Omission Regarding the Seventh-day Baptist Memorial Fund

By John Nevins Andrews

Omission.

In making a brief report of the seventh-day Baptist anniversaries, I inadvertently omitted to speak of the Memorial Fund. Last year being the two hundredth anniversary of the existence of the denomination in this country it was then determined to raise a memorial fund of $100,000. Those who contributed to this fund were to be permitted to state the object to which their individual donations should be applied. About one-half of this sum has been raised during the year just closed. I regret the omission in my report. J. N. Andrews.
