship of the Holy Ghost, be with us all evermore. -Amen. CONSTITUTION. I.

Our organist. Miss Des- brisay, gives her faithful and efficient services voluntarily. The ladies of the Guild take the sweeping of the Church and the care of the lamps two by two each month, in turn, while the bell is rung and lamps lighted by the choristers in order.

In the country we are very hopeful of the future, and the- present as well. We are on the eve of beginning three new churches — at Tatagouche, Salmon Beach, and New Bandon. These we hope to see up and boarded in before winter. I have been so fortunate as to obtain the services of Mr. Allan W. Smithers, of Kings College, Windsor, as lay reader. He is doing a great deal in stirring up the people to a sense of their duties and privileges. I must also gratefully bear wit- ness to the zeal of Mr. R. F. Hutchings, clerk in Read «& Co.'s establishment at New Bandon, who, with the ready help of Miss Douglass, teacher, organized and has kept up a flourish- ing Sunday-school. We expect one of our Apostles to contirmi among us in August, and will have from 80 to 100 candidates in tLe whole Parish. In conclusion, I hope the time is not far off when a. Missionary will take his place at the lower end of the county, as the charge of all the stations is quite beyond the strength and management of one man. I trust that our contributions towards the B. H. M. will exceed those of last year, as then I was unwell and unable to make the canvas projected. 39 BAY DU VIN— REV. W. J. WILKINSON. I beg to report the sum of 150.00 from this Mission towards the general purposes of the Society. We intend (D. V.) building a small church at the village, a settlement about seven miles from Bay du Vin, where there are a few Church families. But if a church is built at once I feel con- fident many, if not all of the others, will eventually join it. A piece of ground has been given, and suitable plans have been procured. The estimated cose of the proposed building is about $600.00. The Metropolitan has already most kindly promised to give us the sum of ^50.00 if we succeed in build- ing it; and Miss Percival gave us $25.00. The collectors who were appointed to solicit subscriptions in the Parish have thought it advisable to wait until the men are paid for their work, which will not be until the middle of August. I hope, however, that by this time next year I will be able to report the completion of the church. The congregations are generally good, and some new names have been added to the communicants' list. I have between twenty and thirty candidates for confirmation thissummer» and I am looking forward to a visit shortly from the Metro- politan for the purpose of confirming them. BURTON— REV. R. SIMONDS Writes that the amount contributed by this Parish is much less than usual. It will be noticed that as the Parish draws nothing from the funds of the Society the contributions are all clear gain. Thev are, for general purposes, $24.77; I. C. F., $17.12— total $41.89. CAMBRIDGE-REV. C. H. HATHEWAY. I closed my last report to the Society saying we expected His Lordship Bishop Kingdon among us in the fall, for con- firmation. His Lordship came, and on Sunday the 17th October confirmed two adults in Saint James Church; one of them had been baptized the day before and was in her 88th year. In the afternoon there was service and confirmation in Saint John's Church, when we used our new organ for the ■i; liiil'ii III! ■■■■■^i : ^ 40 first time, and the altar was enriched with its new frontal and super-frontal, the gift of the good sisters of Kilburn. In the evening His Lordship preached again in Saint Luke's Church to a crowded congregation. Having to go to St. John on Monday to attend a meeting of the B. H. Mission, His Lordship returned to Salmon River on Wednesday, when we had service in the hall in the evening. The following day a few calls were made, and we drove to Salmon Creek and had service in the evening in the school-house. Thursday we drove to Coal Creek, where we had another crowded school- house to witness for the first time in the Parish of Chipman the sacred gift of the laying on of hands. In the afternoon three adults were baptized, and seven were confirmed at the service. All were deeply impressed with His Lordship's kind, loving and encouraging words, and the solemn service seemed to have left a marked effect on those who were present and had never seen a confirmation before. This is the Parish which His Lordship has advocated to be set off as a separate Mission. There is room enough and several places that ought to be visited. The prospects are good, and the v> ork most encouraging, for sixteen have been confirmed in the Parish; and at one station, Coal Creek, there are ten regular com- municants. It is forty miles from where I live, and so I can only give them an occasional service which seems to be very much appreciated; and now that the Central Railway is about to be completed, the Church, if she is to occupy the ground, must take her position there now. On Saturday we drove down the lake to Young's Cove, and on Sunday confirmation was held in Saint Luke's Church in the morning, and in 8aint John's Church in the afternoon, when another adult was baptized and "sealed with the Holy Spirit," and His Lordship preached in St. James' Church in the evening, This visit of our dear Bishop Coadjutor has done much to encourage me, as well as help on the work of the Church in this large Mission, for the Bishop, with his usual generosity, gave me a number of "Sullivan's Church Hymns " to dis- tribute at the various stations which iie visited. This has done much to improve the singing in these places. September 8th was a gala day for Lower Jemseg. The beautiful grounds at Meadow Lands were kindly given by Mr. Scovil for the occasion, and many friends from St. John, Fredericton, and along the river, visited us and bought of our wares. The proceeds were in aid of the Stone Church, and 41 :al and In the Church ihn on a, His len we r day a id had day we school- lipman ;ernoon at the 's kind, seemed ent and Parish separate it ought rk most Parish; ar com- o I can be very is about ground, re drove rmation and in er adult md His ng, much to lurch in [lerosity, " to dis- ?his has g-.

The good people of the Parish Church made a picnic for the purpose of buying an organ, and realized $67.00; so, "when the organ was placed in the church, it was paid for. At another social, held last winter in the Parish of Water- 'borough, we made $63.00, and when this was deposited it imade the sum of $142.95, for repairs on our old church there. "We are now collecting for a bell for the Parish Church, which has had some more improvements made in it by decor- ;ating the walls with a text and cross, over the chancel, and a text in the sanctuary. The contract for our new church has been signed, and we iliope to have the corner stone laid this month. The stone work is to be completed by November 1st. The services, with the exception of one Sunday, have been well maintained; and our register records no marriages, 6 'hurials, 16 confirmed, 23 baptized, 8 of whom were adults. CAMPOBELLO. No report. Mission vacant a portion of the year. CANTERBURY— REV. C. A. S. WARNEFORD. I regret that there should be such a decrease in the sub- scription for the D. C. S., to that of last year from this Parish; but owing to the failure of the Maritime Bank, which has ;greatly effected our people, and the scarcity of hay last spring, when, with but few exceptions, people were compelled to purchase it at a high rate, and with the additional assessment, it has been with difficulty that the necessary amount has been raised to carry on the work in the Parish. But in spite of hard times I cannot say that we have been idle, for since ■September, 1886, there has been built a very suitable Rectory, with woodhouses and barn attached, on the grounds adjoining the church, Canterbury Station, at the cost of $1,200.00; of which $747.00 were obtained by money invested from the sale •of land at Sullivan Creek, $144.00 from the people, in work ;and money, $100.00 from the B. H. M., and the deficiency, irii 'ill !;•' 'M ^m ill 42 $209.00, from myself. Forty dollars have also been raised by a pie social and subscription, for the purpose of repairing and! painting the church at Skiff Lake, which is sadly in need of' improvement. And as the roof of the Parish Church, at the- Station, has become leaky, we hope before another year to be able to re-shingle and, if possible, have the outside painted. I am pleased to state that the Sunday-school is in a flourish- ing condition, having at present thirty-five scholars. Services have been held during the year at both churches< every Sunday, and at Hartin Settlement (a Mission Station five miles away) every alternate Sunday, and at Benton every month alternately by the Rev. Canon Neales and myself; but in future, instead of the monthly service, we intend giving a fortnightly one, and an occasional Sunday. CANNING— REV. N. C. HANSEN. Last year I remember reading in the Halifax Herald that the clergymen met together every year and reported all the- things they had done but ne/er said a word about what they had left undone. In my Parish a great many things have >~con left undone — too many to mention. Among the most important, however, I may mention the need of classes for the instruction of adults in Church doctrine and Bible truth, and; of Sunday-schools in two of my stations, I am not, however, entirely to blame. I have been left Deacon in charge of an area extending over 3G3 square miles, and including part of the Parishes of Sheffield, Northfield, Canning, and Chipman,. and I cannot do my duty properly in any of them. I find an amazing ignorance of the Bible and of the Church. A grow- ing inability to distinguish differences in doctrine, and the spirit of Pilate — What is truth? are among my heart-sickening experiences. So long as the preacher is clover, and earnest, hundreds seem to think he must be all right, and call you dreadfully narrow and uncharitable if you hint that he is^ unsound. The Church is not popular. She still holds on to the old fashioned Gospel truths, and follows the beaten path of her forefathers, and there is nothing sensational and exciting and rousing to the feelings in her doctrine. Not including Maugerville, where I go once a month, I have services in six places; yet there are only, in all six places^ 4 5 ,! 43 iised by ing and^ need of , at the- ar to be tinted, lourish- !hurches« Station on every 5elf; but giving a raid that 3d all the- hat they ngs have the most es for the ruth, and! however, irge of an g part of 3hipman,. I find an A grow- and the sickening 1 earnest, i call you hat he is^ to the old ath of her exciting month, I six places^ found about one hundred souls over 12 years of age belonging to the Church. Owing to the great drought last year there was a famine here in hay and crops, and the stock had to be butchered. It was therefore with the greatest difficulty that the people eked out their existence during the winter, and raised the assessment to the support of their minister. The- Church people, as Mr. Williams has well reported, are all poor, and our thanks are due to dissenters who have con- tributed nearly one-half of the assessment. There is, how- ever, little hope that they will continue their kindness after- the novelty of my accent, voice and style has been worn otf. If, therefore, 8200.00 have to be raised, and quarterly pay- ments made, the Mission, in all probability, will shortly be vacant. To show that I have not been entirely idle, I state what I' Jiave done. The first Sunday in the month I attend Sunday- school, morning and afternoon services at Newcastle Bridge,, and evening service at Little Kiver. The second Sunday in* the month I have two services in Maugerville, and Sunday- school in the afternoon. The third Sunday in the month,, counting Saturday evening, I have services at Salmon River, Salmon Creek, Newcastle, and Little River, driving during the Sunday and between the services '2G miles. As I have to. play the organ in two of the places, and considerable of the choir responsibility fulls to my share in the other two, it > xy be called a good day's work. The fourth Sunday I have morning service at Little River, Sunday-school in the after- noon, and evening service at Douglas Harbor. Every Wed- nesday I have a Bible class and choir practice at Newcastle, and Saturday night I have a choir practice at Little River.. Much more might be done if so much time had not to be spent on the roads, and if the roads were not so fearfully bad. Among the encouraging places I may mention Little River.. Here, entirely through the energy of Mr. Sterling, a handsome little church has been built and consecrated during the year. Three Church members used to do all the responsive part; the rest sat and stared. Now only an exceptional one adheres to his seat. The musical part, I venture to say, is unrivalled in any country place. Bridge water's service in A., Dyke's, and Sullivan's Te Deum, are learnt with the greatest ease, and are well sustained by all parts. Hymns are sung with cheerfulness, and the Psalms and chants with ex- pression. Such improvement on Gospel hymns andi ill '!■: !■: liiiii' ! 'ill ill i 44 Tead chants cannot but be cheering both to the minister and -congregation. In fact, I believe the musical part of our services have an immense tendency to cheer and edify, and I have given it a great deal of attention, and the result has been almost doubled congregations in the time I have been here. Churches and halls are always well filled; all denominations attending. Our subscription to the Society will be small this year. •Our list, however, is not completed. CARLETON— REV. 0. G. DOBBS Reports contributions for General Purposes, .$23.30. CHATHAM— REV. D. FORSYTH. I have nothing of special interest to report to the Society, iT^eyond the usual routine of Parish work, which has, I am thankful to say, been continued without interruption during the past year. Two Sunday-schools have been established, in •addition to the school in connection with Saint Mary's Chapel, viz. : One at Saint Paul's (Parish) Church, and one at the Mission Station in Douglasfield. It is now hoped that with iihree schools in the Parish, in which the admirable series of Manuals of Christian Doctrine known as the Bishop Doane -series, is used, a greater interest may be awakened in the im- portant matter of Sunday-school instruction. I am thankful for the valued help of such teachers as are willing to assist, as a mattei" of sacred duty, in the instruction of the young members of Christ's flock; but I would rejoice to see more men devoting themselves to this praiseworthy branch of Church work. The ladies of the Young Women's Guild, although not ^numerous, have bravelv continued the meetings of the organ- ization, and in addition to much charitable aid rendered to the poor, have succeeded in considerably augmenting the -Restoration Fund of Saint Mary's Chapel. The meetings of the Juvenile Guild have also been continued without inter- iruption. The second anniversary of the Guild was celebrated on Nov. 16th, 1886, with a service in Saint Mary's Chapel, .at which the children were ably addressed by the Rev. 0. S. 1 'I A 45 lister and t of our [y, and I ; has been )een here, minations this year. 30.

After the service there wass a social festival in the Sunday-school house, where the mem- bers of the Guild, with their parents and friends, and the- Clergy of the Rural Deanery, spent an hour in pleasant intercourse. In anticipation of an early visit from the Metropolitan, who has signified his intention to hold confirmations in the northern Parishes, I am now preparing a large class of candi- dates for the holy rite. In regard to our contributions to the Diocesan Church Society, the collection of which is not yet completed, I have to say that if ever depression in business has been properly urged as a reason for smaller contributions, it may so be made- use c* at the present time. It will not, therefore, be sur- prising if, after providing for our parochial expenses, and' contributing to Foreign and Domestic Missions, as usual, we fall short of our customary aid to the General Purposes Fund. I can, however, assure the Society of our interest in its good work; and I hope for the best substantial proofs of this inter- est from those who have the cause of God and His Church really at heart. I cannot conclude my report without reference to the great loss the Church in this Parish has sustained during the past year, in the removal by death of G. A. Blair, Esq. Mr. lilair's usefulness to the Church as a valued member of the • Diocesan Church Society, and Diocesan and Provincial Synods, is too well known to require any word of recognition in this place. Able in speech, and Judicious in deliberation, we must feel the loss of one who long and faithfully attended to- the duties of a delegate to this Society, and representative in the Svnodical Councils of the Church. I de»ire to bear my testimony to his faithful contributions to the Society's funds and his continual interest in its work. For more than thirty years he was a diligent helper in Sunday-school work, impart- ing to his scholars, with peculiar aptness, the first principles of the doctrine of Christ. During the nearly fifteen years of my knowledge of him as a parishioner I never knew him to be absent from public worship or Sunday-school, when it was possible for him to attend. For many years he was a member of the Vestry of Saint Paul's Church, and its efficient and painstaking Treasurer. Being thus a man whose salutary ex- ample and influence the Church in our times can ill afford to- lose, I deem it good to make this mention of one of her faith- ful and loyal sons. !i ; 46 Mllili^ 1 1 li fs:!ii; 'iti i I In conclusion, I am thankful for the Divine blessings of another year of grace — for health to work for an indulgent Master, for words and deeds of kindness to cheer, for diffi- ^culties to humble, and for hope that maketh not ashamed. Influenced by these blessings, I beg to offer the Society the assurance of my own continued though humble efforts in be- half of its purposes, for the glory of God and the good of His Church. DERBY— REV. A. F. HILTZ. I! :i ! 11 ^^-U: i The principal event that I am called upon to record in my report this year is the visit of the Bishop Coadjutor in October last. His Lordship visited both churches in my Mission, and confirmed thirty-one candidates. At Derby I had the satis- faction of presenting for this holy rite a class of thirteen — the •largest number presented here at any one time in the history •of the Parish. This, taken in conjunction with the fact that the number of candidates has steadily increased at every con- firmation during my incumbency, is, to my mind, a pretty 'dear indication of permanent progress. When His Lordship arrived we had just completed the repairs of our Parish Church, and very pretty it looked with its renovated interior and the light reflected from its newly painted walls. It would require • a good deal of space to give anything like a full account of the work done on this church during the last season. 1 can- not, however, refrain from mentioning that the sum of !^74:3 has been expended upon it. And in doing so the building was raised about one foot, and a solid sub-structure of stone- 'masonry set beneath it, with an average depth of five and a half feet. The walls were repaired, painted and wainscotted, and the chancel adorned with a handsome reredos of panel work and a beautiful stained-glass window, erected to the memory of the late Rev. Jas. Hudson. The church yard, also, was surrounded by a substantial paling fence. The sum of $250.00 has been subscribed towards building a • church for Nelson, and this work will doubtless be undertaken this summer. As this is my tenth annual report, and as I am about re- moving to another field of labor, it may not be improper for •me to give a few statistics respecting the progress of the work 'in my Mission during my incumbency. While thus reviewing 47 lessiugs of indulgent for diffi- ashamed. society the arts in be- le good of icord in my • in October lission, and id the satis- lirteen — the the history he fact that t every con- id, a pretty lis Lordship fish Church, ior and the ould reciuire account of son. 1 can- um of =§74:3 le building ure of stone- f five and a wainscotted, jdos of panel ected to the ih yard, also, is building a undertaken am about re- improper for J of the work lus reviewing «my work, I am conscious of having made many mistakes, and had I the same work to do over again, with my present ex- 5)erience, would do it dififerently, and, I trust, with better results. But it is always a satisfaction to know that one's knowledge never comes too late while one is alive to profit by if. As it is, however, in summing up the apparent results of «ny labors in this Mission, there is much to make me *' thank •God and take courage." During the past ten years $G,000 has been contributed in this poor country Mission towards Church purposes. Of this •sum $2,54:8 has gone towards the stipend of the Rector, $1,072 represents contributions of D. C. S., and the balance, $2,380, has been expended in improving the property of the Church, including also some small sums given to Domestic and Foreign Missions. I solemnized 218 baptisms, 22 marriages, and 44 burials. Four confirmations have been held, and 08 candi- dates presented. This represents a very large increase in the Church, with but a small loss. And if the Mission were in the state I would like to see it, these numbers would represent a large roll of communicants. Instead of this, however, I have only 42 on my books. And yet, small as this number is, when taken in connection with the number I found on entering this field, the results are not so disheartening as at first sight they would appear. Then there were only 10 com- municants. The gross increase during ten years has been 09; and if we could have retained all these, we should now have ■85, which would be a very creditable number. But we have lost, and lost heavily, either by death, by removals, or by neglect to communicate. We have lost 43 — or more than the full number now on our roll. And yet the number remain- ing is very nearly three times what it was when I came. The ^ross increase every year has been 7, or nearly one-half the original number, the net increase 2|, and the loss something over 4. Thus, when viewed by itself, the small number of ■communicants gives the impression of a very low state of spiritual life; but when compared with the past, it indicates a steady advance. And although it is not so rapid as one could desire, yet, perhaps, it is as great as could be reasonably ex- pected under the circumstances. And let us hope that the Ood of all grace, to whom are due our most hearty thanks for past mercy and progress, will pour out His Spirit without measure upon these dry bones of the valley, and make them live to the honor of His name. 48 DORCHESTER— REV. J. ROY CAMPBELL. ■i: \U : ■in I ! II iljl il I have much pleasure in saying that, although we have- suffered more than commonly during the year past, from- deaths, misfortunes, and removals, I am still able to report $100 for the general purposes of the Society. I speak from what I know when I say that, the circumstances considered, I look upon this as the largest offering ever made to the Society from this Parish. As an argument in the right direction, I would like to say that when solicited two of the Society's sub- scribers were suffering from very serious loss of property, with the prospect of still greater loss; yet neither lessened nor withdrew, but both slightly increased their subscriptions. And in the same cheering connection I may add, as showing that it is never too late to do good, that the Society's latest, and in this sense youngest subscriber (John Palmer, Esq., $5)' is in the ninety-ninth year of his age. Our work continues to present uncornmon difficulties, not unrelieved however by cheering signs. Over fifty communi- cants have removed from the Parish during my residence; but I am thankful to be able to say that the roll of communicants is being gradually enlarged; the ranks of which are being chiefly recruited by the younger members of the congregation. It is now more than two years since, at a meeting called for the purpose, and held according to the law of the Church, the pew owners present unanimously resolved to re-seat the church and make it free; but as a strong contrary wind be- gan to blow the same night, and is still blowing, that noble and generous resolution remains a resolution still — to the great injury and hindrance of all Church work. But the de- tails of the case are sufficiently well understood by all who are directly and indirectly concerned, as well as by the Lord.' Bishop of the Diocese. On the first Sunday after Trinity (June 12th), 1887, the Metropolitan administered the rite of confirmation to eighteen persons. His Lordship was much pleased with the several improvements which had been made since his last visit — this being the fourth time that the sacred rite has been adminis- tered during my incumbency of five years. :! J ■J 'i 49 DOUGLAS AND BRIGHT WITH QUEENSBURY AND SOUTHAMPTON— REV. W. LeB. McKIEL. For a longtime Queensburv and Southampton have appeared on the list of prospecjtive Missions, to be supplied whenever funds were available. During the last year the Board of Home Missions made the necessary grant, and now with thankful feelings we write that the Bishop has appointed and sent a Clergyman to fill the Mission, whose work will begin forth- with. During the last week, in company with the Rev. Scovil Neales, I visited all the Church people in the two Parishes, going from house to house. Everywhere he was warmly wel- comed, and he enters on his work with encouraging prospects. The record of all country Missionaries will be that last winter was one of the worst ever known for carrying on mis- sion work in the back settlements and distant outposts, and yet I atiji 'ul to say, succeeded admirably, having now nearly eno?r ^ pay the whole debt. At Christmas we were kindly rem ,\ «/Bd b^ the Parishioners who filled the lurder with lots ui good things, besides giving other tokens of their good- will and esteem. The Parish also has been the recipient of a beautiful present in the form of a silver sett of Holy Communion vessels, which (with the exception of a small offertory from the Parish towards that object), is the entire gift of our beloved and benevolent Diocesan. For which, as well as for many other kindnesses he has shown us, we cannot be too grateful. There is much that is encouraging in the work of the Parish. But as it is elsewhere, I suppose, the clouds gather some- times, but the sunshine returns, and the prospects look brighter, and we are encouraged to hope that under the direction of the Good Providence of our God many of the souls yet indifferent may be awakened to a sense of their duties and privileges, and that many more yet straying may be gathered into His fold. Ihe subscriptions to the Society are not yet completed, but they will, we trust, be not less than one hundred dollars when all the returns are in. that, ott sclear is Churches as within KINGSTON.— REV. H. S. WAINWRIGHT. No report. l;l '■ < iii!:i; 56 LUDLOW AND BLISSFIELD.— REV. H. MONTGOMERY. :il: jiif: ii'ii Through the kindness of my Parishioners in Kingsclear, who, at a meeting held last December, voted to relinquish one Sunday service a month, for the benefit of this new and yet old Mission. I have been enabled to give to Ludlow services one Sunday in each month and a week-day service once a month. The Parish of Ludlow, as most of the members of this Society are aware, is situate along the banks of the renowned Miramiehi River, about fifty miles distant from Fredericton. Among its earliest settlers were the sons of the late Rev. Walter Price, first Missionary in charge of Saint Mary's, or what was then known as the Mission on the Nash- waaic. So that from the very first settlement of Ludlow, it might be said to have been distinctively a Church Parish. To-day there are many living there who are the descendants of Mr. Price, and by far the largest portion of them have re- mained loyal to the Church of their fathers. In the early days of the Parish, Missionary visits were paid by the Rev. Mr. Price, who afterwards settled in the Parish, whose letters of deacons orders, dated August y3rd, 1772, are preserved in the new Church. After his death occasional visits were paid by the late Rev. Dr. McCawley, and the Rev. Samuel Bacon. But it was not until the late Rev. James Hudson, (or Father Hudson as he is still affectionately called in the Mission), was appointed visiting Missionary for the River Miramiehi that regularly appointed services were held. Once a month regularly, road and weather permitting, Mr. Hudson visited and ministered to the people of this Mission. Shortly before his death he told them they would be neglected after ho was gone, and alas, his prophecy proved in a great measure, only too true. With the exception of occasional visits bv the Rev. Mr. Cruden, Missionary in Derby and Nelson, they liad had no regular services or ministrations of the Church since Mr. Hudson's death. Mr. Cruden is his report to theSociety for the year 1874, says: "Three or four " times last summer and once this spring I visited the out- ** lyin^ Parishes of Blissfield and Ludlow, formerly part of the " Mission of the late Ret. James Hudson, but now destitute " and likely to remain so, of all Church of England services " unless some provision can be made by the Society for their ** spiritual wants. When it can be stated to the members of '' this Society, that there are some one hundred souls in this 1 •0 tl 57 V services ;! ^* district belonging to the Church, they will readily under- ■** stand how important it is to use active measures, and thus ** prevent that gradual but sure alienation that will take place -*' should these Church-men find themselves left out in the "*' cold." But the Society seems to have been unable to answer Mr. Cruden's appeal, and to use his own expression, " They were left out in the cold, notwithstanding they had •contributed to the funds of the Society that year the sum of thirty dollars." In the following year, Mr. Cruden still pleads for a division of his extensive Mission. In the Report for 1876, ihe writes: " There are upwards of 800 members of the Church ** of England on the South-west Miramichi. Two Churches, ^' and I hope before next meeting to be able to write three — ■*' such will be the case if the Churchmen of New Brunswick ** will assist the efforts of the Churchmen of Ludlow in erect- ■** ing such an edifice for the worship of God, according to •** the rites and ceremonies of the Church of England." Still there was no answer to the appeal, and we hear no more of Ludlow until the year 1878 when the Rector of Derby writes: ■** With regard to Ludlow where there are a few families ** weakly attached to the Church, I would respectfully suggest ** that it is too remote from headquarters to permit me to give •" it such attention as would be profitable, viz. : as would •" strengthen their attachment to the Church and build them " up into a congregation that might at a future day become " a nucleus of a new Parish. Unless this can be done, labor ** in my opinion, bestowed there might be more advantageously " expended elsewhere." I could, however, give them four Tisits yearly, and if the Missionaries at Stanley and Saint Mary's would do likewise, a monthly service might be provided for them, and their hearts cheered until the way could be •opened for placing a missionary in their midst. But even this suggestion seems not to have been carried out, and the 'Churchmen of Ludlow were then left entirely for nine years without the ministrations of the Church, depending alto- gether upon the dissenting Ministers, who seem always to have 'been very active among them, for baptisms, marriages and burials. Such was the state of the Mission when two years ago it was visited by His Lordship the Bishop Coadjutor, and the Rev. Mr. Sterling. Since that visit Ludlow has become better known, and thanks to the untiring interest and zeal of the Bishop Coadjutor, new life and new energy have been •developed in the Mission, and brighter hopes seem to be in ; 11 ,1 1 I'll 1-1 1 !■ 68 store for the 280 Church of England members of the Parish of Ludlow, (this is the number registered in the census for 1881)^ Last year a new Church was begun, and to-day is completed, ready for consecration. This beautiful edifice stands a memorial, in a double sense; first, as a memorial to the First Missionary on the Miramichi, and as a memorial in an answer to the earnest prayers of a faithful Churchman of Ludlow, who for many years had not ceased to offer up petitions- to the Great Head of the Church, that an holy house con- secrated to His service might be erected in the Mission, with the services of the Church regularly ministered in it. After patiently waiting the answer came, and now I trust I may be- pardoned, if in my report I shall be somewhat personal. But I would be very remiss in my duty towards the Churchmen of Ludlow, in not alluding to the interest and the unflagging zeal of His Lordship the Bishop Coadjutor in their behalf. It is chiefly owing to his kindness and persevering efforts that under the good Providence of God there stands upon the land given by the faithful Churchman to whom I just referred one of the handsomest and most beautifully arranged country Churches in the Diocese. For this substantial help on the part of the Bishop Coadjutor there is but one sentiment in the hearts of the Churchmen of Ludlow, which finds expression in the prayer, " God bless the dear Bishop and may he long^ be spared and never have cause to know that his efforts here were in vain." I will conclude by briefly referring to the pro- gress of the work in Ludlow since last January when I began regular services there. During the winter 1 was prevented from fulfilling some of my engagements — owing to the heavy- storms and blockades on rail, but since then the work has gone- on regularly. The congregations have always been large and very attentive. During my first visit I baptized eight child- ren in one family, nearly all of whom were ill with the scarlet fever; and the mother a cummunicant of the Church witb tears in her eyes, told me I was the first Clergyman she had seen for nine years. Another loyal Churchman told me that if they had not remained steadfast in the faith and had not taught their children to be firm and loyal, there would be few^ Church-people in the Mission to-day. Altogether I have baptized twelve children and four adults — and there are three- adult candidates preparing for baptism at the present time. There are also forty-six persons who have given in their name» as candidates for confirmation, all of whom I hope to pre- a 59 sent to the Bishop for that holy ordinance in the autumn.. There are about forty families and parts of families whom T know are members of the Church of England, and I have not. been able as yet to hunt up all those who claim the Church' for their mother. Th*^ "ork has been highly interesting andi encouraging. '^' j i- , ^e themselves ar? w. j enthusiastic- and eager for the ceachu^rt which the Church nas to give them.. They seem desirous to do their part in building up the Church- of their fathers, and in helping to make the Mission of Lud- low a stronghold of the faith once for all delivered to the saints. Finally, we ask your prayers that the blessing of the divine- Master may rest upon them, and the work that the Church, has begun in their midst. The subscriptions to the D. C. S. amount to $51.03. MONCTON— KEV. J. H. TALBOT. I have very little to say so far about the work in Moncton,. save that at a visit paid by His Lordship the Bishop Coadjutor twenty-eight persons were confirmed, several of whom had been brought up in the denominations and have now sought their true home. Financially the Parish is far from flourishing. I found a. debt (caused bv steady excess of expenditure over income) of about $600. 1?his excess has been stopped, and the balance* is beginning to turn towards the other side. But last year- Rev. A. J. Reid reported the necessity of a new rectory, which, should be wholesome if not handsome; and the other day a committee appointed to examine the church reported that aa expenditure of about |500 this summer is necessary to make- the building habitable next winter. This adjourns sine die- the question of building a rectory, and makes it diflBcult to« ?et out of debt. Notwithstanding, the contributions to the* ). C. S. will not fall below those of last year, and I think, will exceed them by about 115. MUSQUASH— REV. H. M. SPIKE. No report. i ■ 1' 60 NEWCASTLE— REV. J. H. S. SWEET. •iHI'i '■'{■: ;!iiiil a ; I' h 'li.r i My report this year must necessarily be a brief one. Noth- ing of any special interest to the Society, or calling for re- mark, has taken place during the past twelve months. Since my last report the ordinary work of a quiet and compact IParish has been carried on steadily and without any serious interruption. Not that all has been sunshine with us; merci- ful trials have been sent us, for which we thank God and take courage. Speaking mainly from a financial point of view, failures and the loss of members by removal, have con- siderably crippled our means, and made it a matter of grave anxiety as to whether the Mission can be continued under the present heavy assessment. A yearly increasing assessment, with no corresponding resources, must necessarily bring about ■ a climax sooner or later. At the same time I do not wish it to be thought for a •moment that the Church in Newcastle is making no progress. In fact I look upon the progress made during the past year as greater and more permanent than that of any similar period during my incumbency. In spite of opposition from those from whom one might have expected better things — who at one time **did run well" — the faithful few are becoming more faithful and more convinced of the truth as taught by the Anglican Branch of the Catholic Church of Christ, and •others at present outside of her fold are being attracted by the power of Catholic truth, and will, I have every reason to hope, soon seek admission to her fold. Before I close there is one important particular which I am •anxious to bring before this Committee. I am told on the best authority that the present energetic and hard working .Rector of Derby is about to resign that Parish. In case of that event taking place, and before a new appointment is f a Tract difEerence 11 not be Among by clergy- 3 Ryle, in very cele- y Church ow by the aly can re- ) the Great or import- ission. as gone on Q baptized; their rest. who have tinued and been at all performed, ngregation, )f the altar, anks. The and a com- nd. s faithfully lOW NORTON— REV. K A. WARNEFORD. Contributions to the General Purposes of the Society amount to $62 15. I have nothing of any especial interest to relate; during the past, the services have been uninterrupted with the exception of those during the holy season of Lent, when the weather was such that there were only two held at the Parish Church, but at the Chapel of Ease they were more fortunate and never missed one. The Holy Rite of Confirmation held last summer, has added to our list of communicants, and may those then confirmed never forget the faithful and loving words of the Bishop Ooadjutor. I am very sorry to say that during the last few months I have been called upon to bury no less than eight of our parishioners, a sad loss to the reduced number of Church members. It is only but a short time since I had to report the death of Mrs. Charles Dixon, sr., who had been for many years such an help to the Church, and now, among those lately removed, I have to deplore that of Mrs. Charles Dixon, .jr., whose early death is sadly felt by the members of the choir of which she was a regular attendant until within a few "weeks of her death. PETERS VILLE- REV. W. HENRY STREET. Reviewing my work during the year past, I am faithfully •conscious of the much left undone. Difficulties which seem almost insurmountable need to be overcome with that patience ;and self-denial, which the Missionary fears he does not possess. Though the helping hand of the Society will be needed for some time to come in a field like this, if we expect to hold •even our own, still, we may be sure that no progress will be made among those outside the fold, unless members of our ^communion give their undivided support, and thus show 'true loyalty to a Church whose privileges they enjoy, and in whose principles they t)rofess to believe. Notwithstanding this somewhat gloomy preface, I can, 4ihank God, report work done. 64 ; * ^'iillli There is the little Church at Welsford, this time last year badly out of repairs, now presenting a very different appear- ance. The exterior has been repaired and painted. The interior looks Church-like and neat, with its walls renovated and partly sheathed with beautiful ash, and the light in the- Chancel no longer giving a distored view of nature, but re- placed by one with less pretension, but more satisfactory, to be succeeded, I hope, some day, by another expression of some fact of our faith. The Parish Church, separated ten miles from the Rectory, was also painted last summer. The services there during th& winter are always very unsatisfactory. Situated on the top- of the largest hills in New Brunswick, with no shelter for horses, and the building exposed to the full force of storms- It appears to the great portion of the congregation inacces- sible at such seasons, and the Parson has but little encourage- ment, indeed is looked upon as wanting in common sense, if he attempts at any time to bid defiance to the weather. However, with few exceptions I have been able during the year to keep my appointments. I must confess that owing to the Rectory being at such a distance from the centre of work, it is not always possible to keep up the constant visiting that people seem to expect. My list of contributions is not completed. I shallrdo my best to have an increase over that of last year. I ri ! i li < liii; : PETITCODIAC— REV. CUTHBERT WILLIS. I regret to say that our list of contributors this year and the amount of contributions will not reach in number and amount the figures of last year. Our numbers have been sadly thinned by emigration westward, and by death. One of my church wardens and his family has gone to the States, and others have followed him. The bad crops of last year have been felt ihis spring, and consequently it has been very difl&- cult to make up the assessment. The work in the Mission has been carried on as usual, with the addition of regular Sunday services in Salisbury. Work has also been done outside of my wide mission, in Elgin, Albert Co., and that district. The services generally have been well attended, and my assistant, Mr. Harte, from the 65 Diocepo of Montreal, an experienced Lay Reader, has done and is doing good work. Owing to a difficulty in procuring a proper site we have not yet commenced the new church at Salisbury; but the material is ready at hand when once we make a commencement. The Bishop Coadjutor kindly visited us and opened the hall which we had furnished at Salisbury as a Mission Room, and ad- dressed good congregations both morning and evening; and in October confirmed a class of twent}- three persons at Petitcodiac. PRINCE WILLIAM— REV. ARTHUR LOWNDES. The statistical table will give the usual particulais a.- to the services, etc., and I have little to report of general interest. As to the fabrics in the Parish, 1 can only say that the churches of Saint John (Magundy), and Saint Clement (Apple River), are in the same sad state as ever. I have, however, great hopes that before another year passes by, I may have to record the erection of, or at any rate, the commencement of a new church at Magundy. Through the kind recommend- ation of the Bishop the S. P. C. K. has generously granted ns $125 towards the erection of this church, and if all, as I have no doubt, will work together, I see no reason why the building should not be erected and completed next year. All Saints, Magaguadavic, is now, I .if thankful to state, completely repaired and nothing remains to be done to the fabric of the church, though I would appeal to kind friends outside of the Parish for the adornmont of the sanctuary, and I take this occasion to thank Mrs. Frederick Jones of the neighboring Parish of Manneis-Sutton for the present of a white super-frontal. All three churchyards are still uncared for. I cannot see why that of All Saints should not be laid out in paths and a few flowering shrubs planted, nor why the churchyards at- tached to St. John or St. Clement should be such a wilder- ness of weeds and undergrowth. The Rectory has had some much needed repairs, but it will require considerably more work to put it in a complete state of repair. We have suffered from emigration of Church people from 5 66 il!!i -ill II iiiiiii \4 ! the Parish during the past year, and I fear we shall suffer still more so before the year is out. It is a matter of sincere congratulation to me and to many of my people that Queensbury, or more properly speaking Millville, is at last to be served by a resident Clergyman. While I do not think that the other neighboring Parish, that of Manners-Button, has equal claims with other vacant parishes in the Diocese for the support of a resident Clergy- man, yet I do think that something ought to be done, even if it were only in the way of encouraging the maintenance of Sunday-schools at a few points in that populous Parish. I cannot omit to put on record my feelings of the sense of gratitude which the Church owes to Mr. James Henry, who was compelled last year to resign his wardenship through failing health. For forty years and more Mr. Henry has been Church Warden, and every Clergyman in charge of this Parish, from its first incumbent, 'Mr. Parker, has found a staunch friend in him and a zealous co-operator in all good works. In conclusion I wish to thank my parishioners for the many and increasing acts of kindness so spontaneously shown me and my wife during the past year. KESTIGOUCHE— REV. C. D. BROWN. I came into the charge of this extensive Mission (it com- prises the County of Restigouche) somewhat over a year ago. As I had been here only a few weeks when the D. C. S. met last year, I thought it unnecessary to send in any report for that time. The Mission had been vacant for several months Sreviousl^: since which time Sunday services have been con- noted with regularity in Dalhousie and Campbellton, with twe exception of three Sundays in the latter place, when I failed to get through the snow drifts; one or two of these were held by Mr. Armstrong, our Lay Reader. The attend- ance at these services has been on the whole very fair. Other services have been held on the principal days appointed in the Book of Common Prayer, with extra ones iu Lent. Also a Wednesday evening service each week at Campbellton, some of which were held by Mr. Armstrong; and a Friday evening service regularly at Dalhousie. The attendance at all the week day services is small — smaller than it need be. All our services are characterized by earnestness, and the responding ift always hearty. 67 At Dalhonsie a part of the debt on the Rectory has been paid, chiefly by the efforts of the ladies and our good Trea- «urer, Mr. »mith, who also have gathered together a nice sam towards the purchase of a new organ, which we hope to hear •in the church in a few weeks. The remaining debt will very probably be paid by the end of the year, when the Mission will be clear of debt. The Church and Rectory require to be newlv painted outside. when I came into the Parish I found a Sunday-school in •operation under the superintendence of Mrs. Cowperthwaite. The attendance is good and the teachers are faithful in their work. During the vacancy of the Parish the ladies of the Camp- bellton congregation made preparation for a bazaar. It took place shortly after I came, and realized over $300. Of this sum $114 is on hand for the purchase of a bell for the church, being the proceeds of Mrs. Ackroyd's things. The balance went to pay some old standing debts, leaving still a certain amount due, which, however, was settled for at the Easter Testry meeting. As there are only a few children in this con- gregation the Sunday-school is small, but it is well conducted by the teachers who take great interest in their useful work. I am thankful to have had the help of Mr. Armstrong, who ds acting as Lay Reader, licensed by the Bishop at my request. His work is much appreciated by the congregation. Generally 'each alternate Sunday evening he holds an extra service. He •also held one each week in Lent, and on two Sundays in Dalhousie when I was absent in some other part of the Parish. Our contributions to the D. 0. S. will not be less, I hope, than last year, viz., $84.45. RICHMOND— REV. E. J. P. B. WILLIAMS. The services have been continued as usual throughout the year, except between the months of December and April, when, owing to the continuous storms, which generally were worse at the end of tlie week, I had to miss manj of my ap- pointments in the outlying stations in the Parish. There nave been 24 baptisms — 2 being adults, 10 funerals, 7 con- firmed, and 2 couples married. Contributions for the Church Society, owing to yarious (reasons, are only $45.39.

Since then services have been held regularly in each part of the Parish, and well attended. Bible and Prayer Book classes have also been well attended. The people gen- erally evince deep interest in church matters, and as an evi- dence of their attachment to the Church, I sliall be able to transmit nearly one hundred dollars to the Treasurer of the D. C. S. this year for the general purposes of the Society. Fifteen candidates are now being prepared for confirmation. ROTHESAY— REV. W. HANCOCK. No report. SACKVILLE— REV. C. E. WIGGINS.

In spite of general depression, this year finds us hotter off than last. The financial condition of the Parish has consider- ably improved, and the envelope system, though looked upon with disfavour by some, has been productive of good effect. Last autumn a good barn was built beside the Rectory, and the old fence, which was in a very dilapidated condition, has been replaced by a new one. The Metropolitan visited us in June for confirmation and addressed a meeting of the local committee of the D. C. S. lii^ 69 January gularly in ^nd Prayer 3ople gen- as an evi- be able to rer of the le Society. I'mation. The services at St. Martins, in the woods, are very well attended, and it seems probable that steps will have to be taken before long for increasing the seating capacity of the ohurch. At St. Andrews' Church regular Sunday and week-day services are held, with a monthly celebration of Holy Com- munion, and a Sunday-school has been started. The special collections during the year have been good, and I hope, when we have finished our collecting, to send a substantial contribution to the General Purposes of the Society. SIMONDS— REV. GEO.

On the first he con- firmed six persons at Coldbrook, and on the second, fourteen at Black River. My esteemed friend and Lay Reader, G. Herbert Lee, Esq., kindly accompanied us on both occasions. Some of those confirmed I had baptized in infancy, and it was a great gratification to me to witness their admission to the full fellowship of the church. His Lordship gave them a great deal of useful advice, which I hope will be useful to them as long as they live. Our Sunday-school at Coldbrook is well attended, and the children every Sunday repeat simultaneously the creed, the ten commandments, and the Lord's prayer. At Golden Grove we have a Sunday-school attended by twenty-two young men and women, who receive instruction from three of our communicants there. One of these, Mr. Churchill, is organizing another class at the further Grove, which I hope will be useful to the young men and women there. The shipyards at Black River and Gardiner's Creek are still silent. This has compelled some persons to remove from the district, and seriouslv reduced the incomes of those who remain, for they have now to rely entirely on their small farms for support. To their honor be it said they have not reduced their contributions to the church, although their own home comforts have been seriously affected. The failure at Black River of Messrs. Wallace, and also of the Messrs. McLeod, and the consequent closing of their ship- yards, throwing out of employment about one hundred and 70 thirty men, will render it extremely difficult, if not absolutely- impossible to obtain any free contributions for the D. G. Sk at present. I regret this very much, and so do my parish* ioneers, but we cannot help it. During: the year I have officiated at twenty-three baptisms,, six marriages, and three fnnerals. I am greatly indebted to G. Herbert Lee, ^^•» for hi» faithful and acceptable services as Lay Reader at Goldbrook. The services have been well attended, and I hope, by God's blessing, my labours have not been in vain. SPRINGFIELD— REV. A. J. ORESSWELL. Wh m l!l !l I ill! I took charge of this Mission on October 20th, 1886. The- work has been carried on similar lines of that of my worthy* and esteemed predecessor. By some oversight the D. G. ^. subscriptions of 1886 have been uncollected, but this will be- remedied in the future. The services are conducted similarly as heretofore, and the> congregations at the Parish and Saint Simon's and St. Jade's- churches are uniformly good. The congregation at Saint Luke's is small, as only a few Ghurch families live round it. The Lenten and Easter services were well attended. Our three Sunday-schools are all kept up in efficiency, and I am grateful to the devoted efforts of the Superintendents and staff of teachers. The Norton and Greek Sunday-schools were closed during the winter, but the Parish Ghurch school has been maintamed all winter and the attendance has been ex- tremely good. We are anxious to create more singing among the little scholars, and also of starting children's services. Through the kindness of a friend in England, together with the Metropolitan's written approval, I have secured a grant of 120 worth of books suitable for our Sunday-school libraries. We had the privilege of a visit of His Lordship the Metro- politan, who confirmed eighteen candidates on June 19th. The assessment seems to weigh heavily upon us; but it is to- be feared that many expect the ministrations and privileges* of the Ghurch for nothing. However, in the near future I am' hoping our communicants will recognize their " bounden duty and service " in maintaining their church. As a Parish we- are conserving our energies towards procuring a bell for th& Parish Ghurch. I sincerely hope we may be successful. 71 absohitely e D. 0.

CANON Reports contributions from St. Andrews $166, and from Chamcook $81; total for general purposes $247. For Algoma, Domestic and Foreign Missions $39.36. W. & 0. Fund $18. During the past year this parish has met with the loss of two of the most zealous members of the Society and the most generous contributors to its support: — Mrs. Neville Parker and George Skiffinton Grimmer. ST. DAVID— REV. J. W. MILLIDGE Reports contributions as follows: — W. & 0. Fund $1.44, general purposes i^97.39. I am thankful to be able to report considerable activity and progress in the external work of the Church in this lar^e mission. The principal event of the past year was the visit of our much-loved Metropolitan, who confirmed twelve can- didates at St. Thomas' Church. St. James on the 4th August he also baptized Mrs. Caleb Maxwell and her two children, visitors to their native place, from Gorham, New Hampshire. His Lordship, seeing that there was no font, promised to give the Church one, which promise was fulfilled about two mouths afterwards, when a handsome font of black ash and walnut arrived from Fredericton, and was placed near the west door in a space fortunately left when the Church was seated. St. Thomas' Church has just been beautified by two good coats of paint and is now a credit to the Parish. The next day the Metropolitan proceeded to St. Daviil's Church, Oak Bay Road, where a very large congregation whs assembled to witness the consecration. The Revs. H. W. Winkley, Rector of Trinity Church, St. Stephen, and J. F. Pember, Rector of St. Ann's, Calais, were present and assisted. After the ceremony of consecration. His Lordship confirmed i I n :'M 1 Will i:;li ll|'!||!l : I ;'! IMil I i 1 1 nine candidates, and expressed himself as much pleased with the success that crowned the efforts of this small and i)Oor congregation in erecting their church. The sum of $200.00 which I reported last year as being due on this Church, has now, I am ^lad to say, been reduced to $66.00: in addition a stove and eight wall lamps have been purchased. Mr. Arthur Polly presented a handsome hanging lamp for the chancel. The few people on Tower Hill who take an interest in their Church went energetically to work last fall and built the foundation wall. The foundation stone was laid by Mrs. Dowling on the 22nd November, the Rev. T. E. Dowling also being present and making a short address. The proceed- ings were somewhat marred by a driving snow storm which came on, yet the service was a hearty one; the collection was $5.37. During the winter logs were cut and hauled to Doten's mill, where they were sawed this spring, and now the lumber is hauled back to the site of the Church, a distance of four miles. All this has been accomplished without expending any money except for sawing. The builders are now at work and I fully expect to see the Church finished on the outside in a few weeks. Mr. W. Vroom of Vroom Bros., St. Stephen, has kindly furnished the plans, and a handsome donation besides. Mr. C. N. Vroom has given the lime, and many other kind friends in St. Stephen and St. Andrews have subscribed liberally. The amount to the credit of this Church in DoLiinion Savings Bank is now $235.00. In other parts of the Mission also the good work is going on. A few ladies in St. Patrick are raising funds to improve the inside of their Church. At Greenwood Bethel a circle is at work which may perhaps in time bring about the erection of a small church in that locality. Beaconsfield still flourishes, and I have to thank the people there for the first Christmas gift received by me since I entered the ministry. It was a very comfortable Japan wolf sleigh robe, and this spring a parishioner living near there gave me a handsomely embroidered carriage lap robe. Seven of the candidates confirmed at St. Thomas' Church ca.ne from this station, travelling a distance of twelve miles to receive the sacred rite. I should like to give them a Sun- day service once a month, but find it impossible on account of my numerous engagements and the distance from my home. Two of the clergy of the Diocese visited Beaconsfield with me one day in September, one of whom preached and the other said the service. Their visit v as highly appreciated. 73 Onr contributions to general purposes this year are $97. 72, •which is better than a year ago; $1.90 S. P. G. ; W. & 0. *1.48; ;and I would call attention to the fact that Beaconsfield ap- pears this year as a contributor to the general fund; the amount is not large, being only $4.50, but it is willingly .;given. «T. GEORGE AND PENNFIELD— REV. R. E. SMITH. There is nothing new to report from these Parishes. There are large congregations in both churches. That at Christ's •Church, Pennfield, is constantly increasing, so that the church, in the summer months, is well filled, and the number of communicants large. So far this year (1887) 107 different persons in the Mission have communicated, which number, no doubt, will be increased before the end of the year. As a sample of a day's work, on the 27th inst, I married a couple, paid ten visits in the country, held four services with the sick, baptized four children, and travelled some twenty- six miles. With all this good external show, it seems as much as the people can do to raise the assessment on the Parishes, especially in St. George. This I attribute, in some measure, to their education ; like many other Parishes, too long wholly supported by the venerable Society for the Propagation of the Gospel, so that, their ideas about contributing to the sustentation of the church, are in the majority of cases, very limited. I know instances when fifty cents out of some $70.00 per month is considered a sufficient contribution to the Rector's salary, and, I believe, this same course of action is followed in the majority of the Parishes in the Diocese, and that some scheme ought to be devised whereby this should be ■met. People seem to expect the Church's ministration for Tery little cost, and in very many cases for nothing at all, when this sort of thing is never expected from other denomi- nations. It seems a much easier process to open people's ■hearts than to open t\ie\Y purses. It requires the same spirit to do both, and when the latter is not affected, we doubt very much whether the former is. The contributions will, we hope, be equal to those of last year. Of course, it follows, whether right or wrong, that as the assessment of Parishes increases, their contributions to ^he 1). C. S. decrease. ' i'H'ji!! i 'T' ill 74 ST. JAMES (St. John)— REV.

He regrets to say that the sum returned to the Society for 1886 was $25 less than the $500. He however ha» good hopes that the attendants at the Mission Church will rise up to the emergency, raise not less than $500 for 1887 and make up the deficit for 1886. The children's boxes will amount to about $40. The Mission Church has contributed during the past year $114 to the- Medley Scholarship Fund, and $120 to Foreign and Domestic Missions. Total, $774.

The ladies had, during the^ past winter and spring, two Sewing Circles in operation, one* for each Church, by means of which they succeeded in rais- ing handsome sums towards the improyement of their two* Churches. The Sunday-school is in a flourishing condition, though lacking a sufBcient number of teachers. His Lordship the* Bishop Coadjutor, favored the school with a very interest- ing and appropriate address, which both the children an^ their parents appreciated very highly. The attendance at the Churches and stations was quite- satisfactory during the past year, notwithstanding the many- attractions which hare existed without, calculated to draw- some unstable ones aside. Our Lent services were well attended this year. The Most Rev. the Metropolitan, was kind enough to give us the open- ing lecture on Ash Wednesday, and the Right Rev. the Bishop< Coadjutor the closing one on Good Friday. The other clergy of the Deanery assisted at the other services. By the census return there would appear to be 504 Church people in the Parish of St. Mary, a larger number than I have been enabled to discover, notwithstanding I have searched diligently; yet I find some, perhaps there may be many, who- for certain reasons deem it prudent not to be known as Church people, until sickness, or death or poverty overtake them or theirs. For the benefit of such, I have had services in private- houses. This, no doubt, kept up a sort of Church feeling,, yet without any pecuniary benefit to the Church. The Missionary has now a class under preparation for con- firmation, and although, not the usual year for that ordinance,, he hopes to have the usual number of candidates, should Hi» Lordship deem it well to confirm during the coming autumn- in this Parish. We have done but little as yet in collecting for the General! Funds of the Society, but hope to collect the usual amount.. I 70 ST. PAUL (Portland)— REV.

""' My usual practice of sending a report early in June has been broken into this year, because 1 have a statement to make with regard to my Mission and its connection with D. •C. S., which I intended to give the General Committee by word of mouth rather than through pen and paper. Two sudden sick calls prevented my getting to Fredericton earlier than Tuesday evening, so that I must after all put Ihe state- ment on paper, much against my will. It is to the following •effect: that my parishioners consider themselves relieved from assisting the missionary work of the D.C.S., from the fact that •Sussex is a self-sustaining Mission; and they have told me in 77 VEBER . $303 18 . 42 00 . 66 38 . $411 50 [)WLING irger amount )m this town, propriated as sub- .... $179 87 .... 18 46 .... 13 84 .... f 212 17 plain term8 that I have been guilty of a breach of contract [with them in collecting funds for the D.C.S. since the time the Mission assumed that position. I need hardly say to the General Committee that I have acted in ignorance of anv such contract, and that it is a great grief to me *^hat such a feeling should have arisen in the Mission. It is to be hoped the wave of discontent may pass over in a year or so, and that the fair fame of Sussex may be again spread abroad in the mis- sionary work of our beloved Church. All I shall be able to report this year by way of subscriptions will be 120. UPHAM— REV. S. J. HANFORD Has nothing special to report this year. It is not unusual to hear the cry of scarcity of money and perhaps there are now more reasons for the fact than heretofore. The collec- tions when completed will not be much, if any, short of those= of last year. VICTORIA— REV. J. 0. CRISP. No report. tY. J in June has a statement to ction with D. lommittee by paper. Two ericton earlier put the state- the following relieved from n the fact that ave told me in WATERFORD— REV. J. R. DeW. COWIE. There is little that may be termed remarkable to report concerning the work of the Church in these Parishes during the past year. Services have been held in six different places — Waterford, Walker Settlement, Madden Settlement, Sussex Corner, Jeffries, and Markhamville. My Sunday work con- sists of four services and from 20 to 25 miles drive. The j Blessed Sacrament is celebrated every Sunday. Much has been done to beautify the grounds about the church at Waterford, and the inside of the church has been painted. An acre of land has been purchased and there is $100 in hand towards the erection of a Clergy house, which is the one pressing need of the Parish. At Sussex Corner, in the Parish of St, Mark, the work is jelowly but steadily progressing. I cannot say that any of 78 ^hose who abandoned the Church about twelve years a^o to Hoin the Cummins Schism have returned to their Spiritual Mother, but further secession has been prevented, much of the old prejudice has been softened, «na those who profess '-and call themselves members of the Church are such both in 'faith and works. Work has latelv been undertaken in the mining village of "Markhamville, where are a few adherents to the English 'datholic Church. Both Major and Mrs. Markham have shown much interest in the work, and the school-house in which the services are held once a month is always filled to over- •flowing. We shall contribute to the funds of the Society according rto our ability, and earnestly beg the Church's prayers on our •behalf. WELDFORD.— (Vacant). iili ., ■ I WESTFIELD.— REV. W. GREER. I am glad to be able to report that a great deal of practical 'work has been done in this Parish during the past year. The services of the Church have been regularly conducted at each of the three Churches in the Parish, and the attendance has been exceedingly good. During Advent and Lent, special services with an address were held at Saint Peters and Saint •James' 'Churches on the Wednesday and Friday evenings, which were well attended. Regular choir practices are held •each week in connection with these two Churches, which practices I myself conduct, and the singing is now fairly good. iSlvey's Pointing, and Hymns Ancient and Modern being used. A Sunday-school is held at Saint James' Church, and the iRev. Mr. Weeks kindly superintends it for me. I may here i'add that I am deeply indebted to Mr. Weeks for the assistance he gives me at the services at Saint James' Church. The Most Reverend the Metropolitan visited the Parish on •June 22nd, and administered the Apostolic Rite of Confirma- tion to thirteen candidates whom I have been preparing for i;he Sacred Rite for some time past. His words of living (Counsel will long be remembered. 79 Since August last, I have had sixteen baptisms, five marriages, and eleven burials in the Parish. In (July, 1886, the ladies connected with Saint James* •Church held an entertainment, which resulted in a new fence being placed round the grounds, and new steps being built at the Church door, and the grounds cleared up and beautified. Later on in the autumn, we were able to procure a new carpet for the chancel, which was much needed, and also have the 'Church organ repaired. The ladies, also, of Saint Peter's Church procured a carpet and chandelier for the chancel, and had the organ repaired. We have also formed a Church Woman's Aid Society, for the purpose of furthering Church work generally throughout the Parish. I had succeeded in having water brought in pipes into the Rectory, and am indebted to Messrs. Frederick and Henry Wase who kindly gave the pipes, and also to Mr. A. M. Woodman for his help in this matter. The offertories for the S. P. G. amounted to $4.69; and the W. and 0. to $3.21. Contributions to the General Fund of D. C. S. $51.83. WESTMORLAND— REV. D. M.

How much more might be accomplished, by having more laborers fitted for the work, with suflficieni; means for their support! ii!!!: 81 PROCEEDINGS OF THE GENERAL COMMITTEE.

REPORT OF THE SUB-COMMITTEE. The Sub-Committee to whom was referred the consideration ■of the Special Widows and Orphans Fund, and the matters referred to in the letter of Mr. J. F. Robertson relating thereto, >beg leave to submit the following Report: 1. They find that the Fund in question has been raised chiefly, if not altogether, through Mr. Robertson's exertions. 2. That at a meeting of the Executive Committee held on the 3rd March, 1880, (45th Report, page 79), it was resolved that a Committee be appointed to receive subscriptions to be aised in the payment of premiums in connection with the Widows and Orphans Fund, where the same could not be paid in any other way and to report at each meeting of the Executive Committee, and this Fund hsus since that time been, held for that purpose. 3. That such Committee do not appear to have reported, nor can your Committee ascertain that any applications have been made to them for the payment of such premiums. 4. That your Committee are of opinion that there is noth- ing to interfere with the application of tlie Fund in the way Mr. Robertson has now suggested, and they recommend that «uch fund be from henceforth designated as heretofore "The Special Widows and Orphans Fund,^ and he, held by the "Society for the following purposes: (1). The Fund to be kept on deposit at interest in some •chartered bank, or otherwise invested -n securities which maj •easily be realized, and the interest received to be added to it ifrom time to time. m II'! U! 86 (2) Applications for grants from the Fund to be made to the Lord Bishop and the Board of Home Missions, and to be determined upon by them; any grants made to be reported to the General Committee at its next meeting. (3) The application of the Fund not to be limited to the cases of widows or relatives of clerg^ymen serving in the aided Missions, but to extend to all cases throughout the Diocese, occuring after its formation and requiriQg help. (4) Each such grant to be made from the capital of the Fund, until the same shall be exhausted, and not to exceed one hundred dollars in the case of any one clergyman's de- cease. (5) The application of the Fund to be limited to the two cases following: (a) Where the clergyman deceased shall not have been connected with the Widows and Orphans Fund, and satisfac- tory evidence shall be submitted to the Board that the widow, or the orphan children, or other relatives of such clergyman, under the age of eighteen years, dependent upon him at the time of his decease, are not in receipt of an income from all sources exceeding $300 per annum. (b) Where, though the clergyman deceased has been con- nected with the Widows and Orphans Fund, satisfactory evidence shall be submitted to the Board that such widow, or orphan children or dependent relatives under the age of eighteen years, are not in receipt of an income from all sources (except such Fund), exceeding $200 per annum. 6. That it is to be understood in all cases that such grant is not intended for the payment of any debts or liabilities incurred by s'loh c^''"*gyman before his decease, but is to be available to aii exteat not exceeding $100 in any one case to meet the inevitable expen^.: falling immediately upon the widow or helpless relatives of the deceased when they are not provided with private means of their own to defray them.

Rev. James Neales made a statement, alleging the necessity he felt of giving up active work in the Ministry, in which he had been engaged forty-five years.

Mr. Schofield, from the Board of . lu ^i iasions, presente(J* the following report, which he read ; REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HOME MISSIONS. The Board of Home Missions beg to report as follows: 1. Schedule for 1887-88. The Board regrets that, owin^ to- an error in the estimate of available funds for the ensuing- year, which was not discovered until after the report submitted by the late Board was adopted, they are obliged to depart from the recommendation of that report, that no increase- should be made in the assessments. If this recommendation were adhered to, there would be a deficit at the close of the current year of over|3,000, even if none of the seven missions now vacant, should be filled. As this would make it compul- sory to add at least fifteen per cent, next year, the Board are strongly of opinion that it will be better,' at least partly to^ face the difficulty at once. The Board therefore recommend that five per cent, be added to the assessments for the ensuing year, and a like amount be- deducted from the grants, and that the schedule as amended and now submitted, be adopted. A few cases will be found on the schedule in which the Board did not think the rule- could be applied this year. Ji. Gagetown. The Rev. James Neales, having announced his decision to resign his Parish and retire from work, on account of his age and infirmity, provided he could be granted a pension, should he require it, of $400, and there being no- monies unappropriated in the Incapacitated Clergy Fund, the Board recommend that they be authorized to appropriate- from the General Funds of the Society to the Incapacitated Clergy Fund, a sum not exceeding $400 per annum, as a pen- sion to the Rev. James Neales, if required. 3. Travelling outfits. The Board recommend that there be- advanced to the Rev. D. V.

Respectfully submitted, GEO. E. FAIRWEATHER, Treasurer, St. John, N. B., July 5th, 1887. in 127 Meeting of Joint Committees of the Church Society and Synod on Amalgamation, June 29, 1887. (Extract from the Minutes.) Resolved, — That His Lordship the Bishop Coadjutor be requested to submit the report of the Joint Committees, signed by the Chairman and Secretary, to the Diocesan Synod and the General Committee of the Diocesan Church Society, asking the permission of the General Committee to lay such report before them. W. M. JARVIS, Secretary. To the Right Reverend the Lord Bishop of Fredericton and the Executive Committee of the Diocesan Ghurch Society : The Committee appointed to act in conjunction with a Committee of the Synod, to take into consideration the ad- visability and steps necessary for the amalgamation of the Diocesan Church Society and Synod, and to report thereon, beg leave to submit the following report: After consultation with the Committee appointed by the Synod for the same purpose, your Committee appointed a sub-committee to gather information on the subject to be considered. At the request of that sub-committee a circular letter was issued to every Bishop in Canada and the Uaited States asking for information on all the points which would be raised if amalgamation were thought desirable. 2i' !■ 'ilr , ■■'il:, 128 This circular is subjoined (appendix A), and the report of the sub-committee containing a summary of the answers re- ceived is also given (appendix B). To put the matter briefly, it has been found that in no other Diocese in Canada or in the United States are the finances of the Church under the sole control of a voluntary body; the Diocese approaching the nearest to ours is that of Quebec, where a Church Society exists, but there the Synod exercises a joint control with the Church Society over the finances. We therefore stand alone in having the finances of the Diocese administered by a voluntary society, perfectly inde- pendent of the Synod. In every Diocese where there formerly existed a Church Society controlling the finances of the Diocese, that Church Society has been amalgamated with the Synod, and snch amalgamation has proved advantageous in the opinioL of the writers; nor has there been any difficulty found in transfer- ring the trust funds formerly belonging to the Church Society. The Home Mission work in most of the Canadian and American Dioceses is controlled by a Missionary Board, or Board of Home Missions, appointed by the Synod or Conven- tion; and by means of the Rural Deans or Archdeacons a definite knowledge of the wants of the whole of the Diocese, as well as of the status of each separate congregation, is obtained. Stringent provisions are made for the payment of the Clergyman's stipend in several of the Canadian Dioceses. Such is the result of the information obtained. Your Committee, considering the matter of amalgamation to be one not to be undertaken hastily, or without due re- flection, resolved that each member of the two committees should be requested to put his views of the advantages or dis- advantages of the measure in writing. The answers received will be found in appendix C. 129 The advantages enumerated by the writers as thought likely to follow under amalgamation, are as follows: 1. Centralization of power in one body; that body being by general consent the Synod. 2. The increase of dignity and influence to the Synod, by enabling it to control the work of the Diocese. 3. The Testing controlling power in the Synod, which has the right to demand canonical obedience from all churchmen resident in the Diocese, instead of in a voluntary and irre- sponsible society. 4. The simplification of the church machinery, by the abolition of a system requiring two sets of lay deputies or representatives, not possessing the same qualification. 5. The avoidance of confusion at the July meetings, when it is often diflBcult to ascertain which body is in session; and the difference in the rules of order in the Diocesan Synod and the General Committee of the Diocesan Church Society is in danger of being lost sight of. 6. The securing of a representative body, which the Synod by its constitution must be, and the Diocesan Church Society need not be. 7. Homogeneity of jurisdiction, the Synod having, it is claimed, at present jurisdiction only in theory, and none practically, while the Diocesan Church Society has none in theory, but the widest in practice. 8. Full and correct official information, of which, it is alleged, there is at present none in the Diocese. 9. The correction o£ hurtful anomalies, as for example, the " sinews of war " being at the disposal of a sub-committee of the General Committee of the Church Society, while it is asserted that synodical rule is an empty shadow. 10. A ready means whereby the present prejudices against the Church Society, which atfect the revenues of the Church, can be overcome. 11. The avoidance of the possibility of clashing between the voluntary and irresponsible Church Society controlling: 9 4 mf it: i'l Hi- ll 130 the Church funds, and the authoritative and representative body of the Church — the Synod. 12. The substitution of one synodical body for the two bodies which now meet each year in the same week; the nominal Synod, and the General Committee of the Church Society, which is to a great extent the real Synod. And this General Committee, while supposed to be representative, is no longer purely so, since it includes some thirty or forty ex- officio lay members. 13. It is claimed that very much of the present Constitu- tion of the Church Society is practically a dead letter; thai the anniversary meeting of its members has become either a platform meeting or one of mere form; that the local com- mittees have largely fallen into disuse; and that the Consti- tution of the Church Society, if it continues as a separate body, must shortly be revised, and it is thought unnecessary to spend labor in the attempt to infuse fresh life into an in- stitution which may eventually be amalgamated with the Synod, and that it is better at once to throw the whole energy of the Church life into one body. 14. The saving of valuable time at the annual meetings, now taken up by the roll calls and other matters of detail connected with two separate bodies. 15. It is thought that the amalgamation would enable the work of the Diocese, so far as it is promoted by central organ- ization, to be carried on in the most effective manner; that committees or boards formed by the Synod, and meeting at the summons of the Bishop or of appointed chairmen, could transact all the business of the present committees of the Church Society, and take up other work besides; that the Board of Home Missions would work quite as efficiently if formed and acting under the Synod's authority; and that othef committees could as readily report to the Diocesan Synod, if it became the one general representative body of the Church. 131 tative le two k; the Church id this B, is no irty ex- mstitu- ;r; that either a ;al com- Consti- separate lecessary ,0 an in- yith the le energy neetings, of detail -nable the ral orga"- mer; that neeting at (len, could ees of the , that the ficiently if and that Diocesan body of the The disadvantages enumerated by the writers as likely to follow the amalgamation, are as follows: 1. The clauses in the present Constitution of the Synod, limiting the lay representatives to two at most from each Parish, and requiring them to be residents of the Parish they represent, thus shutting out the valuable services of many laymen, at present utilized under the wider Constitution of the Diocesan Church Society. 2. The possible danger of the Church funds being affected by some warm discussion in the Synod. 3. That there are always risks involved in breaking up an old system; and the risk that an amalgamation would not work satisfactorily is an inducement to put up with the pres- ent inconveniences rather than incur the danger of greater difficulties. 4. That the present system may be cumbrous, but it is claimed that in no other is there more economy in working -expenses, or less friction. 5. It is alleged that it has takm fifty years to get the people of the country to understand what the Diocesan Church Society is, and why they should support it, and a change will bring about a great falling off of subscriptions. 6. That since the establishment of the Synod, which is now the natural arena for the discussion of doctrinal and ceremonial questions, party strife has scarcely been known in the Diocesan Church Society, and the advantage of this state of things in a society which contributes so largely to the stipends of the Clergy can hardly be overrated. 7. That the prestige of the Diocesan Church Society (or what perhaps might be called the "good will of its business"), is of some value. People know it wants money, and give it, and remember it in their wills. Inasmuch as so large a portion of the time at the disposal of your Committee has been taken up in gathering information from without, and putting on record the various views of the m !' ^!l t ■'i 133 members of the Committee, there has not remained sufficient opportunity for making a full report. Your Committee- therefore respectfully suggest that the further consideration of the subject be entrusted to a committee to report at the- next meeting of the General Committee. They suggest also that this report, with the appendices, be printed with the Report of the Diocesan Church Society for general information. Your Committee desire also to recommend that the Lord Bishop be requested to convey to the Bishops of the Dioceses in Canada and the United States who have so kindly sent re- plies to the circular issued by your Committee, the ^.hanks of the Executive Committee for the valuable information they have furnished. Your Committee, in concluding their report, desire to re- cord their sense of the valuable services rendered by the Rev- Mr. Lowndes in obtaining the information submitted by them, and to recommend that the expenses of the Committee be borne in equal proportions by the Diocesan Synod and the Diocesan Church Society. All of which is respectfully submitted. W. M. JARVIS, Secretary. June 29th, A. D. 1887. H. TULLY KINGDON, Bishop, Chairman, 133 APPENDIX A. The Rectory, Prince William, York County, New Brunswick, Canada. January, 1887. My Lord Bishop,-— I have been appointed by a joint committee of the Synod and Diocesan Church Society of this Diocese to apply to the Bishops of the Dominion of Canada, and in the United States, for information on several points connected with the proposed amalgamation of these two bodies in this Diocese. In order to give your Lordship as little trouble as possible, I have ventured to draw up a paper of questions, and hope that if your Lordship has not time to do so, that you will Authorize a competent priest or layman to answer them. The committee is exceedingly anxious to obtain full infor- mation before acting in a matter of so grave importance as the reorganization of the Societies at present existing in this Diocese, and I therefore hope that your Lordship will be good enough to help us as fully as convenient. I remain, my Lord Bishop, Yours obediently, ARTHUR LOWNDES. To the Right Reverend The Bishop of M DIOCESE OF FREDERICTON. At a meeting of the sub-committee of the joint committee ■of the Synod of the Diocese of Fredericton, and of the Diocesan Church Society of New Brunswick, for the amalga- mation of these two bodies, it was resolved: " That the Rev. Arthur Lowndes be authorized to correspond iocese is to remit a certain proportion, varying ac- cording to his stipend from one-quarter to one-twentieth of the whole. (2) By an annual collection in every church. (3) By subscriptions. In Niagara — The Bishop writes: "A committee decides how much each congregation should contribute; one or two exceed this amount, many reach it, some fall short. The com- parative statement of receipts exhibits the laggards." 2. Is the finance of the Diocese under the control of the •Synod or of a separate Association 9 2. The finances are, in every Diocese with the exception of Quebec, under the control of the Synod. In Quebec they are under the control both of Synod and Church Society. The Bishop's statement is as follows: f r •; 138 "(a) The grant from the S. P. G., and the assessments^ are distributed by the Diocesan Board, composed of equal members elected by the Synod and the Church Society respectively. *' (h) The invested funds and voluntary contributions are in the hands of the Church Society." 3. Ij it is at present under the control of the Synod, was if always so ? 3. In the Dioceses of Huron, Montreal, Nova Scotia, Toronto, and Newfoundland, there was formerly a Church Society controlling the finances of the Diocese; in the other Dioceses the Synod has always had the control of the finances. 4' If not, has the alteration been on the whole a success? 4. In the Dioceses formerly having a Church Society, its incorporation with the Synod is in every case reported as having been ''thoroughly successful" and "a great ad vantage. '»" 5. If it is under the control of the Synod, are there any officers such as members of Boards, etc., who are not elected members of the Synod i 6. Do such members of Boards become ex-officio members of the Synod by their ajjpointment or election to office ? 7. Have such ex-officio members equal rights with the members elected from the different Parishes ? 8. How does this practice of having ex-officio members work f And 9. Who elects them, or apjwints them ? 5 TO 9. In Dioceses where the Synod has complete con- trol of the finances there are no lay ex-officio members. In Quebec the Treasurer is ex-officio member of the Synod. 10. Have you any means of utilizing the services of valuable laymen, in connection with the Synod or Church Society, who have not been elected thereto ? 10. In no Dioceses are there any means of utilizing the services of laymen in connection with the Synod or Church Society, who have not been elected thereto, though the Bishop of Quebec reports, "Any layman whose services are valuable can be elected a member of the Church Society at the annual general meeting." 11. If the finance is under the control of a separate Society^, does it work well ? 139 12. Would it work better, in your opinion, under the control of the Synod ? 11 AND 13. To the questions whether the finances of the Diocese would work better under a separate Society or the Synod, the Bishop of Quebec reports that the mixed control works well in his Diocese; while the Dioceses of Ontario, Nova Scotia, Toronto, and Newfoundland, all report in favor of control by the Synod. 13. Does your Board of Home Missions, or Standing Commit- tee in connection with rural Parishes, meet always in the same place ? 14' ^rid at fixed dates ? 13 AND 14. The financial Board of the Diocese, or what answers to our Board of Home Missions, meets always in one place, and at fixed dates, in the Dioceses of Huron, Ontario, Montreal, Nova Scotia, Toronto, Ruperts Land, and Qu'Ap- pelle, while in those of Quebec and Niagara it meets always at the same place, but not always at fixed dates. Newfound- land is the only Diocese where the Board meets neither at fixed place nor at fixed dates. 15. How do you avoid favoritism in making grants and such matters ? 16. How do you secure an accurate knowledge of the means and wants of rural Parishes ? 15 AND 16. The avoidance of favoritism and securing an accurate knowledge of the means and wants of rural Parishes seems to be secured in most Dioceses through the action of the rural Deaneries. In Toronto the Rural Dean has to report annually on the condition of Missions, reasons for the formation of new Missions, and for the re-arrangement or re-grouping of exist- ing Missions. It is his duty to visit all vacant Missions in his deanery. No grant is made to any Mission until the Rural Dean has visited each congregation thereof, and is then to- recommend what amount each congregation should contribute to the Clergyman's stipend. If the Board enters into an agreement, it lasts for three years. If a Mission does not pay up, the Archdeacon or Rural Dean is to visit the delinquent, congregation, and make a written report to the Bishop within^ one week, of all the evidence he has taken, who, after append- ing thereto any remarks he may desire, is to communicate- 'V *! r 1 f.l» H I r'B ■^1 ^1 ! deanery in which the Mission i» situated. The Board of Enquiry sends a written report on the case to the Bishop, who, after adding any remarks he de- sires, forwards it to the Diocesan Board. Sections 5 and 6 of Canon 9, page 49, of the Canons of Quebec, provide that: " 5. Whenever the Diocesan Board finds that the fault is- "in the people, it shall be the duty of the Board to insist " upon payment by the people, and in the event of their still " declining, the Board shall remove the Clergyman to another " Mission, or afford him reasonable aid in money, not exceed- ** ing half a year's salary, to enable him to remove to another " Diocese, and in every such case the Board shall not, unless " they see special cause, make any grant to aid the Mission in- " default to obtain another Clergyman, until every Mission^ "■ which is willing to meet the requirements of the Board, has "been supplied with the ministrations of the Church, and ** the money given to the Clergyman to enable him to remove- " has been refunded to the Board by the Mission. " 6. Whenever the Diocesan Board finds that the fault is " in the Clergyman, three months notice shall be given to* " him, and at the expiration of that time, if no field of labor " can be found for him in the Diocese, his connection with " the Board shall cease. In every case, the Board may aid ** in appointing another Clergyman to serve the Mission, At " such time, and upon such terms as they may deem right." 17. How do you obtain an accurate knowledge of the needs of new Missions in newly settled or neglected districts ? ^.?i 142 17. There seems to be no special provision to obtain ac- curate knowledge of the needs of now Missions in newly settled or neglected districts in any of the Dioceses, except those of Toronto and Huron, where a special clause in the Canon in- structs Archdeacons to ascertain where new Missions should be opened. 18. Upon what system are (/rants made to the assisted Parishes or Missions ? 19. Upon the number of communicants, church population, wealth of church 2>opulation or otherwise ? 18 AND 19. There seems to be no system upon which grants are m^de in any of the Dioceses, beyond (as has been seen) obtaining reports from Eural Deans, Rural Deaneries, or Mission Committees. 20. Are all the Clergy ex-officio members of the Board of Home Missions ? 20. Only in the case of Nova Scotia are all the Clergy ex- officio members of the Board of Home Missions. Examining now into the modes in which the Church Societies have been incorporated with the Synod in the various Dioceses in which they formerly existed, I find that in the Diocese of Huron the Church Society was incorporated with the Synod in the year 1874; under it provision was made that so far as the financial affairs of the Synod are concerned, all the life members of the Church Society should be members of the Synod, and all members of the Society who at that date contributed in annual subscriptions the aggregate of §50, pro- vided that all such life and other members of the Church Society shall deposit a certificate with the Secretary of the Synod from, the incumbent of his Parish, that he is eligible to be elected a member of the Synod. In this Diocese lay representatives must be resideuts of the Parish they represent. In" Toronto the Church Society was incorporated with the Synod in 1869. No provision was made for any members of the Society to become members of the Synod. In this Diocese, however, a lay representative need not be a resident of the Mission or Parish he represents. In Newfoundland the Church Society was incorporated with the Synod. As to the particulars of the incorporation I 143 iin ac- settled ose of ion in- should *arishe8 ulation, which IS been ineries, of Home 3rgy ex- Church I various it in the ed with ade that rned, all tnbers of lat date 50, pro- Church T of the eligible ts of the with the mbers of Diocese, it of the jrporated )oration I have written to the la}' Secretary of the Diocese, but have not yet had an answer. In this Diocese the lay representatives need not be members of the Parish they represent. In Nova Scotia the Church Society was incorporated with the Synod in 1876. It was provided by that Act that all the property of that Society should be managed by a Board of Diocesan Missions, to consist of all the Clergy, and twenty laymen, elected by ihe Synod, provision to be made for change from time to time in the lay members. The representatives to the Synod need not be residents of the Parish represented. II. American Dioceses. Coming now to th*^ reports from the American Dioceses, it may be briefly stated i:hat the aim of these Dioceses is to make every Parish and congregation throughout the Diocese contri- bute a fair share to the funds for Diocesan work; and not only are the aided Parishes assessed as in Canada, but in many Dioceses in the States all, rich and poor, are assessed by a committee for that purpose; and at the end of the year a re- port is drawn up showing which Parishes have paid up — most exceed the amounts assessed, some come up to them, a few fall short. In all Dioceses where the endowment is not sufficient to support the Bishop, every Parish is taxed, generally in pro- portion to the Clergyman's salary, and non-payment brings disfranchisement in the Synod. All Convention or Synod expenses are likewise met by a tax on all Parishes in proportion to their wealth. Funds for Mission work are raised as stated above by an assessment on all the Parishes and congregations, as in the Dioceses of Pittsburg, Kentucky, Maryland, Connecticut, Minnesota, and others, or by collections ordered by Canon, quarterly, as ir\ the Dioceses of Missouri, Iowa, Fond du Lac, or twice a year as in Central Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Northern New Jersey. In some by personal pledges and annual collections as in Michigan. 2 AND 3. In every Diocese the finances are under the con- trol of the Synod, either directly or through committees or " ll ;1 i I I! ¥: V !:, li 144 Boards of its own creation. In only two Dioceses, Massachu- setts and Khode Island, has there been in the past a different system. In Massachusetts, Bishop Paddock writes: ** Thirteen years ago he found two voluntary Missionary Societies, both were persuaded to withdraw and one Board took the place. Ever since then the Church conducts the missionary work through its Board, elected by ballot by the Diocesan Convention." In Rhode Island the missionary work of years ago was under charge of a voluntary society, but the Secretary of the Diocese reports that at present it is under the Convention, and that the alteration has undoubtedly been a great success. 5 AND G. In the Diocese of Fond du Lac, Trustees and Committees can be made up of laymen not members of the Synod, or as it is there called the ** Council of the Diocese." In Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New York, North- ern New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Pittsburg, Rhode Island, Ken- tucky, and Louisiana, the Convention may appoint laymen or Boards or committees who are not members of the Convention or Synod, but in no case do such members become ex-officia members of the Synod. 10. In the above Dioceses therefore the services of valuable laymen can be utilized in connection with Boards, Trustee- ships or offices without being elected to the Synod. In Louisiana the Diocesan Treasurer has rarely been a member of the Synod; and in Michigan the five lay members of the committee to manage the funds need not be members of the Synod. 11 AND 12. In answer to the question as to whether it would be better to have the finances controlled by the Synod, the answers received are pretty unaimous on that point. The Bishop of Fond du Lac answers, " without doubt." The Bishop of Massachusetts knows of no other way that the finances could be managed except through some Board created by the Convention. The Bishop of Pennsylvania states that if the control of the finances is under a separate society it does not work well. The Bishop of New York is of opinion that the finances of the Diocese ought to be controlled by separate Boards of Trust elected by the Convention. 13 AND 14. The Board of Home Missions in most Dioceses meets at fixed dates. In Pittsburg, Rhode Island, Kansas, Easton, Minnesota, asachu- ifEerent en years »th were ,. Ever through on." In IS under 5 Diocese and that stees and ers of the )iocese." k, North- lud, Ken- laymen or onvention I ex-officio )f valuable Trustee- ly been a y members members .vhethor it he Synod, 3oint. out doubt. '^ ay that the )ard created states that te society it 8 of opinion ontrolled by on. lost Dioceses Minnesota, 145 Massachusetts, Albany, Florida, Maine, Louisiana, Michigan, the Board need not meet always in the same place; in most of them it meets at different places. In those Dioceses where each Convocation, or as we should call it, each Rural Deanery, controls the missionary work within its own limits, each Deanery is practically a Board of Home Missions. This applies to the Dioceses of Connecticut, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Central Pennsylvania, and others. Kentucky, Missouri, and Colorado are the only three Dio- ceses where the Board has to meet always in one place. 15. As to how to avoid favoritism in the making of grants the Bishops of Missionary Dioceses reply — by the Bishop visiting every Parish or congregation once a year, an l'"- , 164 4°. The total sum estimated bv the Rural Deans would give the total sum required by the Diocese if the whole of the Diocese were worked. 5°. The Synod then to pass a resolution stating what sum ought, in its estimation, to be raised for the following year, and refer the raising of that sum to the Generr^ Diocesan Missionary Board, which Board should consist of Bishops and Rural Deans, ex-officio, together with one or more lay mem- bers elected by each Deanery. 6°. This General Board to apportion to each parish, town, or county, the sum which it was expected to raise towards the missionary purposes of the Diocese. This total sum should then be apportioned by a Board similar to the present Board of Home Missions, upon such information and data as it might require to be furnished to it by each parish desiring aid. 7°. The parochial agreement should be entered into by the aided parish by resolution of vestry with the Rural Dean on behalf of the Missionary Board. Each time the grant is made an examination to be made into the status of the parish by a personal visit, and the grant increased or decreased accordingly. 8°. Parishes not paying their assessments should be dis- franchised and subjected to such Episcopal or Synodical cen- sure as might be deemed fit, and should be put at the bottom of the list of vacant parishes and not supplied with a clergy- man until every other parish that had paid its dues had been supplied, and the rules of the Diocese of Quebec, sections 5 and 6 of Canon IX. (as given in the printed summary pre- sented by the sub-committee) adopted. 9°. If, in addition to this, the July meetings were held in other towns of the Diocese than St. John and Fredericton, and the committees appointed to do work during the year were so constituted that the chairman could convene the meetings at some convenient place other than St. John, Greater and wider interest might be aroused and maintained, ome committees need to be composed of representative men from all over the Diocese, but others can just as well be formed of men near any one of the lesser towns in the province. If % committee, say on " Education," were appointed, such a committee might be composed of men who could all con- veniently meet, say, at Monctou. If another committee were appointed, say on ** Tracts," such members might be drawn from the laymen and clergy in the neighborhood of another 165 held in ricton, he year ne the John, tained. ive men formed nee. If such a all con- tee were )e drawn another town, say St. Stephen or Chatham; whereas, under the present arrangement, a committee may be formed of clergy from Chatham, Andover, St. Andrews, Sussex, St. John and Fred- ericton, with some laymen from Fredericton and St. John, and with what consequence? The meetings are at St. John; clergy of Sussex, St. John and Fredericton may attend; the laymen of Fredericton cannot, owing to their daily duties; and the only persons who are sure to attend are some of the St. John men. The consequence is no work is found for lay- men outside of St. John, while there must be scores of laymen throughout the Diocese ready and capable of work if the work were handy to them. Another of the fruits of amalgamation would be that re- forms could be discussed intelligently, because discussed by a body having the power to carry out its decisions. All reforms are hopeless under the present dual derangement. If reforms are suggested in the Synod, the answer is: ** The Synod can do nothing; it hasn't a cent." If reforms are suggested in the D. C. S., the answer there is: *' We are not the Synod; we have no power." Between the two the Church lies nigh to death, with the Priests on one side and the Levites on the other. Such are a few of the reasons which prompt me to desire amalgamation, that all having unity of aim ma^ have unity of purpose, and having such unity, the Church will then gain Htrength, which alone comes from unity. Letter No. XI. I fear I shall not be able to be with you at the meeting for considering the amalgamation of the Diocesan Church Society with the Diocesan Synod, but in my absence I should be obliged to you to state that I feel more and more opposed to the proposal. I regard our society in the light of the societies in England, which are entirely cf a voluntary character. It has been supported by members of the Church very liberally. In fact, large sums have been given to it to be expended ac- cording to its Constitution, the working of which has been very successful, carrying on all the objects connected with it for which it was formed. It would entirely alter its character were it amalgamated with the Synod, and as a Vice-President >ii 166 and life subscriber, as well as a constant contributor, I must raise my voice against it. The S. P. G. retains its Constitu- tion without being amalgamated with the Convocation; and so I think it would be better for us, as far as the Synod is concerned, to do the same. 1 have other reasons for allowing^ our society, which has done so well, to retain its present position; but I will not enter upon them now further than to- say I believe the Synod has no right to require that the D.C.S. should be amalgamated with it. ADDENDUM. Since the above report was i)resented I have received answers from the Dioceses of Caledonia, Quincy, Washington Terri- tory, and Western Virginia; and the Canons, Constitutions, and Journals of the last Synod or Convention of the Dioceses of Niagara, Missouri, New York, Louisiana, Florida, Michi- gan, and New Hampshire; and a Manual for Church Officers, issued by the Diocese of Michigan. I have also had some correspondence with the Bishop of Niagara, the clerical secretaries of the Dioceses of Ontario, Newfoundland, New York, and others. From all this additional information I find — In not one of this extra list is there a single Diocese where the finances are not under the control of the Synod or Convention. In" New York there was, as recently as 1885, one Mission- ary Society independent of the Convention—" the City Mission Society," but last year they reported to Convention that they felt that a Missionary Society should not be independent of the Church, but that it should " act through the Bishop, be directed by the Church represented in Convention, and be responsible to Convention"; and they further reported that steps were being taken to reorganize the Society accordingly. In Quincy and Western Virginia the members of the Board of Home Missions need not necessarily be members of mvist jtitu- ; ancL lod i» swing resent [lan to- D.C.S. answers n Terri- itutions. Dioceses Michi- Officers, iishop ot Ontario, ot one of ances are Misaion- ty Mission that they )endent of Bishop, he n, and he orted that icordingly- jers of the aembers of 1G7 the Convention, and persons not members of the Convention may be elected to committees or Boards of the Convention. In Caledonia the Clergy are paid by the S. P. G. and C. M. S. In" Niagara the Executive Committee apportions the whole amount needed for Diocesan Missions, Widows and Orphans Fund, and Students Fund, annually, among all citi/ ami coitnty congregations. There is an appeal to both the Com- mittee and the Synod — out of the $8,030 apportioned, §6,741 were paid in last year. In" Newfoundland the old Church Society was merged with the Diocesan Synod in 1874 or 1875. I may also mention that in most Canadian and American Dioceses Women's Auxiliary Societies are in existence, and that not unfrequently their quarterly meetings are held out- side the chief city, or See city, at the time and place of the meeting of Convocacion, or of the Rural Deaneries, and that thus these two agencies are materially helpful and more effi- cient in sustaining the hands of the Bishop and helping on the aggressive work of the Church. A valuable feature of the Journal of the 86th Convention of the Diocese of New Hampshire is a map of the State, show- ing Parishes, Missions, Schools, Orphanages, etc., of the Church in that Diocese.

THE ENVELOPE SYSTEM. As one means of increasing the contributions and lessening the ■difliculties of collection, the Board of Home Missions recommends that Weekly Offerings be substituted for Yearly Subscriptions, wherever practicable. The Weekly OfTeringi? upon the Envelope System have been found to work well in many parts of the Diocese where it has been tried. The first step towards the adoption of this system in a Parish, is to ascertain from all the members of the Congregation what sum they are willing to contribute at the Weekly Oll'ertory; and this being done — 1. Pledges will be received from the Parishioners for a fl.xed weekly sum. from one cent to one dollar and upwards, to be given in an envelope, at the services on each Sunday. 3. A package of envelopes will be given to each contributor, printed with blanks for name and amount of offering. 3. The Treasurer will enter the amount thus received each week, to the credit of each contributor, in a book to be kept exclusively for this purpose. 4. A stated meeting of the Vestry or Parishioners will be held quarterly; at which meeting the Treasurer will report all subscriptions in arrears, and at the close of the Parish year will also present all the last year's accounts of the Parish, which will then be audited and settled. By the above plan the following objects are sought to be accom- plished : 1. That not only heads of families, but all in the Parish, old and young, who have any means and earnings of their own, may contribute according totJieir ability to the support of the Church. 3. That they may, as regularly as possible, at the appointed time, bring their pledged Weekly Offerings to Church, instead of paying them at the call of the collector. [Note. — The principle of the Envelope System is not interfered with when, j»s in exceptional cases, it may be convenient to contribute ONCE A FORr>. itUT, ov at any other stated period within the Quarter.] 3. That the Parish revenue may not fall into arrears and debt be incurred. 4. That the income of the Parish may be materiaUi/ increased, so that mainly from this source, sufficient provision may be made for the support of the Clergyman. All these objects may be easily attained if the Church Wardens be willingly and efficiently sustained in their efforts by those whose repre- sentatives they are. The above plan has been adopted, with some variations, in a num- ber of Parishes in several Dioceses, and has been successful. It is hoped that it may receive serious consideration in every Mission in this Diocese, and that it may be generally adopted. 'i A ■■;■'! iM ' 4'm'm ■ , , ■("■•■■' AMI . .'< 256 FORM OF PLEDGE.
