Churches to the Conference—Year Has Been a Debt Re- ducing One. At the conference of the Methodist churches in Providence on Wednesday, District Superintendent J. H. Newland read his report for the Nerwich district as Tollows: At the close of another Conference | vear this division of the Church Mili- | tant hears the command to halt and ‘,pilvh our tents for a few days in order | that we may review our forces, recount our victories and, if need be, our de- feats, make new plans for the on- ward march and the oncoming battles, Here we alse are to receive from our honored and beloved Commander-in- Chief new orders, wise counsel and fresh inspiration. In submitting the sire first to acknowledge our gratitude to God for the privilege of serving the entire year without interruption from accident or illness, and also to express our appreciation of the loyal support of the preachers on the district. They have done splendid work. ‘They have borne hardships unflinchingly and sorrows without complaint, and have proven themselves the true spiritual sons of the hardy itinerant type of which our Methodism is so justly proud. A One year ago the appointing power sent fifty men to their appointments in this district and each man went to his field without protest. Each one has labored in his field with fidelity and in harmony with his brethren, and net one comes up to be move® because he is dissatisfied with that appointment The changes asked will be for oth reasons, Pastoral Changes During The Year. There were but two changes left un- supplied at the close of conference of 1911, viz.: East Thompson and Col- chester. These were cared for by temporary supplies for some months. accepted service at East Thompson. It is his first attempt to direct the af- fairs of a church but the people are finding him an acceptable leader and preacher, In the fall the church at Colchester suspended its services to unite with the Baptist church in the place, during the illness of the Baptist pastor. The united congregations were largely supplied by Methodist preachers from Wesleyan college. In August the supply at Stafford- ville left that church to take charge of a church within the bounds of the New York East Conference, Rev. W. D. Hamilton has heen secured to supply Staffordville and has begun the work with good prospects. At about the same time W. H. Morrill the pastor at 0Old Mystic was compelled to abandon the work on account of ill health. Since then the church there has been cared for by a student. Deaths. Each year death claims its toll of our Conference. BEach year we miss from our side the form of seme good soldier, the friend of years of comradeship and feel a loss unspeakable because he is not with us. This year we are be- reft in the death of Martin T, Braley. A few years ago he was superannuat- ed at his own request because of ill health. After a long struggle borne with fortitude and filled with hope he died, Sunday, August 20, 1911, at his home in North Grosvernor Dale. In him we have lost a good friend, an earnest and Evangelistic preacher and a loyal brother, His good record of years of successful service is written. His name is on the roll of honor. Two ministers’ widows have, last Conference, passed through the gates of death into life beyond, Mrs. Matilda Brewster, the widow of George W. Brewster, who died in 1891, died in the winter days in her home in Danielson, and Mrs. Thankful Brad- ford, widow of Elisha B. Bradford, died in the home of her daughter in Hyde Park, Mass., in February. Sunday, July the sixteenth of last year death entered the home of the pastor of the Uncasville church and took a beloved son, Otis S. D. Aldrich, a youth just coming into manhood. It was after a lingering illness that this young man who had received a li- cense to preach as a local preacher passed on to serve the great church beyond. September 7, the only son of our brother E. J. Ayres was suddenly called home, He also was a young man of promise, full of hope and as- piration that can only be realized in the fuller life to which he has gone. For the consolation of the friends of these translated ones there remains the joy of a memory of their splendid characters, the daily support of the strength their lives have imparted to us and the hope of a happy reunion. They being of the company who have given through their lives their sym- pathy to the sorrowing, their sub- stance to the poor, their strength to the weak and their hearts to God, have in the world to come life everlasting, Membership and Spiritual Work, Above all the losses by death, ich reports show there have been 95, and removals, a gain of 100 full members is indicated. Three hundred and eighty-five probationers will be reported, and one hundred and nine- ty-six received by certificate. We can n boast of this as a year of largest gains nor of special revival interest, nevertheless there is a reasonable gain and some revival spirit. This has been most manifestly seen at South Man- chester where g revival of some weeks duration, under the wise direction of the pastor, Rev. 8. 2. Bllis, resulted in one hundred and twenty-five conver- sions and a list of eighty-three pro- bationers. Churches receiving tae largest number of prebationers are as follows: Westerly, 7; Willimantic, 21; Warehouse Point, 7; Bast Hartford, 7; Rockville, 13; New Leondon, 18; East Glastonbury, 13; North Gros- venor Dale, 13; Moosup, 15; chester, 8; ° Burnside, 16; Stafford Springs, 17. These mark the places where the greatest revival interest has been seen. since of employed on the district this year. | Sunday Schools Other Church So- cieties, The Sunday school is one vital point in the growth and success of any church. In some of the churches of the distriet it is with difficaity that this branch of the churcy wurk is maintained on account of the svattered population, and from the fact that so many foreign famiiies of other lan- guages and religious beliefs have re- | placed the families who used to oc- {cupy the farm homes all about the churches. Nevertheless -he ii1crest in this work is good and progrees is reported in many parts of the district. Twenty-four pastors report an Increase in the enrellment this year and several report that the increase is very mark- ed. The largest school on ths district is at New London. ''ne memberskip there is 550, with a crad:e roll of 13, and a Heme department of 210. The average attendance is 45). This great advance is partly brought about by the efforts of a special worker, who, in addition to the regular English speak- ing school, this Sunday schoul main- tains a school for the itaiiins that numbers abeout thirty scholars. This is not counted in the above repert of the enrollment of the New London school. Let us hope it will eventuate in an established work of large use- ‘tulness to these new comers to our land. The second largest Sunday school is at South Manchester, 'This, too, has shown large growth. An in- creased number of the schools have adopted the graded lesson series with safisfaction, An inquiry semt out te all the pase report of the Norwich district we de- | In February, Rev. David H. Talmage Man- | With the exception of one | church there has been no evangelist | tors as to which of the secieties is the most helpful in the work of the { church, brought answers indicating that the Ladies’ Aid is so regarded in the work of the church because of the finanecial and soeial strength they bring Ito the church. Indeed in many places i the church would have long since | closed its doors but for the noble band of women who have organized them- | selves into an auxiliary of the church. The Epworth league still maintains its place as a spiritual and secial force in this district . This fact is due large- Iy to the activities and careful plan- |ning of the District Cabinet who have | maintained the institute at Williman- tic and a series of Sub-district con- | ventions througheut the district. To one who is in a position to be- icome acquainted intimately with the iwm‘king of a large number of church- ies it becomes a matter of intense in- | terest to note changes in emphasis on !certain phases of church activity., It E is not necessarily a sign of decline that some things Janguish that once fiour- {ished if the life of th¢ church be !flowing in new channels with un- abated vitality. During the past year there has been a growing interest, in the Norwich District, in work for and by the men and boys. This takes dif- ferent forms but the object is the same and there is no more hopeful sign, no more encouraging feature of our work than this. The men's clubs, men’s | classes, brotherhoods, as well as the | boys’ movements have been greatly stimulated by the Men and Religion movement which our district center- ed in Hartford. Special Anniversaries and Annual Gatherings. The one hundredth anniversary of the church at Ea Glastonbury was celebrated this year in October. A week of programme brought together many of the former pastors and friends of this church. Bishop Wilson S, Lewis of Foochow, China, was the central figure among the speakers of the occa- slon. Part of the services were held on Asbury rock where one hundred vears before Bishop Asbury had stood to preach to the people gathered from all the country round. The services, however, were for the most part held in the newly renovated and redecorated church which had been especially re- paired for this event. The pastor, Rev. Otis H. Green, deserves great credit for the manner in which the programme was planned and caried out. The Epworth league institute this year had the most successful session of its three years’ history. The enroll- ’mem was the largest and the teaching {and enthusiasm the best yet secured. This institute is worth while. The | young people who spend a week of their vacation there are pretty sure to Imulntain a keen interest in the young people’s work throughout the whole | year. | The Willimantic Camp Meeting which followed the institute was also one of the best in the history of that historic camp ground. Rev. Harry Taylor again served as evangelist and seemed to everybody attending to out- {do all previous years of his service | there in the qual of his messages. | His earnest and eloquent sermons were | delivered with rare skill. They were tender as the love that prompted them, but strong and manly, a lesson | to every young minister in the art of preaching to win souls. All the ser- vices were pronounced more than sat- isfactory and the congratulations of the entire board of directors were ex pressed at the clo of the meeting. The closing Sunday rening witnessed the altars filled w As formerly the financ clation received the care and attention of the meeting. During the year we had installed a complete outfit of elec- tric lights for the whole ground at a cost of $900 1d digged and equipped two new wells at a cost of $400. This | with the regular expe of running |the meeting made a large amount of money necessary Notwithstanding {that rain fell all day on the last day | of the meeting, keeping away three or {four thousand of those who usually (come on that day, we raised $1200 to | cover our expenses. It was a new { manifestation of the devotion of our | district to that meeting and their de- | termination to keep it alive and work- }ing. The ladies of the auxiliary were {as usual greatly helpful in making pos- i sible the new improvements. In addi- | tion to helping in the before mentioned improvements, they have this year | bought the cottage that stood too near | that provided for the district superin- {tendent. It is to be removed that the |camp ground parsonage may be bea |tified. The cost of thie cottage was $250. Church Repairs and Church Debts. There 4re but eleven of the sixty seven churches on this district that r ported a debt on their church proper |last year. This is a splendid showing, ybut it is still far reduced this ar. The church at Willimantic has paid $670 on its debt, Moosup $925 on its debt and Eastford extinguished the debt on its new parsonage by the pay- ment of §300. Mapleville, R. L “paid $105 debt and $80 repairs, Jewett | City paid $200 toward its small debt. Various churches have improved the church parsonage buildings in various ways and in sums as follows: West Thompson, repairs to parsenage and isheds, $200; Bridgeton, repairs to | church building, $800; Burnside church \and parsonage, $400; South Coventry, | eleetric lights, $825; Manchester, re- | pairs in auditerium, $1200; repair of (chureh in East Glastonbury in prep- |aration for ene hundredth anniversary, | cost §700; imprevements at New Lon- |don and at Danieson cost 3400, each; ta new room for the use of the Ladies’ society at Hockanum cost $306; a new well and repairs at Wapping cest §$315, To beautify the parsonage at Stafford | Springs ceost $150, and twelve other churches spent in repairs sums ag- greégating $975. No new debts have | been contracted which is a matter of igreat satisfoction. Gifts and Bequests. The loyalty of many of the fathers of the churches on this district in the yvears that are gone, is still keeping some of the churches alive. They served well when alive and dying they made provisions by will so that the result of their work is preserved. This worthy custom still continues and this year the church received as fol- lows: Windsorville, from the Penfield estate, §100; by will of Mrs. Lester G. Bancroft, the church at Warehouse Point receives $200 in money and half of a dwelling house and lot of land worth $32,500. By the same will the Thompsonville church receives a sim- iflar amount of money and the other half of the said house and lot. The will of Charles Neff, gives $1,000 to the chureh at Portland, the income only to be used for church expense, The will of Mary A. Williams gives $1,000 to the church at Mystie, income only to be used and the fund to be known as the Mary A, Williams’ fund. By the gemeresity of B, ¥Frank Bteele and Alexander Swift the Sunday scheol at Quarryville has received a new li- brary of 2388 beoks, This is a great beon for that iselated community. Stafferd Springs Sunday scheol is the recipient of a splendid stereapticon and reflectoscope the gift of Hen. F, F, Patten, superintendent of the scheol, The will of Jane T. Buxten gives to the church at Bridgeton, ths sum of $500. The lot of land owned by the church and which was the site of a _church building fermerly situated in Camterbury, Cenn, has been sold Sl s b according to the plan presented te the plan presented to the last conference and the money turned ove- to the Con- ference trustees. The will of Sarah B. Colver zives to the trustees of the New Mngland Southern Conference a iz topement dwelling house on (Capitol avenue, Hartford, in trust, the income of the same ‘after payment of all taxes, re- pairs and insurance, and other ex- renses for the care of the same to be appropriated as follows: $26 per month to Mary E. Martin of Westerly, during her life time, the residue after her death to be paid to the Woman's Foreign Missionary society of the Methedist Episcopal church. This property may be sold if it becomes ad- visable to ¢o so. The same will of Sarah B. Colver gives to the trustees of the New Eng- land Southern Conference a six ten- ement house on Putnam street in Hartford, in trust, the income of same after the payment of the taxes, re- pairs, msurance and other expenses, to be paid to the conference claimants annually. In case it becomes advisa- ble to do so the trustees may sell the said property at a time when it can be done advantageously, and the income from its reinvestment paid to the con- ference clalmants. This fund shall be called the Nathan Colver fund in mem- ory of the father and brother of the testatrix. This property ylelds a net income of six per cent. on $10,600. The other day I came into possession of an Interesting old book. It was the first book of records of the Board of Con- ference Claimants, and set forth the beginnings of that work in 1848, That was sixty-two years ago. At that time there were no moneys available for the veteran preachers save as they were given or gathered by the preach- ers having the effective relation. What a change has come! We now have $78,000. the income of which annually aids us in caring for the veterans, but this is the striking part—that over thirty thousand dollars of that money has been given and raised in the last four years. This gift of the Nathan Colver fund for the conference claim- ants is another encouragement making us more certain that, with our new Agent of the Board of Conference Claimants in the fleld and with the new standards of duty before our face, we will soon be well on the way to- ward the $250,000 we need for this worthy cause. Norwich district will welcome the new Agent, Dr. E. C. Bass, and will do its part toward giving and bequeathing a larger fund. Benevolent Collections. Every year for five years this dis- trict has advanced the total of its ben- evolent gifts. It is impossible to fore- cast the results of this year's col- lections, though tentative reports of the pastors do not indicate any fallirg off in the collections. The times have not been bright for the Connecticut villages where the people depend so largely for their support on the opportunities of- fered in the factories and mills. We expect to do as well as last year and that will be well enough. Salaries. In some of the churches the salaries of pastors have been increased again this year. It is our purpose as long as opportunity is given to urge the churches to take better care of the pastors, There are no better, more comfortable or more commodious homes provided for the pastors of any similar district in New England, if in- deed, there is any where else, than are provided on this district. We long for the day when no pastor shall have to serve the church for a less wage than that given to the skilled workmen who live around him. If our Home Missionary society that has been for S0 many years the recipient of the beneficence of the churches on Nor- wich district would help us in propor- tion as we have given to them it would be an act of justice hitherto denied us, and would swell the paltry charity of their $100 previously doled out to us to a sum that would help our heroic men. Thank God for men who serve without regard to stipend, and who through humiliaion and suffering will net abandon the field our fathers won to God and Methodism. The year’'s harvest is gathered, its opportunities are gone. In a few days we will be ordered forth and given a new opportunity, With God’s help let us gather a greater harvest the re- sult of our increased gratitude and ex- perience, BORN.
