ALPHABETICAL LIST
Of Persons who HAVE BEEN Members of the South Church, but are not not so January 1, 1865.
NOTE .- The figures which immediately precede the name, denote the year of admission. If the month is wanted, see General List, under the year mentioned. The day of the month can be ascertained by referring to an Almanac, as no persons are admitted except at Communions, and these are always held on the first Sabbath of the month.
The figures opposite the name, on the right, show the date of dismission; the middle column, the mode of dismission, or place of removal, or both.
The letter (g) immediately before the date of dismission, denotes that the person so designated was dismissed by general certificate ; the letter (I), that he left this Church without asking or receiving a certificate from us.
Those removed by death, are marked with a * immediately preceding the date when they ceased to be members ; those by discipline, with a (d) ; those without any letter or mark immediately preceding such date, were dismissed by certificate to some par- ticular church or churches.

" WHEREAS, we are credibly informed that Amos Smith, and Maria, his wife, Edward Coe, and Louisa A., his wife, Leicester Carrington, and Emily, his wife, Minot A. But- ricks, and Charlotte A., his wife, Joseph H. Smith, and Hannah, his wife, William C. Scobie, and Amelia, his wife, John Wilkinson, and Elizabeth, his wife, Andrew B. Moffat; Margaret, Catharine, Mary and Sarah Mof- fat; Gilbert F. Moore, Jennette Eddy, Catharine C. Jones, Caroline W. Burwell, Robert Dyas, and Seth Gil- lette, whose names stand on our books as members of this Church, have united with other churches, without asking letters of dismission from us, as was required by one of our Standing Rules, to which they were parties,
" Resolved, That notwithstanding the irregularity of their course in this particular, we accept it as at least an expression of their desire to be released from their connec- tion with this Church, and that accordingly our Clerk be directed to enter their names on our Records as dismissed members from this date, (November 22, 1864,) in the same sense as if they had asked and received from us letters of dismission and recommendation, in the usual form."

ADMISSIONS AND DISMISSIONS.
than the number of persons dismissed. But in this table, as well as in the General List, it is necessary to follow these changes, in order to show the gain or loss of members in each year, and the number remaining at the close of each year. In the Alphabetical Lists no name is inserted more than once.
Mr. Carroll commenced his labors as Stated Supply on the 1st of June, 1862. During the 31 months which have since elapsed, to 1st of January, 1865, there have been admitted into this church by profession 51 members, by certificate 19,-total 70; which is only 23 less than the number of dismissions within the same period, including two by discipline and four by death. Considering the ex- traordinary efforts which have been made by disaffected persons within our own church, and by terrorism, Ex-parte Councils, and other appliances without, to draw or drive away our members,-indeed to destroy us altogether,-the result is a signal triumph. As these elements of mischief are now in a great measure exhausted, it is reasonable to anticipate, from this time forward, with the blessing of God, a rapid increase of members, proportionate to the large increase of our congregations. It is also worthy of remark that our net loss of members (23) in the 31 months of Mr. Carroll's ministry among us, is eleven less than our net loss (34) during the seventeen months immediately preceding. On the whole, we have much to be thankful for in the past, and more to hope for in the future. The faithful preaching of the Word, which the South Church enjoys in an eminent degree, is sure to yield its legitimate fruits.
