At the half-yearly meeting, duly announced to be held on the 8th November last, the following? members of the Board were present : — Mr. A. Macpherson, chairman ; Rev. Dr. Campbell, Rev. Dr. J. B. Muir, Messrs. James Tasker and William Darling. There not being a legal quorum in attendance, it was agreed to adjourn without transacting any business. Since the last annual meeting of the Board, the names of four ministers have been removal' from the roll of bene- ficiaries by death ; — namely. Rev. James Cleland of Port Hope, Ont., who died on the 4th of July, 1898, aged 77 ; Rev. James C. Smith, r)f Guelph, Ont, who died on July 25th, 1898, in his 63rd year ; the Rev. Frederick Home, who died at Carnoustie, Forfarshire, Scotland, October 17th, 1898, aged 74 years ; and the Rev. James B. Muir, D.D., of Huntingdon, Que., who departed this life on the 10th of March, 1899, in the Goth year of his age. With the exception of Rev. J. C. Smith, the above named were all on the list of ministers retired from active service in the Church. Dr. Muir had been a much respected and useful member of the Temporalities' Board since November, 1892. The usual payments were made to the ministers in June and December, 1898, which necessitated a draft on capital of $13,530. The investments of the Board, as shewn in Schedule A, are now reduced to $28,616.74. The number of Beneficiaries on tlie roll at this date being fifty-eight, it follows of necessity that it will be impossible to continue the payments beyond the time mentioned in last year's report, namely, until and including the pay- ments to fall due in December, 1900. The names of the members of the Board are as follows : — Mr. Albxandrr Macphbrsom, Chairman. Bbv. Robt. Cahpbkll, D.D. Mr. John L. Morris, Q.C. Rev. Jahks Patterson, Mr. Andrew Allan, Rev. Donald Ross, D.D. Mr. D. B. Maclennan, Q.C. Rev. John 8. Bdrnet, Mr. Geo. M. Macdonnell, Q.C- Mr. William Darlino. Mr. James Tasker. The thanks of the Board are due to Mr. P. S. Ross, chartered accountant, and Mr. Alexander Mitchell, for their gratuitous services in auditing the books and accounts with the financial statements herewith submitted, and which they have duly certified.
