West Virginia Conference Proceedings.

By S. M. Cobb; W. A. Westworth

The thirteenth annual session of the West Virginia Conference was held September 13–23, at Fairmont, in connection with the camp-meeting.

Resolutions were adopted which touched on the Religious Liberty work, the foreign work, the Missionary Magazine, church schools, and the union of the tract society with the Conference.

The work has advanced during the last year, as evidenced by the fact that our Conference debt has been reduced over two thirds of the entire amount, which was about three thousand dollars. The spiritual interests show marked improvement; and courage and advancement is the keynote.

Credentials were granted to S. M. Cobb and W. A. Westworth; ministerial licenses to P. W. Province, C. B. Rule, W. R. Foggin, J. A. Traugh, and J. W. Lair; missionary licenses to F. M. Gardner, Marie E. Sohner, Mrs. W. A. Westworth, Mrs. J. W. Lair, Mrs. J. A. Traugh, and Mrs. C. B. Rule. The following officers were elected: President, S. M. Cobb; Conference Secretary, W. A. Westworth; Tract Society Secretary, C. E. White; Treasurer, C. E. White. Executive Committee: S. M. Cobb, W. A. Westworth, C. B. Rule, W. H. Snider, Henry Neptune. Harmony prevailed in all our work, and we enter the ensuing year with bright hopes and confidence in the leading and power of God.

S. M. COBB, Pres. W. A. WESTWORTH, Sec.
