JOriLVAL OF PROCEEDIXGS.

your heads, O ye gates ; and be ye lift up ye everlasting doors ;
and the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of
glorv \ It is the Lord strong and mighty, even the Lord
mighty in battle." Psalm xxiv, 7, 8.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE DIOCESE.

The Trustees to hold property for the Diocese of North Carolina re-
spectfully report, that, since the last Convention, they have received
and filed the following deeds for real property, all executed to the Trus-
tees of the Diocese:

20 JOUEXAL OF PeOCEEDIXGS.

1. A deed from A. M. Foster and wife for a lot in Davie County on
the road running from Fork Church to Bixby, adjoining J. R. Williams'
factory — consideration expressed $50 — dated June 15th, 1906, and regis-
tered in Book 19, page 561, office of Register of Deeds. We are informed
that on this lot a chapel has recently been built.

2. A deed from Charlotte Consolidated Construction Company for part
of Lot No. 4 in Square Xo. 6 in Dilworth, near Charlotte, fronting on
South Boulevard, a strip two and one-half feet wide — dated September
9th, 1909, and registered in Book 254, page 173, in the office of the
Register of Deeds of Mecklenburg County.

3. A deed from R. L. Murphy and wife for a lot, 80 feet by 100 feet,
on Summit Avenue in Walnut Cove, being part of Lot 145 in the plan
of the town — dated November 8th, 1909, and registered in the office
of the Register of Deeds of Stokes County in Book 53, page 373. This
lot was conveyed in exchange for a lot not so eligibly situated, which
was conveyed to the Trustees, and which they conveyed by request to
J. B. Woodruff.

4. A deed from J. C. Buxton, Trustee, for the Church Lot in Winston
on Church and Fourth streets, 62 feet by 103 feet — dated April 0th,
1910, and registered in the office of the Register of Deeds for Forsyth
Count}^ in Book 100, page 132.

The Trustees further report, that at the recent' term of the Superior
Court of Edgecombe County they assented to a judgment whereby the
old Rectory lot was to be sold, and a lot much more eligibly situated was
to be purchased by the Trustees and Vestry of Calvary Church at Tar-
boro. This lot being for the benefit of the Rector of the Parish, and it
being probable that an incumbrance would have to be placed upon it for
the erection and furnishing of the Rectory, the Trustees, at the instance
of the said Vestry, agreed that the title should be vested in them, the
said Vestr}', for the benefit of the Rector of the Parish.
Respectfully reported,

Jos. Blouxt Cheshire.
Chas. E. Johnson.
R. H. Battle,

Trustees.

On motion of the Rev. A. B. Hunter, the report was re-
ferred to a Special Committee which the Bishop apj)ointed,
as follows: The Rev. Edward L. Ogilby, :\lr. Wm. A.
Smith and Mr. Wm. Rice.

The Secretary announced the appointment of Mr. Frank T.
AVard as Assistant Secretarv.

Diocese of Xorth Carolixa, 1910. 21

Mr. Will. A. Sniitli presented the following

EEPORT of the BOARD OF MANAGERS OF THE THOMPSOX
ORPHANAGE AXD TRAINING INSTITUTION.

The Board of Managers of the Thompson Orphanage and Training
Institution pray your attention to this their twenty-fourth annual re-
port :

The good people have generously sustained this Institution of the
Church, aided by the railroads, the express company and the Standard lee
and Fuel Co.: and the liealth of the children has been preserved and
protected by Dr. Myers Hunter and other eminent physicians and dentists
of Charlotte, as will appear by referring to the statement of the super-
intendent, which is appended to this paper; showing also total receipts
$11,521.00 and disbursements $10,082.97, leaving a balance in hand of
$1,438.09. The present number of children is 05. Of these 37 are from
the Diocese of North Carolina, 10 from East Carolina, and 12 from
the District of Aslievillo.

The endowment fund, $11,418.47, we regret to say, has increased only
$100 dollars in two years. It affords us pleasure to note the cautious
and careful handling thereof by our Trustee, Mr. J, G. Shannonhouse,
evidenced b}' his report appended hereto.

The great crying need of the Orphanage is suitable sanitary buildings.
For all the past years your Board of Managers has endeavored to make
the old buildings serviceable by changes and additions from time to time,
but they are not adapted to the work, are unsanitary, and should be re-
moved and replaced.

It is natural and right to give these orphans, who are peculiarly
God's children, a better chance in life, by training them to climb Jack's
bean stalk — sometimes the foot slips, sometimes the hand fails to grasp,
again the head grows dizzy; all going to show the necessity of training
properly these children, to enable them (according to the German
legend) to utilize the three treasures of the All-Father, the wind, the
rain and the genial sun, represented by the harp, bags full of treasure
and the red hen which laid golden eggs.

To do this first and foremost is the protection of their health in order
to have what Juvenal considered the best gift of the gods, "mens sana
in corpore sano" — a sound mind in a healthy body. Very much to be
desired are sanitary buildings constructed of the pure elements, brick
and cement, according to designs well thought out and specially drawn
by a capable architect upon hygienic principles with proper ventilation
and conveniences.

Your Board considers the cottage system the better, which has one
large central building for assembling schools, etc., and cottages con-
veniently located for homes and dormitories. This plan secures the
family idea considered so essential, in all its possible details.

22 JouRXAL OF Proceedixgs.

Just imagine, if you please, a large horseshoe as the design, with
the assembly building at the toe of the shoe and cottages on the sides
and heels. The present site is especially adapted to this plan as not
one tree of importance need be sacrificed.

Do we hear you say, '"The site is all right, the cottage system is all
right, but where is the money?'* The ladies, God bless them, have
their hearts in this work and their souls attuned to its attainment.
With enthusiasm and devotion to this movement they have already
organized a "Federation of Thompson Orphanage Guilds," in number
about fifteen, and they purpose covering the State "with them.

Through these Guilds they have harvested in round figures $1,500,
the first fruits toward the building fund — the herald and harbinger of
the "oncoming avalanche of glittering gold to be laid at their feet,
which will enable them to rear beautiful, sightly structures on soil hal-
lowed by the memories of the Thompsons whose gift made this Institu-
tion possible and for whom it was named, the pioneer of church or-
phanages in the State, hallowed by the memories of the great-hearted
Bronson, who preserved this property to the Church, hallowed by the
labors of the grand, zealous and consecrated Osborne and our present
efficient Superintendent.

God bless the officers and every individual member of the Federation
of Thompson Orphanage Guilds. Their noble example of generosity
should be equalled by the laymen of the Diocese of Xorth Carolina, East
Carolina and the District of Asheville. The ladies have sounded the
drum beat and bugle call that will echo "from the river to the ends
of the earth."

With all our hearts we must serve the Orphanage — give it our facul-
ties, our gold, our life : not only give, but give gladly, give with both
hands. The good women have set a shining precedent to the laymen in
zeal and organization. Remember to you much has been given and from
you much and more is expected.

"Wherefore criest thou unto me, speak unto the children of Israel
that they go forward."' Don't simply mark time, you laymen, but
march, and if need be at a double-quick. Do your full duty. This gene-
ration shall not pass away before we shall see the slate roof on the
stately central building flanked on either side by beautiful, homelike
cottages glistening in the noonday sun — inspiring your Superintendent
and teachers, giving the uplift to the children of the Orphanage that
comes from devotion to lofty ideals — all to the glory of Christ and His
Cluiroh. Respectfully submitted,

W. A. Smith,
For the Board of Managers.

KEPOKT OF THE KKV. \V. .1. SMITII. Sli'KHI.XTENDE.NT OE THE THOMPSON
OiaMIANA(;E AM) THAIMNC I N STITITION.

To the Board of MaiKujeis — (1 recti mi :

In piesentino- my annual report 1 am "lad t!» say that we have had
on the whole a prosperous year, marked by no epidemic, serious
sickness or accident, and that while our expenses have been greater
than usual, yet we have closed the year with a credit balance of
.$1,4;JS.()9, showing that our people have respontled very liberally to our
wants. Perhaps it should be stated that since the close of the Orphan-
age year two cases of measles have developed in Bronson Hall, the sec-
ond we have had in the Institution since I took charge of the work,
twelve years ago. These cases have been quarantined as well as possi-
ble, and we hope that the contagion will not spread to any great ex-
tent. Our farming expenses seem to be excessive, but this is due to the
fact that we have had to purchase a mule and a horse, a few expensive
but necessary implements, a large quantity of seed for our more ex-
tensive crop, besides paying a little more for our hired help, amounting
in all to something over four hundred dollars. The Messenger of Hope
suspended publication with the September number, and was merired
along with the Mission Herald into an inter-diocesan paper, the Carolina
Churchman, published at Wilmington. It is a well-printed paper, ably
edited, and will doubtless do a good work for the Church in our beloved
State. While it devotes a portion of its space to the Ori)hanage, thus
giving the Superintendent more time for his other work, yet it is a ques-
tion whether it will mean just the same to our work as our own paper
did. Miss Baker, our efficient housekeeper, was married in November, and
was succeeded in December by Mrs. Xannie A. Campbell, who has taken
hold of her duties with much zeal and proficiency. After twenty years
of faithful service, Mr. Jamison gave up his position as farmer at tlie
end of the year, and moved with his family a few miles into the coun-
try. His son, Ernest; wlio has had two years' experience in the truck-
ing business, took his place as soon as he left, and has shown himself
well qualified for the work. During the year we have received twenty-
four children into the Orphanage, eighteen from the Diocese of North
Carolina, four from the Diocese of East Carolina, and two from tlie
District of Asheville. Nineteen have been returned to their fricntls,
and one has been placed in a good home. The present number is sixty-
five, thirty-seven being from the Diocese of North Carolina, sixteen
from the Diocese of East Carolina, and twelve from the District of
Aslieville. Five have left since the close of the Orphanage year, and
one has come in, making sixty-one in actual residence at this writing.
We hope our friends will send us an extra contribution when the dull
summer months come on. One Parish has promised to do so, and an-
other, Calvary Parish, Tarboro, has just sent us a clicck for tifty dol-
lai-. We luivc received a hundred dollars fiom tlie estate of Mi-s

24 Journal of Pkoceedtxgs.

Eowena Micks, Clinton, and a hundred dollars from ^Ir. W. L. London,
of Pittsboro, the latter being for the building fund. The late Hon. W.
P. Bynum, a good friend of the Orphanage, bequeathed one thousand
dollars to the Institution, which has not vet been paid. The ladies of
the Church of the Holy Comforter, Dihvorth, have been instrumental in
placing three stationary wash tubs in the laundry at Thompson Hall
with heater for supplying hot water. Connection has been made from
this heater to the kitchen boiler, thus supplying all the hot water
needed in the bath rooms. If the Orphanage is to remain where it is,
I would suggest that at least a thousand dollars be invested in tene-
ment houses, and that a thorough system of drainage be applied to the
creek bottoms.

In closing my report I wish to thank specially our own physician,
Dr. ]\Iyers Hunter, and also the other physicians and dentists of Char-
lotte, as w^ell as the Standard Ice and Fuel Company, and the railroad
and express companies for their continued favors.

Hereto I append my statement as Treasurer for the past year.

day pupils, 87 ; a total of 237, an increase of 20 per cent over last year.
Of the boarders, 62 were from the Diocese of North Carolina; 28 from
East Carolina; 14 from South Carolina; 11 from Asheville, and 9 from
Georgia. The total enrollment represents eighteen Dioceses, eleven
States, and tw^o foreign countries. Of the boarders, 25 per cent and of
the day pupils 40 per cent were not of our communion.

It is Avith much satisfaction that the Trustees call attention to the
improvements not only in buildings and equipment, but in the general
administration of the internal affairs of the School thus made possible.
As St. Marj^'s is now prepared to receive a larger number of pupils
than ever before, to give them better and more comfortable lodging and
a table better furnished and served than was possible in the past, so
she is prepared to show a corresponding improvement in the higher
interests and in the opportunities afforded for scholastic attainments.
A large and highly accomplished faculty offers every advantage in the
academic departments as well as in the more ornamental branches of
music and art; and a marked rise in the general spirit and purpose of
the student body is a gratifying element in what we believe to be the
present hopeful condition of the whole institution.

The policy adopted by the Board of Trustees, not only in accordance
with what they believed to be the demands of the situation and the
necessities of the times, but also upon the influence of the friends and
patrons of the School in all parts of the State, has involved the corpora-
tion in an indebtedness of forty thousand dollars. But it has put the
School in a position where it can make good its offer of giving a full
and generous return for what its pupils pay, and where it can command

the respect and success which before it solicited. And this amount of
indebtedness should be only a temporary encumbrance to an institution
which has such a constituency of friends and supporters, and such a
place in the hearts of the people of two States.

We confidently appeal to our Church people of the Carolinas and of
the country generally for their liberal sympathy and support in our
great work, and we believe that the noble history of the past is only
the promise of greater achievement in the future.

The report was adopted and the Delegates named appeared
and took their seats.

The hour of noon having arrived, the Bishop offered pray-
ers for Missions.

Mr. Thomas H. Battle presented the following report^
which was adopted :

The Committee to whom the Thompson Orphanage report was referred
make the following report:

We have examined all the papers referred to us, the reports of the
Treasurer, the Superintendent, and the Board of Managers, and are
much impressed with the zeal and efficiency shown therein, and recom-
mend their approval by the Convention. We urge that the heartiest
possible support be given to the attempt to secure the much-needed new^
buildings begun by the ladies and endorsed by the Board of Managers.
We specially suggest that the Convention take steps to interest the Sun-
day Schools, each one in the Diocese, in the systematic support of the
Orphanage, both as a matter of education and of revenue. This might
serve to counteract the loss of interest which may result from the dis-
continuance of The Messenger of Hope.

We would call attention with special approval to the carefulness
shown by Treasurer Shannonhouse in the disposition of the Permanent
Fund.

We recommend the passage of the following resolution in regard to
the above suggestion:

Resolved, That the Bishop, the Clergy, and the Sunday School superin-
tendents be hereby requested to make every effort to interest the Sunday
Schools in the active and systematic support of the Orphanage, and
that each Sunday School be asked to take up one collection in each month
for the support of the Orphanage, and as many other times as local
conditions may permit.

Respectfully submitted, A. B. Hunter.

The Convention reassembled and was called to order by the
Bishop.

The S})eeial Order being the Report of the Trustees of St.

^larv's School, it was postponed, on motion of the Rev. A. B.

Hunter, in order to consider a resolution in regard to the

Thompson Orphanage; whereupon Mr. Wm. A. Smith offered

the resolution as follows:

Resolved, That a Committee of five be appointed by the Bishop to
evolve some system or method of organizing a Layman's Auxiliary in
aid of the construction of new buildings for the Orphanage, to co-operate
with the Federation of Thompson Orphanage Guilds.

The resolution was adopted, and the Bishop made the fol-
lowing appointments : The Rev. H. Mallinekrodt, ]\Ir. D. Y.
Cooper, Mr. Chas. E. Johnson, Mr. L. S. Holt, Jr., and ^h\
James Ker, Jr.

Bishop Rondthaler, of the Moravian Church, was presented
to the Convention by the Bishop of the Diocese, and made a
brief address.

The Rev. Bertram E. Brown, from the Special Committee
on the Report of the Trustees of St. Mary's School, presented
the following report :

The Special Committee appointed to consider the Report of the
Trustees of St. Mary's School, beg leave to report that they approve
the said Report in every particular.

We call especial attention to the item noting an increase of twenty
per cent over last year in enrollment of pupils, and to the gratifying
fact that such improvement has been effected in the capacity of the
School by erection of new buildings and acquisition of new equipment,
that the management is able to promise an ever-growing usefulness and
success for the School in the future.

Xew buildings, with incidental improvements, having been added at
t!ie cost of seventy thousand dollars, we have every reason to hope for a
I)ii]liant lealization of this ])romise under the present able and efficient
management.

The Committee also call attention to the fact that a bonded indebted-
ness of forty thousand dollars has been incurred by the School in mak-
ing the above-mentioned improvements. The income of the School should

34 JOUEXAL OF PliOCEEDIXGS.

not be taxed as regards this debt further than to meet the annual
interest on the bonds. For the ultimate payment of the principal, the
School must look to the assistance of the Dioceses supporting it, and
to its many friends everywhere within and without our Church. We
recommend, therefore, this matter of St. Mary's bonded indebtedness to
this Convention and to all well-wishers of St, Mary's.

The Rev. Francis ]\I. Osborue presented the following

REPOET OE THE COMMITTEE OX CHUKCH WOKK AT THE
UXIVEESITY OF XOETH CAEOLIX'A.

The Committee on Church Work at the University beg leave to make
the following report :

During the past year the Committee have held three meetings, as
follows: One in the month of October last at Chapel Hill, meeting with
the representatives of the vestry of the Chapel of the Cross, Chapel Hill,
and of a Committee of the Diocese of East Carolina: one in January,
1910, at Raleigh, during the session of the Layman's Conference in the
Church of the Good Shepherd, and one this morning.

The result of the meeting in October at Chapel Hill was the arrange-
ment of a plan by which the income for the work at the University
coming from the three Dioceses in North Carolina should be so co-_
ordinated that the minister at that place may receive his salary with
promptness and regularity each month. The scale of annual appor-
tionment for support of this work was thus arranged:

Diocese of North Carolina $600.00

Diocese of East Carolina 600.00

Chapel of the Cross, Chapel Hill 600.00

Missionary District of Asheville 200.00

Total $2,000.00

The meeting of the Committee at Raleigh in January took up the
question of putting the support of this work on a more permanent basis
and the adoption of some plan by which the amount of $2,000 per
annum may be permanently secured for this work without being burden-
some to the Church at large. On account of the smallness of the num-
ber of those present no definite action was taken beyond the ordering

Diocese or Xorth Carolina, 1910. 35

of the pieparatioii of a list of Chiirchinen who are alumni of the Uni-
versity. Dr. Joseph Hyde Pratt also suggested the need of a partial
endowment of this work.

At the meeting of tlie committee held this nwrning the following
resolutions were adoi)tod :

I. Rcsolrcd. That having personal and indirect knowledge of the
progress of the Church's work among the students of the University
under the leadership of the Rev. R. W. Hogue, we herewith express our
great satisfaction witli what has been done and is being done for the
extension of the power and intluence of the Church in that institution;
and we believe that what has been accomplished is ample justification
for all eflorts and expenditure that have l)een made for this important
work among the future leaders of the Church in North Carolina.

II. Rcsoh-cd. That in reviewing the Treasurer's report we are grati-
fied to find that there is a widespread interest in this work among the
congregations throughout the Diocese, as is evidenced by the liberality
of the offerings taken during the year according to the recommendation
of the last Convention.

III. Resolved That it is the opinion of this Committee that a partial
endowment of at least ten thousand dollars ($10,000) should be secured
for this work in order to relieve in a measure the Church at large of
what it has undertaken to do for this Avork, and thus prevent this under-
taking from becoming onerous. Therefore, the Committee petition this
Convention to set its approval upon this plan and to empower Dr. Joseph
Hyde Pratt, of Chapel Hill, to act as Chairman of a Special Committee
to raise this endowment.

which, on his motion, was referred to the Committee on
Canons:

Diocese of ^s'oeth Carolina, 1910. 37

Resolved, That Article IX, section 3, of the Constitution, be amended
by the omission in line 2 of the words "males of the age of twenty-one
years."

Elections being in order^ Mr. Win. L. London nominated
as members of the Standing Committee the members elected
at the last C<nivention. In the absence of other nominations,
the Chairman was reqnested to cast the ballot for them and
they were declared elected.

dominations were made and Tellers appointed for the
election of Deputies to the General Convention.

The ballots being received and counted, the Tellers reported
as elected, the Kev. I. McK. Pittenger, D.D., the Rev. S. S.
Bost, the Rev. E. A. Osborne, Mr. J. C. Buxton, Mr. R. H.
Battle, ]\Ir. Win. E. Erwin and Mr. John S. Henderson.

A second ballot for a fourth Clerical Deputy resulted in
the election of the Rev. Alfred R. Berkeley.

The election of Supplementary Deputies being next in
order, it was, on motion, ordered that the Chairman be re-
quested to cast the ballot of the Convention for the four
clergymen receiving the next largest number of votes after
those who were already chosen Deputies. This being done,
the Chair declared as so elected the Rev. M. A. Barber, the
Rev. Bertram E. Brown, the Rev. J. E. Ingle and the Rev.
Richard W. Hogue.

Xominations being here made for Supplementary Lay
Deputies, the ballots were cast and the Tellers reported as
elected Mr. Wm. L. London, Mr. S. S. Nash, Mr. Thos. H.
Battle and :\Ir. Thos. H. Webb.

The Rev. Isaac W. Hughes having resigned his place on
the Board of Managers of the Thompson Orphanage, and the
terms of the Rev. A. deR. Meares and Mr. Wm. A. Smith

Wm. E. Cox to complete the term of Mr. Hughes, and the
Rev. W. H. Hardin and :\rr. Wm. A. Smith to serve until

38 JOURXAL OF Pkoceedixgs.

On motion of Mr. Chas. E. Johnson, the Rev. Thadcleus
A. Cheatham was in like manner elected Clerical Trnstee of
the University of the Sonth.

The Rev. R. B. Owens presented the following report of the
Snnday School Commission:

The Secretary of the Sunday School Commission begs leave to report
as follows:

The act of the Convention creating the Sunday School Commission
provides that the membership thereof shall consist of '"The Bishop of
the Diocese, all clergymen canonically resident in the Diocese, and two
delegates from each Sunday School." Xo meeting of the Commission
as a whole has been held, and, on account of the large membership, it
will probably be found impracticable to have such a meeting except at
the time of our annual Conventions. It was anticipated, however, that
the chief work of the Commission would be done by and through its
subcommittees. This report will therefore consist mainly of some ac-
count of what has been accomplished or attempted by these Committees
during the year.

The Subcommittee on ''Organization and Arrangement,"' acting in
the capacity of a general executive Committee for the Commission, met
at the See House in Raleigh, June 21, 1909. At this meeting the general
interests of the Sunday School work in the Diocese were considered, and
different plans for improving the schools discussed. Among other
things, the Chairmen of the Committees on "Curriculum," and on
"Training of Teachers," were requested to take up as soon as possible
the subjects assigned their respective Committees, and report their
conclusions to a subsequent meeting of this Convention. It was also
planned to provide and send representatives to speak in the interest
of Sunday School work wherever their services might be desired
throughout the Diocese. As the result of this plan, addresses have
been made in Charlotte, Concord, Mayodan and Oxford, but it has
largely failed because of a lack of funds to pay the traveling expenses
of speakers, and because it has been a difficult matter to find speakers
w^ho could give the neecessary time.

The Chairman of the Finance Committee reports that his Com-
mittee sent a circular letter to every clergyman and Parish in the
Diocese, stating the plans of the Commission, and the need of funds
to carry out those plans and asking for contributions, and that the
total response to this appeal was a contribution of $C from one Parish,
and $4 from the Sunday School of the same Parish. I will say
here that if the Commission is to accomplish anything worth while, it
is absolutely necessary that it shall have at least a small fund out of
which to pay such necessary items as traveling expenses, sample text-
books, postage, etc.

Diocese of Xokth Carolixa, 1910. 39

Another mooting of this Committee on Ammgoments was held
August 17th, but veiy little of a practical nature was accomplished.
On September 29th a third meeting was held, at which were present
representatives of all the subcommittees. At this meeting a report
from the Committee on Curriculum was considered, and after full dis-
cussion it was recommended -that for the present the Sunday Schools
of the Diocese adopt for use either "the Joint Diocesan Series of Sun-
day School lessons'" or the course reconunendod by the New York Sun-
day School Commission.

Meetinss have been held by the other subcommittees from time to
time. As Secretary of the Commission, I have in hand reports from
the Chairmen of each of them, and these reports show that at least
an effort has been made to do something for the advancement of our
Sunday School work. As the substance of several of these reports is
included above they are not given here. But two of them I desire to
submit practically in full to this Convention.

I. The Committee on Curriculum, School Methods and Administra-
tion reports that: 1st. It has purchased a full set of text-books recom-
mended for Sunday School use by the Xew York Sunday School Commis-
sion, which were distributed among the several members of the Com-
mittee for examination.

•2d. It has endeavored to reach some agreement upon a standard cur-
riculum, to recommend for use in Sunday Schools. This alone it finds a
task of no small magnitude, and one that will require continued and
painstaking labor if the w^ork is to be thoroughly and conscientiously
done.

In fixing a curriculum, the subject matter to be taught demands first
attention." On this point, we take it to be unanimously accepted in
this Church that the Bible and the Church Catechism constitute the
text of first importance and of pre-eminent authority.

But the subject matter determined upon, there yet remains to be
established, order of presentation, gradation, and, as far as the Bible is
concerned, selection.

All this calls not merely for careful thought and sound judgment,
but also for experience. We have deemed it best, therefore, not to at-
tempt now to construct, theoretically, a curriculum of our own. But
having examined with some care curricula set forth by the Joint Dio-
cesan Sunday School Commission, and by the Xew Y^ork Sunday School
Commission, we commend for trial each of these, as follows: "The
Primary and Middle departments" of the Joint Diocesan Sunday School
Commission, and the First and Second "Schools" of the Xew York Sun-
day School Commission, to the extent that these curricula relate to the
subject matter of instruction, order of arrangement, and gradation. In
both of these curricula the effort is made to adapt grade to age. There

40 JOUKXAL OF PkOCEEDIXGS.

is, of course, between the two a necessary correlation, but the actual
adaptation of one to the other depends upon several variables, and
must be made by a living teacher as these varial)les sliall in any given
case determine.

The Committee does not as yet recommend any text-books. The ex-
amination of those referred to above does but convince them that this
should be done with the utmost caution. As a general principle, text-
books can not be safely adopted in groups, or even in a series, but each
single book should be adopted or rejected upon its individual merits.
Any Committee to recommend text-books ought to hold for a term of
years, and as a detail, should have an appropriation of funds for the
purchase of books for examination. Those text-books already examined
by this Committee were purchased at private expense.

As to the other work assigned to this Committee in the subsection
of the report already cited, we have this to say:

1. "To learn the condition of each Sunday School in the Diocese along
the lines of curriculum school methods, and administration, in order to
suggest to other schools the good points learned," involves an amount
of labor which, so far, we have not had time to bestow.

2. ''To try to take the place of a Field Secretary" is a task which
with the utmost willingness to serve the Sunday School cause, as far
as we can, we would hardly know how to undertake to perform.

But the consideration of the matters referred to the Committee has
forced upon them the conviction that the only way the labors of the
several advisory Committees of the Sunday School Commission can
serve for much good is to send out a competent Field Secretary to give
them effect. And we respectfully urge that a Field Secretary be elected
and put to \vork as soon as possible.

Respectfully submitted, X. C. Hughes,

Chairman.

II. The Committee on the Training of Teachers, submits the follow-
ing report :

The object of the mental training of teachers should be to produce a
teacher who will be able and willing to master the whole of a lesson,
and to teach it, without the book, if necessary, in an intelligent and in-
teresting way to the class. In other words, to produce a Sunday School
teacher who will do work in a Sunday School as good as that required
in a day school.

This training seems to us to involve two elements:

First. The general training through the Sunday School itself to fit
some of the scholars to become teachers.

DlOCE.SE OF XoKTlI CakoEIXA, lt>10. 41

Si't'oml. The sjx'cial tiaiiiin.u' of those who are teacliers alreatly, f)r
definitely wish to prepare themselves to be teachers.

We respeetfully snlmiit the following suggestions, some of which may
seem to touch undulv on the methods of conducting the Sunday School
itself. In s;)me casi'> the suggestions belong partly under both the
first and second heads.

1. A. The Sunilay Schoid should be taught so tliat those who have
gone through are jjrepared to be teachers. This involves, (a) a sys-
tematic course. (bi regular examinations, (e) regular promotion, (d)
graduation with -ouic kind of certificate to show what has been done.

B. The regular routine work, organization, etc., should be under a
regular suiierintendent under the Rector.

C. There should be an "adjunct teachers' "" class on Sunday in the
Sunday School from which substitutes may be taken. It will be
obvious that the above involves an exceedingly difficult problem. As
long as we are content with a poor Sunday School, run on lines fatal
to the success of a day school, we will continue to have what we are
content with, and will not produce good teachers. The above sugges-
tions can be carried out as in any other school only by devoted atten-
tion to the quality and standard of the work done, rather than to the
size of the Sunday School, where everything is governed by the desire
to take in everybody with little thought for what we teach them after
we have got them.

2. A. Have a weekly Sunday School teachers' meeting on a week
•clay for study, instruction, and discussion, taught as a rule by the
Rector.

B. The Rector must create his own staff of teachers and train them.

C. Take no teachers except those who will be regular in attendance,
both at Sunday School and at the weekly Sunday School teachers' meet-
ing. This principle is taken for granted in a day school, and is essen-
tial to success.

D. If the number of such teachers is limited, limit the number of
scholars. Results should be aimed at, and not simply numbers.

E. In the larger cities a school for teachers could be a joint matter.

F. The older scholars might l>e in this class as a part of the Sunday
School work.

G. Parents, and others who do not at the time expect to become
teachers, might also be included.

H. All teachers should read in succession some well-chosen books on
the art of teaching in general, and the management of Sunday Schools
in ])articular.

42 JouEXAL OF Peoceedix

GS.

I. Each Sunday School should have a circulatino library of such
books.

J. A Dioce-an Sunday School Conimission should also circulate such
books from town to town.

While the above reconunendations may seem to advocate a standard
that it is impossible to attain, we respectfully submit that practically
all of these things can be done if we are willing to have any real policy
whatever, and to make a start at least in a direction which will produce
good Sunday Schools and good teachers. If we are content with condi-
tions different from the above, we shall not advance. If we are not
content with conditions as they are, we believe that the desired result
may be attained in all cases by working definitely towards the ideals
outlined above.

The following books have been recoinmended :

Harmony of the Gospels, Stevens and Burton: Life of Christ, Abbott;
How to Study the Life of Christ, Alford A. Butler: Talks to Teachers,
James: Bible League Primer Xo. 1, Daniel S. Gregory: Bible League of
Xorth America, Bible House, Xew York.

Respectfully submitted for the Committee,

Geo. W. Lay. Cliftirman.

It may seem to some that but little practical good has been accom-
plished by the Commission during the past year : but it must be re-
membered that it can only point the way. It cannot go into the dif-
ferent Sunday Schools and do the work recommended, and if the sug-
gestions given above are, as far as possible, followed, we are confident
that results will follow.

All of which is respectfully submitted.

R. B. OwE>:.s. Secretary.

The Rev. E. A. Osbonie offered the following resolution,
which was adopted :

Resolved. That it is the sense of this Convention that the present
ec^uipment of the Thompson Orphanage and Training Institution is
entirely inadequate, and that new buildings should be erected as soon as
possible: and therefore the Convention endorses heartily the work of the
Federation of Thompson Orphanage Guilds, and does hereby authorize
them to appoint one or more of their members to travel through the
Diocese of Xorth Carolina to solicit funds for the new buildings to be
erected under the direction of the Board of Managers, and to awaken
further interest in this worthy institution.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE OX FIXAXCE.

The Finance Committee beg leave to report as follows:
We have examined the Treasurer's Report, together with his deposits
and securities, and have found them all correct.

We recommend the adoption of the following resolutions:

1. That the Episcopal and Contingent Fund be raised by the usual
assessment of twelve per cent upon the minister's salary and current
expenses. If the minister's salary has not been paid in full, twelve per
cent of the amount promised; if any church be vacant, twelve per cent
upon the amount previously promised the minister. To find out what
the individual assessment will be for this year, reference should be made
to parochial reports in Convention Journal of 1909.

2. That the balance of $13.05 appearing in Treasurer's report against
St. Luke's, Tarboro, be remitted; that the balance of $10 appearing
against Hamlet Mission be remitted, and that the assessment for this
year be fixed at $10; that the balance of $24 against St. Clement's,
Ringwood, be remitted, and the assessment fixed at $2.50; remit arrears
of $41.50 against Epiphany, Leaksville, and fix assessment at $25.

o. We recommend a renewal of the following special assessments:
Church of the Transfiguration, Smithfield, $15; Emmanuel Church,
Southern Pines, $20; St. Stephen's, Duke, $25; Church of the Messiah,
Mayodan, $25: St. Alban's, Littleton, $24; All Saints, Roanoke Rapids,
$10: St. Thomas, Reidsville, $22.50; St. Andrew's, Charlotte, $2.50;
St. Mary's Charlotte, $5; St. Augustine's, Raleigh, $25; St. Mary's
School (voluntary), $20.

4. That upon payment to Treasurer of $100, all claims against St.
Andrew's Church, Greensboro, for the Episcopal and Contingent Fund bo
canceled: and that the same thing be done with reference to St. Barnabas
Church, Greensboro, upon payment to Treasurer of $150. It is mutually
agreed that the assessment upon the new Parish of Holy Trinity, Greens-
boro, be fixed for tliis vear at $200.

46 JouRXAL OF Peoceedixgs.

5. That the Treasurer be instructed to pay the sum of $50 to each of
the Clerical Delegates attending the next session of the General Con-
vention in Cincinnati.

Resioectfully submitted, Sidney S. Bost.

Chair man.

The report was. on motion, adopted.

Mr. Albert L. Cox offered the foHowing resolution, which

w^as adopted:

Resolved, That this Convention most earnestly recommend to the
Vestries and congregations throughout the Diocese the urgent necessity
of more adequately caring for our Clergy by increasing their stipends
in a measure commensurate with the increased cost of living.

On motion of Mr. S. S. Xash, the Secretary was instructed
to send to each congregation in the Diocese a copy of this
resolution.

The Kev. John London presented the following

REPORT OF THE COINIMITTEE OX THE STATE OF THE CHURCH.

There are many important subjects in connection with Church work
in our Diocese, on which much might be written, but we must pass by
many of them and confine ourselves to those of the greatest importance.

The work of the Secretary of the Diocese is highly commended by
your Committee, for the careful and efficient manner in which he ha^*
tabulated the reports, and the ease with which it enables your Com-
mittee to report the condition of the Church.

We wish to call attention to some important points in connection with
the reports from the Parishes.

About 109 reports should have been received. This year the reports
were supposed to be closed on March 31st, and then made out and for-
Avarded to the Secretary by the 20th of April at the latest. Of the 109,
50 were received by April 21st, and 50 others between April 21st and
April 30th. The facts speak for themselves. It is impossible to make
out a proper report of the state of the Church if, when three weeks are
given to make out these reports, we still receive less than half at the
time require'd.

Our report has been made out on the basis of the 100 reports received
up to April 30th.

CAXOXICAL OFFERINGS.

The canons of the Diocese require each clergyman to take vip ofl'erings
for certain objects. Seven are specified, and are printed on the back

Dkkese of XoRTii Cakolixa, 1910. 47

of tlie Joiunal. We desire to call attention to tlie nunil)er who have
disobeyed the direction of the canon in sending- in otierinps for these
purposes.

The following shows the nnnibei- of congregations which took the
ofterings :

For Diocesan ^lissions So per cent.

For Episcopal and Contingent Fund 8,3 per cent.

For General ^Missions G7 per cent.

For Thompson Orphanage .33 per cent.

For General Clergy Relief Fund 34 per cent.

For Theological Department of Sewanee 20 per cent.

For Diocesan Education Fund 17 per cent.

TT ese figures sliow the percentage of congregations which have t:iken
up these otierings, out of a hundred which sliould have so done. It
appears that for the canonical offerings as a whole, 51 per cent of the
offerings have been taken up, according to the reports received.

It seems obvious that the canonical offerings ought to be taken up as
a matter of conscience by every clergyman who has promised to obey the
Canons of the Church, and of the Diocese. If any of the objects for
which a canonical offering- is required ought to be omitted, a large
majority of the Clergy are in a position of proposing to the Convention
that one or more of these objects might be taken off of the list of
canonical offerings and put in the list of "Other Objects Recommended."'

Inasmuch as a very small proportion of the Clergy have taken up
offerings for American Church Building Fund, or for the Theological
Department at Sewanee, 20 per cent, your Committee reconunend tlie
adoption of the following resolutions:

1. Resolved. That Chapter I, Canon XIV, Section 1, be amended by
omitting the words "'American Church Building Fund" and "Theological
Department at Sewanee." And inasmuch as only 17 per cent of the
congregations have given offerings for the "Diocesan Education Fund,'*

2. Resolved, That the name of this fund be changed to "Fund to Aid
Candidates for Holy Orders."

3. Resolved. That the "American Church Building Fund" and "Theo-
logical Department at Sewanee" be printed on the last page of the cover
of the Journal under "Other Objects Recommended.'*

4. Resolved. That Chapter I, Canon XIV, Section 1, l>e amended by
the insertion as line 11 of the words "General Clergy Relief Fund.*'

Of the canonical offerings required, only ten Parishes, so far as we
have been able to observe, out of one hundred Parishes or congregations,
have taken up all the offerings as required by the canons.

48 JouR^'AL OF Pkoceedixgs.

THE DIOCESAN MISSIONARY WORK.

The reports of the Archdeacons and the Missionaries show that ex-
cellent work is being done throughout the Diocese, and we emphasize
the importance of sustaining and increasing our efforts.

The continued growth of the population in the Diocese makes it most
apparent that there must be an equal growth in the work of Missions.
We would call upon the clerical and lay members of the Church to give
this important work their most loyal and hearty support by an increased
offering. Our Missions are an integral part of our own Church life. We
live upon the very help we give.

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL.

To this feature of the Church's work we turn, namely, the children,
the future of the Church, and we do not know of a more important
subject which demands her most serious consideration and her best
efforts at the present time. With the reported list of 5,o97 children now
receiving instruction in the Sunday Schools, together with 485 officers
and teachers, and their liberal contribution to ^fissions, we feel the
Diocese has just reason to be thankful. The duties and responsibilities
of the Church along this line are obvious, the uplift and betterment of
her children by teaching them lofty and holy Christian sentiments will
be productive of great future benefit to the Church, in the building up
of the Church's life. Much remains to be done to make this work more
perfect, and we trust to the wisdom and discretion of the Church to
devise some means to accomplish tlie desired end.

CLERGY SUPPORT.

Turning our attention to the salaries of the Clergy, we note that this
subject demands our most serious consideration, ^lany of our Clergy
are meagerly paid. As a rule, there is sufficient income among the
parishioners of each Parish to provide a proper support for the clergy-
man. Often the unpaid and small salaries are tlie outcome of sheer
carelessness and bad business methods in the Parish. Where a Vestry
develops and sustains with energy systematic and business-like methods
for gathering in the income, the raising of the Rector's salary becomes
possible and there is cheer all along the line. The support of the Clergy
is, in the opinion of your Committee, the mo-t important practical
question before the Church to-day.

GENERAL CLERGY RELIEF FUND.

The contributions during the past year are not as large as they should
be for the General Clergy Relief Fund. The General Convention has laid
upon every clergyman the duty of presenting this matter of relief and
pension once a year to his congregation and to secure an offering. This
fund needs for tlie relief of pres-ing wants twice t1:e amount at its.

firmity or ;»<;('. Our Church must keep abreast of the times or lose the
respect of the world. The five-million endowment for the pensioning of
the aged Clergy will be magnificent when it comes.

• ST. maky's school.

In the report of the Bishop of the Diocese for the Trustees of St.
;Mary's School we have called to our attention the great improvement in
the equipment and increased accommodations of this institution, which
now has dormitories and rooms to hold 180 boarders. Your Committee
feel that they need not call attention to the blessing of this institution
to the Church through sixty -eight years past, but desire to urge the
great importance, especially to the Clergy, of keeping the claims of
this our Diocesan school before the parents and daughters of all the
good people of our State, and in every other reasonable way promote
the interest of the same.

CHI'HCH WORK AT THE STATE UNIVERSITY.

We note with pleasure the increasing influence of our Church work
at Chapel Hill. ' Under the leadership of the Rector of the Chapel of the
Cross, the Church is becoming a spiritual powder, and her influence is
steadily growing in the community. This work is not local, but general,
and we urge that the work be supported by the Diocese.

THE THOMPSON ORPHAXAGE.

Your Committee notes with satisfaction the prosperous condition of
the Thompson Orphanage. The report shows that the institution closed
the fiscal year, March the 31st, with $1,438.69 on hand. But this sum
is not sufficient to support the institution during the summer months,
when few contributions are received and the expenses go on. Your
Committee would recommend that the Parishes make an offering oftener
than the annual one made at Thanksgiving, and that the Sunday Schools
be asked to make regular contributions at stated times. We would
further urge liberal oft'erings toward the new buildings now in view.

HOSPITAL WORK.

We note with pleasure the encouraging annual reports presented of
Good Samaritan and of St. Peter's Hospitals at Charlotte, and also of
St. Agnes' Hospital at Raleigh. Great credit is due the noble women
and laymen who support this good and important work.

THE woman's Al'XILlAKY.

We observe with gratification the noble work that tlie Woman's
Auxiliary is doing for Diocesan support and Church extension. Future
generations will bless God's Holy name for their efforts, urging us for-

ward and upward, and for the illuminating examples shown by their
noble gifts.

WORK AMOXG THE XEGROES.

The outlook for the colored work in the Diocese was never more prom-
ising than at the present time.

In comparing the year's statistics with those of last year we observe
a gain of 28 families. The gain of 222 in baptized persons. In bap-
tisms 12. In communicants 53. There is also an increase in the figures
relating to the Sunday School — teachers 10, pupils 124. In the day
schools there are now 22 teachers and 923 pupils. Contributions for
the past year, $3,705.62. This report furnishes us with just grounds for
the commendation of the Archdeacon and his faithful co-workers for
the upbuilding of the Church.

The responsibilities and difficulties confronting the Church in this
important work are great and many. It is not to be expected that our
Church will obtain any great hold upon the masses of the colored people
until they are adequately provided with facilities in the shape of good
church buildings, schoolhouses, consecrated teachers and faithful minis-
ters to carry on the work. A strong effort should be made to place the
colored work on a more progressive basis.

The Church has a responsibility for all within its borders. Xo offer-
ings have heretofore been recommended by the Convention to be taken
up by the congregations of white people for the work among the colored
people. Certainly we would not act uuAvisely if we should all take up
collections in congregations of white people for this purpose.

Your Committee therefore offer the following resolution:

Resolved, That the congregations in the Convocations of Raleigh and
Charlotte be recommended to take up a collection each year for the
benefit of the Convocation of the Colored People.

This work has been supported in this Diocese entirely by offerings
from the colored people themselves, and from white people outside of
the Diocese. The Bishop needed more money for his colored work, and
he has asked the Convocation of Raleigh to contribute from its funds
for this purpose. Your Committee doubts the wisdom and legality of
appropriating from the funds of the Convocation of Raleigh for the
work of another Convocation, though they are entirely in favor of
assisting the colored people. It seems, therefore, to your Committee
best to recommend that the white congregations in the Diocese should
voluntarily, if they see fit, contribute specially for the work of the
colored people.

We note with pleasure the increase of the Bishop's salary that has
been voted by the Convention.

We urge upon the congregations in the Diocese to observe that the
assessments for the support of the Episcopate and for the Convention ex-

Diocese of Xokth Caroeixa, 1910. 51

peuses of the Diocese are due in quarterly installments, on or before the
first days of July, October, January and April (Chapter I, Canon XIII).

Quarterly payments can not be made by the Treasurer unless the
assessments are remitted to him each quarter. We therefore urge that
all ministers in the Diocese be requested to see that these quarterly
remittances are made promptly.

In making this report it is gratifying to note that it indicates
marked progress in the work of the Church throughout the Diocese, and
furnishes us Nvith just grounds for gratitude to our Heavenly Father.
Respectfully submitted, John London.

Chairman.

The resolutions contained in the report affecting the canons
and canonical offerings were, on motion^ referred to the Com-
mittee on Canons, with instructions to report to the next
Convention; but on motion of the Eev. Mr. Lay, the vote to
refer was reconsidered and. unanimous consent for immediate
action being given, it was

Resolved, That Chapter I, Canon XIV, section 1, be amended by the
insertion, as line 11, of the words ''General Clergy Relief: Annually."

On motion of the Eev. Henry T. Cocke, the other three
amendments offered by the Committee in this connection were
referred to the Committee as before proposed.

On motion of the Eev. John London, the resoltition offered
by the Committee recommending that the congregations in the
Convocations of Ealeigh and Charlotte shotild make an annual
offering for the benefit of the Convocation of the Colored
People was adopted.

Mr. ^\m. A. Smith offered the following resolution, which
was adopted:

■ Resolved. That it is the sense of this Convention that the Clergy
should call the special attention of their several charges to their duty
to support the Theological Department of the University of the South.

The Eev. Walter J. Smith, from the Conmiittee appointed
at the last Convention to confer with representatives of the
Diocese of East Carolina and the District of Asheville as to
the advisability of establishing a Church paper in the State,
reported that such a conference had been had, and that in the

interest of the common work it had been agreed to merge the
sej^arate Diocesan papers withont waiting to report to the sev-
eral Conventions ; wherenpon the Rev. Alfred R. Berkeley
presented the following report of the Business Manager of
The Carolina Churcliman:

The Business Manager of The Carolina Churchman begs to report
that the committees appointed severally by the Diocese of East Carolina,
the Diocese of Xorth Carolina, and the District of "Asheville, Avith refer-
ence to a Church paper for the whole State, met in Charlotte on the 6th
of August, 1909, for a conference on the question in hand. The Com-
mittee from the District of Asheville was not present in person, but
we were assured of its interest in the matter and of its desire to co-
operate with the other committees in any practical plan for a State
paper.

The result of the conference was an unanimous decision to merge
The Mission Herald and The Messenger of Hope into one paper, to be
called The Carolina Churchman, and make that paper the official organ
of the Episcopal Church in the State of Xorth Carolina. In considera-
tion of the fact that the joint committee having the matter under
advisement was vested with authority to act, the plan for such a paper
was outlined and its editors appointed, and arrangements were made to
have the first issue appear October 1, 1909. The Business Manager of
The Mission Herald was made Business Manager of The Carolina Church-
man, and therefore submits his report for The Mission Herald from
May 15, 1909, to October 1, 1909; and for The Carolina Churchman from
October 1, 1909, to May 1, 1910.

There were four issues of The 3Iission Herald up to October 1st, three
issues of 1,200 copies each and one issue of 2,500 copies, making a total
of 6,100. From October 1st to INIay 1st, seven issues of The Carolina
Churchman have been sent out, averaging 1,900 copies each, or a total
of 13,400 copies. The number of pages have been increased from 16 to
20, to provide for the special departments for the Diocese of Xorth
Carolina, the District of Asheville, and the Thompson Orphanage.

The present circulation of The Carolina Churchman is 1,684. Of this
number, 1,493 are paying subscribers, and 191 go to advertisers, ex-
changes, the clergy, and the editors. Of the paying subscribers, 1,170
are paid to date and 323 are in arrears. The Diocese of East Carolina
has 460 paid and 152 in arrears: the Diocese of Xorth Carolina has 417
paid and 114 in arrears: the District of Asheville has 145 paid and 33
in arrears: miscellaneous 148 paid and 24 in arrears.

For a clear understanding of these statistics it must be borne in mind
that 288 of the subscribers marked "paid" came over from the subscrip-
tion list of The Messenger of Hope. All of these were paid in advance
to The Messenger of Hope, some as far as 1918, and most of them for

Diocese of Xokth Carolina, 1910. 53

considc'rable time. No funds wero tunieil over to The Carolina Cliurch-
niaii by The Messe}i(/er of Hope to carry these advance subscriptions,
and only 20 of the subscribers themselves have made remittances to
The Carolina Churchman. The available funds for the maintenance of
the paper are, therefore, much less than these statistics would indicate;
and the funds that accrue have to bear the abnormal strain of carrying
the -iCiS unexpired subscriptions of The Messenger of Hope. This condi-
tion will right itself gradually as the subscriptions expire and are
renewed: but for the present it is a handicap against which The Caro-
lina Churchman has to work.

The cost of the paper has of necessity been above normal on account
of extra expenses incident to the change from the former regime to the
present one. But for the substantial support of Bishop Strange and
Bishop Cheshire, it could not have been done without sending out a
smaller and cheaper paper than we now have. To them, therefore, is
due a large share of credit for the establishment of The Carolina
Churchman in its present shape. The Church people throughout the
State have received it cordially, and are supporting it loyally.

In the following financial statement I give but one account for the
four months of The Mission Herald and the seven months of The Caro-
lina Churchman. I can not well separate the two.

At the conclusion of the readino- of the report, the Rev.
Alfred R. Berkeley offered the following resolution, which
was adopted :

Resolved, That The Carolina Churchman be adopted as the official
organ of the Diocese of North Carolina, and that the appointment of
Diocesan Editors and Business Managers rest with the Bishop.

The members of the Committee on Church Work at the
University were, on motion, re-elected.

On motion of Mr. R. H. Battle, the Trusteeship of the
Boys' School at Salisbury was abolished.

Rev. Edward L. Ogilby, Chairman of the Special Com-

The Committee to whom was referred tlie Report of the Trustees to

The Rev. Thos. G. Taulkner, Chairman of the Committee
on Unfinished Business, reported that there was nothing in
the way of unfinished business requiring the attention of the
Convention.

On motion of the Rev. Geo. AV. Lay, it Avas

Resolved, That whereas, the necessity of publicity and intelligent
knowledge has been emphasized at onr meeting as essential to our
Diocesan work; therefore, this Convention urges upon the Clergy and
laity, as a simple and practical way of helping our mission work, that
they use all possible means to secure subscriptions to The Carolina
Churchman, and to bring it about that every one of our people read
this paper.

The hour of noon having arrived, the Bishop said the
Litany.

The Rev. Edwin A. Osborne then presented the following
memorial of the late Rev. Francis J. Murdoch, D.D. :

The Coniniittee appointed to prepaie a minute in regard to tlie deatli
of the Rev. Francis John>tone Murdoch, D.D., respectfully sulmiit the
following report:

In the decease of our beloved brother, the Church laments the loss of
one whose great ability, usefulness and Christian example will Ix* most
sadly missed in this Diocese, and in our section of the country.

His faithful and devoted piety and self-denying labors, regular
attendance upon the meetings of the Convention and upon all meetings
of the Church's appointment, his wise and judicious counsel and learned
advice, were always freely given and of the greatest value and advantage
to the Church. He was a firm and steadfast believer in the Holy Cath-
olic Church, and his life was wholly consecrated to maintaining and
imparting to others the doctrines and principles of the same. A man
of remarkably strong mind, great practical sense and extensive influence,
he devoted much of his time and means to building chapels and to the
education and training of young men for the ministry and other useful
callings: and the fruits of his labors and liberality have enriched the
Church and the conntry. As a member of the General Convention he
ably represented the Church in the Diocese for many years, where he
commanded the respect and confidence of that august body. As a
preacher his discourses were full of valuable, edifying and comforting-
instruction, and always displayed a deep knowledge and comprehension
of spiritual truth, and a peculiar power of imparting it to others.

Though someAvhat reserved in manner, his was a heart sanctified by
Divine grace, most tender, and overflowing with love for his fellow-men
and devoted loyalty to our Lord Jesus Christ and His Holy Church.

Therefore, be it

Resolved, That we shall ever honor and cherish the memory of our
deceased brother; that a page of the Journal be set apart in order to
express and commemorate these sentiments of the Church in this Dio-
cese; and that a copy of this minute be sent to his family, with the
assurance of our deep and heartfelt sympathy in their great sorrow.

Pending the consideration of the memorial, the members
of the Woman's Anxiliary to the Board of Missions entered

Alfred R. Berkeley, after which the discussion of the memo-

members of the Convention, both white and colored.

The Bishop took the chair and called the Convention to
order.

The report of the Committee presenting the memorial of
Dr. Murdoch was further discussed and then unanimously
adopted by a rising vote of the Convention.

The Rev. Wm. H. Ball presented the following memorial of
the late Rev. Frederick A. Fetter for the Committee ap-
pointed for that purpose :

The Rev. Frederick Augustus Fetter, who departed this life, in the
Communion of the Catholic Church, January- 18, 1910, aged 71 years,
the beloved pastor of St. Paul's Church, Monroe, and St. Timothy's
Mission, Olive Branch, X. C.

Seldom has any one endeared himself so much to a community in so
short a time as did our l>eloved biother to the people in the above-
named places.

To the members of his own communion he was a faithful and devoted
pastor and spiritual father; ever diligent and unsparing of himself,
and at the same time by his genial, warm-hearted and cordial manner,
with them and others, he won the esteem and love of men in general.
And his earnest, scriptural and impressive sermons attracted and edified
many who were not usually attendants upon the services of the Church.

He was a man of strong faith, a devoted student of the Bible, an im-
pressive preacher, and a loyal adherent of the Church. As a friend he
was most cordial, affectionate and true. As a pastor and minister of
the Gospel, he was faithful, diligent and self-denying. As a Christian,
humble and consecrated, and as a father most tender and affectionate.
Though tenderly devoted to the members of his own family, and they
to him, and not dependent upon his ministerial labors for support, for

APPENDIX A.

ADDRESS OF THE BISHOP.

Brcthroi of tJic Clergy and Laibj:

This iRw and beautiful structure, in which we are assem-
bled in the Xinetv-fourth Annual Cunvention of the Diocese,
is an indication of the new life and growth of this parish,
and 1 trust, in the Diocese at large. The old St. Paul's has
some very sacred memories for me. In it I was ordained
to the Priesthood May 30, 1880; and in it sixteen years ago
I first presided in this Diocesan Convention as your Bishop.
I therefore fully understand the feelings which the older
members of this congTegation must experience in seeing the
old building and site give place to the new. But it is the
natural and necessary order ; and it is the method and the
means whereby God accomplishes His good purposes for us
and for the w^orld. And as these outer and lesser things
change and pass away may we all too experience the inner
change by which our immortal spirit is brought more and
more into conformity with His divine nature and image I

And among the sad but blessed changes to which the
Church of God is subjected, is the removal from this visible
communion of those whom the Church esteems her most
necessary and indispensable workers. Two of our brethren
of the Clergy have been taken from us during the past year,
both of whom stood in peculiarly close personal relations
with me.

Of the Rev. Dr. ]\Iurdoch I do not know how to speak ade-
quately ; and however restrained I might be in my language
concerning him, Avere I to say all I think, I should fear to be
counted extravagant. He was a man of extraordinary intel-
lectual force, and of rare discrimination of judgment and
lucidity of thought. His capacious and vigorous mind
seemed not to feel the burden or difficulty of the most intri-
cate and stubborn problems ; and his ability to set forth in
clear exposition his own views was a constant surprise even
to those who knew him best. This clearness of view and
precision of statement made him a wonderfully attractive

CO Address of the Bispiop.

and successful teacher, as many of our brethren of the Clergy
can testify. And yet all which has been said does not touch
the best and the greatest of that which he was. He was a
little child in humility and reverence and submission to the
teaching and to the discipline of his Heavenly Father and
to his Saviour and Lord. It was a privilege to sit and learn
of him; in his public preaching and exhortation; it was a
greater privilege now and again in the revelations of personal
intercourse and of private discourse to catch brief glimpses
of the gentle and trustful soul, and of the tender and loving
heart, which too often was unsuspected by those who came
in contact only mth his masterful will and intellect iu the
routine of daily conventional and practical life. His heart
was fixed on God, and the Church of God commanded the
full loyalty of his life service. Many of us feel that we shall
never find another who can supply his place to us.

The.Eev. Frederick A. Fetter was the first person whom it
was my privilege to ordain to the Holy Ministry, and, though
ten or twelve years my senior loved to call himself my eldest
son. He was a man full of love and goodness, of childlike
faith and piety, with a heart responsive to the demand of
every kindly relationship of domestic and social life. He
was an excellent classical scholar, better than was commonly
understood, for he had no desire or ambition in preaching
except to set forth the simple story of God's love, and to
exhort all men to love one another, and to adorn the doctrine
of God our Saviour by holy and unselfish lives. He loved
his people and was beloved by them. He did not long dela}'
in following the younger brother of his love.

I can not refrain from saying a word, however brief and
inadequate, in regard to the Rev. Francis W. Hilliard, who
has been transferred to the Diocese of Tennessee. Mr. Hil-
liard, though for many years absent from the Diocese, was
one of our oldest Clergy in point of early association and
service. He was always most faithful, earnest and self-sacri-
ficing in his works, and devoted to the Diocese and to iti^
people. It is with very great regret that I miss his face from
this our annual meeting. Domestic circumstances made it
more to his comfort to remove to a distant Diocese. We fol-
low him with our prayers and with our affectionate regrets.

During the year I have officiated upon several occasions outside the
Diocese.

July 4th, upon the invitation of the Rhode Island Society of the
Cincinnati, I preached a sermon before the Society at its annual meeting
in Trinity Church, Xewport. That day being the Fourth Sunday after
Trinity, I also assisted the rector in his service, preached, and admin-
istered the Holy Communion.

July 11th, the Fifth Sunday after Trinity, I preached in All Faith
Church, St. Mary's County, Maryland, Diocese of Washington.

September 12th, the Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity, in the Chapel
of Rest, Caldwell County, in the District of Asheville, I preached; and
on the Sunday following, being in the town of Lenoir, in the same
county, and finding the parish vacant, I said the service and preached
in St. James's Church.

April 27th, I preached in St. Paul's Church, Edenton.

The total of services for the year is as follows : Services, 202 ; ser-
mons, 121; addresses, 29; Holy Communion, 52; confirmations, 517;
baptisms, 6; marriages, 5; funerals, 11. I have consecrated two
churches, and ordained two Priests and four Deacons.

May 16, 1909, being the Fifth Sunday after Easter, I consecrated
"St. Gabriel's Church, Selma"; the erection of which was made possible
by the gift of over one thousand dollars from the Diocesan Branch of the
Woman's Auxiliary, being the Thank Offering collected by the good
women of the Auxiliary at the "Silver Jubilee" of our Diocesan Branch,
held in Calvary Church, Tarboro, May 17, 1907. The Petition for Con-

Diocese of Xortii Cakolixa, 1910. 71

set-ration was read by the Kev. Samuel M. Hanft', the faithful Priest in
charge of the Missions, by whose untiring and zealous labors the work
of the mission is carried on; the Sentence of Consecration was read "by
Archdeacon Hughes, and the sermon was preached by the Rev. Dr.
Pittenger, who was instrumental in arousing the first interest of the
people in this community in the services of our branch of the Church.

October 15, 1909, being the sixteenth anniversary of my Consecra-
tion, I had the pleasure of consecrating the Chapel of the Ascension,
near Fork Church village, Davie County, built by the faithful labors of
the Misses Hairston of that county. The Petition for Consecration was
read by the Rev. Thomas L. Trott, Priest in charge, and the Sentence
of Consecration by Archdeacon Osborne. The sermon was preached by
the Rev. Henry Teller Cocke. The Rev. Simeon .J. M. Brown also
assisted in tlie service.

June 13, 1909, being the First Sundaij after Trinity, in St. Luke's
Church, Salisbury, I ordained to the Priesthood, Locke Winfield Black-
welder and Francis Wellington Ross Arthurs, Deacons, the candidates
being presented by the Rev. Francis J. :\Iurdoch, D.D., and the sermon
being preached by the Rev. Robert Bruce Owens. The Rev. Walter J.
Smith and the two Presbyters above named united with me in the
Imposition of Hands.

June 20, 1909, being the Second Sunday after Trinity, in the Chapel of
St. Augustin's School, Raleigh, I ordained to the Diaconate two young
colored men, graduates of St. Augustin's School, and of the Bishop
Payne Divinity School, Petersburg — James King Satterwhite and Robert
Josiah Johnson. The candidates were presented by Archdeacon Delaney,
and the sermon was preached by me.

June 27, 1909, being the Third Simday after Trinity, in Trinity
Church, Scotland Xeck, acting for the Bishop of Idaho, and upon his
written request and authorization, I ordained as Deacon, Zachary Tay-
lor Vincent. The candidate was presented by Archdeacon Hughes, and
I preached the sermon. The Rev. Geo. W. Lay also assisted in the
service.

October 17th, being the Nineteenth Sunday after Trinity, in the
Church of the Messiah, Mayodan, I ordained to the Diaconate, Cyprian
Porter Willcox. The candidate was presented by the Rev. Alfred R.
Berkeley, and I preached the sermon. Archdeacon Osborne and the
Rev. Walter J. Smith also assisted in the services.

candidates for Holy Orders are, George C. Pollard and
Arthur Myron Cochran ; the postulants are, Foster X. Cox,
Henry A. Willey, Walter L. Loftin, Lewis X. Taylor, Israel
Harding Hughes, and Wm. Hoke Ramsaur.

The following changes have occurred in the fields of labor
of the Clergy since the date of my last address.

The Rev. Thaddeus A. Cheatham has resigned the parish
of St. Timothy's Church, Wilson, and last November became
Rector of St. Luke's Church, Salisbury, made vacant by the
lamented death of the Rev. Dr. Murdoch.

The Rev. Evan A. Edwards, received from the Diocese of
J\raryland. succeeds Mr. Cheatham in St. Timothy's Church.
AYilson.

The Rev. Thos. L. Trott, upon the urgent desire of Arch-
dfacon Hughes, and with the approval of the Bishop, has

Diocese of Xoeth Carolina, 1910. 73

takrii chai-o-e of St. Peter's Church, Stovall, vacant by the
i-diioval of the Rev. :\Ii-. Hilliard, and has given up the
churches at Milton and Cuningham.

St. Paul's, Goshen, which had also been served by the Rev.
Mr. Hilliard, has been assigned to the charge of the Rev.
Fred. H. T. Horsfield.

The Rev. Geo. M. Tolson, received from- Virginia, has
taken charge of the church at Leaksville and at Spray, left
vacant by the removal of the Rev. Mr. Hoover.

The Rev. Wm. H. Ball has continued in charge of the
churches at Wadesboro and Ansonville.

The Rev. Clement G. Bradley has become Rector of
Trinity Church, Scotland Xeck, having charge also of St.
]\ I ark's, Halifax.

The Rev. Hardv H. Phelps, returning to his former Dio-
cese, is officiating 'in Grace Church, Weldon, and the Church
of the Advent, Enfield, having charge also of Ring^ood and
Roanoke Rapids— but has not been transferred to me by
the Bishop of West Virginia.

The Rev. Isaac W. Hughes, received from East Carolina,
is most acceptably filling the vacancy caused by the resig-
nation of the former beloved Rector of the Church of the
Holy Innocents, Henderson.

The Rev. Saml. C. Thompson, received from Albany,
ministered for some months in Southern Pines and also at
Laurinburg, but has taken letters dimissory to Southern
Florida.

The Rev. Cvprian P. Willcox, since his ordination, has
been continuing with the Rev. Alfred R. Berkeley in the im-
portant field where he had, for some years prior to his ordi-
nation, been rendering most valuable assistance.

The Rev. James K. Satterwhite I put in charge of our
colored Mission in Winston, and he has also begun a most
promising work among the colored people of Greensboro.

The Rev. Robt. J. Johnson is doing good work in our
colored Mission at Durham, and hopes to establish also a
mission amons: the colored people of Henderson.

The Rev. R. Percy Eubanks has resigned St. Mark's,
Mecklenburo- County, and other work in the Convocation of
Charlotte, and has become assistant in the parish of Christ
Church, Raleigh, having special charge of St. Saviour's
Chapel and other important mission work.

74 Address of the Bishop.

The Rev. Winborn L. Mellichampe, though transferred to
the Diocese of Georgia, has not vet removed his family from
this Diocese, and with my consent, continues his monthly
service at Pittsboro; and gives also occasional services at
Elkin and at Germanton.

The important work left vacant at St. Andrew's, Greens-
boro, by the removal of the Rev. Mr. Guignard ; the missions
in Salisbury and in Rowan County, formerly cared for by
the Rev. Mr. Blackwelder, under the direction of Dr. Mur-
doch; and the work of the Rev. Fred. A. Fetter at Monroe
and in Union County ; still remain uncared for. I have
found it impossible so far to make any arrangement to sup-
ply adequate service in these and in some other parts of the
Diocese. On the whole, however, our parishes and missions
are well supplied, and the Clergy are doing faithful and
effective work.

I have received a communication from the executors of
the late Hon. AYm. P. Bynum, Sr., informing me that their
testator had left to the Diocese of North Carolina the sum
of four hundred dollars for disabled and needy Clergymen
of the Diocese, and two thousand dollars to be used in the
missionary work of the Diocese, ''including the visitation of
countj^ homes and jails." These legacies will be paid over
in the due course of the settlement of the estate, and I re-
spectfully suggest that the convention should advise the Trus-
tees of the Diocese as to the distribution and application of
the funds when received.

DIOCESAX MISSIONS.

The proper work of the church is its missionary work, the
extension of the Kingdom of God among men. The reports
of our Clergy and of our several missionary organizations
are before the Convention, and will afford some information
as to what is being done in and by this Diocese. That which
comes first into view, as lying nearest to us, is the work of our
own parishes and missions. You are to remember, however,
that this 3'ear our parochial reports cover only eleven
months — from April 30, 1909, to March 31, 1910. This
may cause some apparent falling off in results as compared
with former years — I do not know that it will, but this
possibility must be borne in mind, and its explanation. As
a matter of fact the work of the Diocese was never more

Diocese of Xoeth Cakoeixa, 1910. 75

vigorous, effective and hopeful than at this time. The num-
ber confirmed is considerable larger than I have ever reported
before, and very gi-eatly above the average. Our number
of Clergymen remains about the same, but there is a very
distinct increase in the average activity and efficiency of the
Clergy ; and I can not be mistaken in thinking that there
is a gTadual but very distinct advance in the general effi-
ciency of the lay sympathy and cooperation which the Clergy
receive in their work. Our Diocesan missionary work is
carried on under the immediate direction of our three Con-
vocations: The Convocation of Raleigh, the Convocation of
Charlotte, and the Colored Convocation, with their Arch-
deacons. Reports from these three Archdeacons will this
evening be laid before you. Within the last year or two
there has been a distinct advance in the interest our laymen
have taken in the work of these Convocations, and judged
by the financial test of the funds raised in the Convocations,
as compared with the funds formerly raised and disbursed
under the direction of the old Executive Missionary Com-
mittee of the Convention, our present system has thoroughly
justified itself.

Our stronger parishes lie naturally in our larger cities
and towns. That Avhich has especially characterized the
development of this State during the quarter of a century
last past, has been the wonderful gTowth of our towns by
the gatherin.g in of the poorer people of the country to work
in the factories established in and near these cities and
towns, and, in many cases, the building up of entirely new
towns around large factories established in the countrv.
Xaturally, therefore, the most inlportant work of the Church
has come to be its efforts for the benefit of these new com-
munities of working people. We have in the Diocese four-
teen churches and chapels erected in these commuuiti( s, and
five of our best and ablest Clergymen give themselves speci-
ally to this work, besides what is done by the rectors of many
of our parishes. In eight of these churches I have during'
the past year confirmed ninety-five persons — not much less
than one-fifth of the whole number confirmed during th(^
year, and ten of them reported last year over three hundred
communicants. There is no field of work more fruitful, or
more attractive to the man who loves to do good to his fel-
lows, and to be a real help to men in their lives. Of all thn

76 Addeess of the Bishop.

Clergy of this Diocese I specially love, and honor those who
so nobly and unselfishly give themselves to this work, refus-
ing calls to parishes where they might greatly advance their
personal advantages, and enjoy the comfort and ease which
their harder and poorer fields can not afford them. And
the same should be said of others of our younger Clerg}^.
The young man of ability who foregoes personal interest in
devotion to the work laid u]:)on him, is not only accomplish-
ing the good work he sees before him, but he is strengthening
the hold of the Church of Christ upon the hearts and minds
of men.

^^THE MEX'S MISSION' AEY M0VE:MEXT."

The most striking feature in the religious history of the
State of ^orth Carolina during the past year has been the
movement to enlist Christian men generally of all religious
bodies in the evangelizing of the w^orld. The most notable
event in this connection was the wonderful meeting at Greens-
boro January 12-14. I shall not undertake to describe its
proceedings. I am happy to know that many of you were
there and saw and heard for yourselves. It was indeed a
wonderful occasion, and illustrated and emphasized the
blessed possibilities of the '^Men's Missionary Movement."
Xo body of Christians in this State was better represented
than our own, whether on the platform or in the audience,
in proportion to our numbers. I am fully persuaded that
the Church in this Diocese has received much benefit from
this movement already, and may receive much more. It is
a distinct gain to have a common ground of sympathy and
cooperation with other Christian people about us, such as
the movement offers. Our missionary collections in some
quarters have sho^^m the effects of the interest aroused at
Greensboro — I am afraid, however, that we are in danger
of forgetting the good resolves w^e then made and registered.
Let me remind those who were at the Greensboro meeting,
and who in the sectional meeting in St. Barnabas's Church
Friday endeavored to voice the spirit of l^Torth Carolina
Churchmen, that we then pledged our people, so far as we
could do so, to double their offering to our Foreign Mission-
ary work during this current year. I trust that no one who
assented to that action at the time will suffer his own con-
gregation to fail of redeeming this pledge — and in endeavor-
ing to bring our whole Diocese up to that standard.

Diocese of Xorth Carolina, 1910. 77

But the financial Avork of this movement is not its best
possibility. Difficult and almost hopeless as the prospect
for Christian unity at times seems to be, I am firmly per-
suaded that it is our duty to pray for it, and to work for it,
and to desire it; and I believe that this movement mil be
instrumental in some de^-ee towards eifecting it in the end,
that it is a step in the right direction. And I do not say
this because it has brought us here in North Carolina to see
men on one platform, who had not before been thus visibly
at one. That kind of union has an element of menace to
ultimate and real unity, by its seeming to be what it is not.
What we saw at Greensboro in the work of that Convention
was a distinct recognition of disunion — though it was a dis-
union which is beginning to feel dissatisfied with itself.
Unity must be a gTOwth, it must be the effect of a vital pro-
cess in the whole body of Christian people. And perhaps
our divisions, and our inherited and crystalized forms and
habits of thought and feeling, disable us from seeing what
are the essential principles and the practical methods by
which Christians in the future shall gTOW into the oneness
for which our common Lord prayed. But if all Christians
in Christian lands can be aroused to a full sense of their cluty
to evano-elize the world, and if we give our Foreign Missions
the full measure of spiritual, moral and material support
which thev need for their work, then, in those new fields of
endeavor and of achievement, the Christian forces at work
for the conversion of the world shall draw together by the
vital power of love," and by the guidance of the spirit of life
shall discover for us the principles and the methods of unity.
And in the meantime our common interest in the work of
our missionaries shall insensibly draw us nearer together in
love and sympathy, and prepare us to learn of them how
we mav really come together in one. And so, wisely and
faithfully preserving our heritage of truth, we must be ready
to cooperate in all earnest efforts to extend the power of the
Gospel, knowing that in thus doing we are saving ourselves
as well as those for whom we labor.

DIOCESAX LAYMEN'S CONFEREXCE.

So manv matters demand attention at this time that a
very brief mention must suffice for the interesting and help-
ful meeting of our Laymen's Conference in Kaleigh Jan-

.78 Addkess of the Bishop.

iiary 24th and 25th. It had no immediate relation to the
preceding meeting in Greensboro, but was called in pur-
suance of a resolution of our last Diocesan Convention. The
attendance was most gratifying, both in numbers and in
character. Interesting addresses were made; and it was re-
solved to hold an adjourned meeting in connection with the
'^Conference" in St. Mary's School buildings June 20th to
25th. I trust that our Clergy and laity will appreciate the
efforts thus made for the development and strengthening of
the Church life of our Diocese, and that we may have a
large attendance in response to the most hospitable invitation
of the Rector and Trustees of St. Mary's School.

THE GEN^ERAL CONVEXTIOX OF 1910.

There are a number of proposed amendments to the Con-
stitution of the General Convention submitted to us at this
meeting that we may express our opinion upon them, should
we desire to do so. There is the proposed ''Preamble" to
the Constitution, the amendment in regard to the office of
Presiding Bishop, and the amendment allowing Suffragan
Bishops. I do not think it necessary that I should enter
upon any discussion of them. I will, however, say that the
proposed "Preamble" does not seem to have gTown in favor
during the three years since 1907, and there are manifest
inconveniences and dangers in introducing into our Consti-
tution matters not really necessary in such a document. The
proposed article concerning the office of Presiding Bishop
does seem to me important, and even necessary, and proved
to be so in our experience. I am also inclined to favor the
amendment providing for Suffragan Bishops, though it is
a question of much difficulty, where much may be said on
both sides. In so vast a country as ours, of such extensive
Dioceses, where such varieties of race and language are often
found under one Bishop, it does seem that Suffragan Bishops
might help to solve some of the practical difficulties of the
work, I do not. however, believe that this amendment will
specially affect the solution of the problems involved in our
colored work in the South. The Bishops of the South do
not desire Suffragan Bishops for the colored work, and the
colored people do not desire them. Por my own part I
adhere to the opinion that if any change be made, the
organization of our colored congregations into a missionary

Diocese of Xokth Cakolixa, 1910. 79

jurisdiction, as proposed by their own leading representa-
tives, will best meet the difficulties of the present situation,
and least embarrass our future action in meeting future
issues.

With this imperfect presentation of some of the more im-
jjortant features of our present situation, I leave these mat-
ters to your consideration, and to such action as you may
think best, where any action on your part is necessary.

The work here is very hopeful, and the church has a great oppor-

necessitate an outlay of a considerable sum of money. We have issued

hearty response from our Church people. Those interested in our w^o'rk
can not help in a more hopeful field. We are planning to build a

entirely remodeled the Church, turning it into a beautiful structure,
more in keeping with what a Church should be. We have also installed
a handsome pipe organ costing $2,300, have vested the choir, and mem-
bers of the congregation have placed many handsome memorials in the
Church, among them an altar, in memory of Rev. Chas. Fetter, erected
by the congregation as a tribute to a former Rector whom they deeply
loved. Also a handsome Reredos, Angel Lecturn, Pulpit, Communion
Rail, Processional Cross, and Eucharistic Candlesticks. And last, but
by no means least, a very handsome and comfortable Rectory has been
built, and is now occupied by the Rector and his family. In doing this,
the Trustee of the Jordan fund secured the consent of the court to use
the "Endowment" for this purpose, the congregation adding about
$1,700 to the "Endowment" fund, and agreeing to keep the property
fully insured. This is noted, to account for the absence of the item
'"Endowment" from this report.

this congregation has moved into a new church building, constructed of
Mt. Airy granite. Furniture from the old church was given to the
colored mission, with the exception of memorials. Contract has been
let for an organ to cost $2,450, to be installed June 15, 1910. The
Vestry has given an order for the drawing of the plans of a Rectory,

for substantial growth in a material way as well as spiritual.

Diocese of Xorth Caroeixa, 1910. 123

REPORT OF THE ARCHDEACOX OF THE CONVOCATION OF
CHARLOTTE.

To the Right Reverend Joseph B. Cheshire, D.D.,
Bishop of North Carolina:

During the past year I have conducted in whole or in part one hundred
and fifty-four public services, celebrated the Holy Communion or
assisted in the same seventy-eight times, baptized eight persons, and
conducted in whole or in part fourteen burial services. I have held
the usual Convocation and district meetings; attended the Missionary
Council in Montgomery, Alabama ; the Layman's Missionary Meeting in
Greensboro, and the Layman's Meeting or Conference in Raleigh; at-
tended an extra meeting of the Board of Managers of the Thompson
Orphanage and Training Institution, and visited the following places
in the Convocation, most of them several times, and holding services:
High Point, Thomasville, Wadesboro, Raleigh, Woodleaf, Rockingham,
Hamlet, Laurinburg, Laurel Hill, Mount Mourne, Davidson, Huntersville,
St. Mark's Church, Mecklenburg; ^Nlooresville, St. James' Church, Iredell
County; St. Andrew's Church and St. Mark's Church, Rowan County;
Cooleemee Cotton Mills and Cooleemee Plantation, Salisbury, Spencer,
St. Martin's, St. Andrew's, St. Peter's, Chapel of Hope, and Church of
the Holy Comforter, Charlotte; St. Michael's School, Charlotte; Reids-
ville, Leaksville, Spray, Germanton, Statesville, Mayodan and Mt. Airy.
I have special charge of Trinity Church, Statesville, holding services two
Sundays each month.

In reviewing the work of the past year I can but feel that, while all
has been done that lay within my power, yet the work has not pro-
gressed as satisfactorily throughout the Convocation as it should. The
lack of ministers in our missions and weak parishes has been ruinous
to a great extent. For instance, the following congregations have been
without regular services for almost the entire year, namely: Reidsville,
Mt. Airy, Rockingham, Hamlet, Laurinburg, St. James' in Iredell Coun-
ty, St, Matthew's, St. Jude's and St. Mary's, Rowan County. And now,
St. Mark's Church, Mecklenburg, and St. Mary's Church, High Point,
are vacant by the departure to other fields of the Rev. Messrs. Eubanks
and Guignard.

It is encouraging, however, and refreshing, to turn to those places
where ministers have been maintained and pastoral work has been done;
as in the work under the charge of the Rev. Messrs. Berkeley, Brown,
Eubanks, Fetter ( now deceased ) , Osborne and Thompson ; and I hope I
may be pardoned if I mention the work in Statesville. In all these
places the work has gone forward, the people have been encouraged, and
have come up to some measure of their duties as Churchmen; and the
Church has been fully justified in the effort that has been made to
support these missions.

124: Repokts of Abchdeacoxs.

Through the generous assistance of a few individuals supplementing
the apportionment funds, we have been able to support the ministers
actually in the field : but we have not been able to offer adequate sup-
port to induce men to engage to carry on the work in all the vacant
places. It is true there is a good balance in the treasury now, thanks
to the great generosity of a friend, whose name is withheld by request,
and with the prospect of receiving part of the generous legacy left us
by the late Hon. Wm. P. Bynum, whose noble benefactions for many
years have assisted in the support of our missions, ovir financial condi-
tion is more hopeful. And this fact should stimulate us all to greater
efforts; sureh' such examples of individual generosity as the Treasurer's
report displays can not fail to arouse in the hearts of our laymen a
more general spirit of liberality and enthusiasm than has generally
prevailed in the past. An abstract of the Treasurer's report is submit-
ted herewith. E. A. Osborne,

Archdeacon.

REPORT OF THE ARCHDEACON OF THE CONVOCATION OF

RALEIGH.

To the Rt. Rev. Jos. Blount Cheshire, D.D.,
Bishop of tsorth Carolina:
The siiin of my oflicial acts between the dates April 30, 1909, and
April 1, 1910, is as follows:

Places visited 46

Services, whole or in part 89

Sermons and addresses 104

Celebrations — Public 8

Private 1 9

Baptisms — Infants 3

Adults 4 7

Candidates for Confirmation presented 2

Marriages 1

Burials 2

During the year I have held series of services at Clayton, St. Saviour's,
Raleigh, Gulf and Sanford; at Clayton, assisted by Rev. Milton A.
Barber, and at Sanford, by Rev. Sidney S. Bost. At St. Saviour's I
preached, the services being taken by the Rector and his assistant.

Much of my time has been taken up in attending numerous conferences
and committee meetings; also in seeking interviews with many indi-
vidual Clergy and laymen relative to various concerns of the missionary
w^ork of the Convocation. I have visited not a few places to seek the
stray members of the Church and to get know^ledge of the situation in
those localities.

Since January, 1910, Rev. Sidney S. Bost, of Durham, has most will-
ingly undertaken to give at least monthly service on a w^eek day at
Holly Springs, and this he does without any hope of remuneration.

In the same month I held services for the first time at Wendell, a
new town on the N.-S. R. R., twenty miles east of Raleigh. While the
only members of our Church here were one man and his wife, yet so
earnest was their desire to plant the Church in their town, and so
hopeful seemed the chance of growth, that I have not failed to give one
Sunday a month to this new mission ever since. Within this time two
men, both of weight and experience, have been added to our membership
here by baptism, and one other, of like character, by removal.

For a part of the past year Sanford and Gulf were supplied with
regular services by the Rev. W. L. Mellichampe. These have been sup-
plemented by services of my ow^n. There are no places within the Con-
vocation where the call for regular ministrations is stronger than in
these. Salary for a minister could be raised, but so far a suitable man
has not been found. There is also within the Convocation a field of
work for another minister, and again there is more hope of raising the
salary than of findingf the man.

126 Reports of Abchdeacoxs.

There is evidence of quickened interest in our Diocesan missionary
work, among both clergy and laity, and that is hopeful: but there is a
depressing lack of men to do the work.

Respectfully submitted, X. C. Hughes,

Archdeacon.

REPORT OF THE ARCHDEACOX FOR WORK AMOXG COLORED

PEOPLE.

To the Rt. Rev. Joseph B. Cheshire, D.D.,
Bishop of 'North Carolina:

As Archdeacon for Colored Work in the Diocese of North Carolina, it
gives me special pleasure to present to you at this time, an epitome of
the work done for and by my people, as we have every reason to be truly
thankful to Almighty God for the general awakening of interest, as well
as the evidences of growth to be seen in various parts of the Diocese.

The following is a summary of my report, and embraces what has been
done during the Diocesan year:

Visits 61

Services in whole or part 136

Sermons and addresses 118

Celebrations of the Holy Communion 50

Baptisms 16

Marriages 1

Burials 2

Diocese of [N'orth Caeoltxa, 1910. 127

111 addition to this, I have condiicted mission services at Louisbiirg,
Satterwhite, Durham, Xoise and Winston-Salem, each of which histed
from three to five days, and the results of which, under the stimulating
effects of the Church's service, left impressions that could be seen as well
as felt.

Among the important services in wliicli it has been my privilege to
assist during the year, permit me to mention, first, the great help that
came to the brethren through the meetings of our Convocation, which
convened in St. Mark's Church, Wilson: secondly, the ordination of two
sons of St. Augustine's School, who have taken important stations in
our missionary work in the Diocese; and lastly, the dedication of St.
Agnes' Hospital, Raleigh, Under the providence of God, as builder, I
had been privileged to lay the first and last stones in the construction
of its walls.

During the year two new Missions have been organized — one at Rocky
Mount and another at Greensboro, under the care of the Rev. James K.
Satterwhite ; while a third, at Durham, has been revived and placed
under the care of the Rev. Robert J. Johnson. In our etforts for organi-
zation we have been dependent upon the co-operation and aid of the
rectors of the churches, and the willingness with which they have under-
taken the task of aiding and directing us has been gratifying to a sur-
prising degree.

A comparison of last year's report and the report of 1910 shows gain
in almost every instance. The exception is in the schools. In the com-
parison referred to above we have lost in our day schools, 8 teachers
and 336 students. You will at once observe that the loss of pupils has
been the result of the loss of teachers, and our loss of teachers is due
to the want of money to pay their salaries. Can we afford this?

Our Clergy and teachers are working heroically and without murmur-
ing on salaries that would in some instances surprise you; one of whom,
Mr. Joel T. Fuller, though a graduate of one of our best institutions of
learning, took charge of one of our remote mission stations, where he
labored for years until in the middle of last month he was called, we
trust, to his reward. In our efforts for the better we shall continue to
rely upon your liberality and counsel, and we pledge to you. as a result
of your sacrifices to us, abundant fruitage in return.

Respectfully submitted, H. B. Delaxy.

REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF ST. AUGUSTIXES SCHOOL.

St. Augustine's School has had 425 pupils during the past year.
There have been fewer pupils in the lower grades, more in the higher.
There will be over twenty graduates this year, a larger number than in
any previous year. Most of them will be from the Normal Department,
to which the School, encouraged and aided by the American Church
Institute for Negroes, has been able to pay more attention. A debt of
$3,500 has been incurred, largely for the introduction of city water for
fire protection, and for connection with the city sewer.

St. Agnes' Hospital, largely built by our own students under the
direction of our own students, has been completed at a cost of about
$30,000, not reckoning the value of the student labor. There is only
about $1,000 needed to place it out of debt. Mrs. Hunter is now en-
deavoring to endow each day of the year with $250. Several days have
already been endowed. The Hospital was formally dedicated last May,
opened in June, and has ever since been doing its beneficent work.
