J. M. G. SAPPENFIELD, LUTHER HOGSHEAD.


The report was received and adopted.


Resolved, That the President of Synod be authorized to give notice in the church papers of the withdrawal of Mr. C. K. Drumheller from the Chicago Synod and the Lutheran Ministry.


Report of Committee on Benevolence.


Your Committee held a public service on Thursday evening devoted to the subject of charitable work. The address was made by Rev. A. D. Crile, of Chicago. The offering was $8.40. We recommend that this offering be given to the Passavant Memorial Hospital of Chicago, Mrs. L. B. Waters, Superintendent.


Once more we would call attention to the needs of this institu- tion of mercy within our own bounds which may rightfully claim our charities. We would therefore respectfully request that each Pastor call the attention of his congregation to the necessity of making a donation to this institution on the coming Thanksgiving Day or at any other convenient time.


The Committee notes with pleasure the presence of Sister Mary E. Bowman, Superintendent of the Passavant Memorial Hospital, Jacksonville, Illinois. The Committee commends this institution to the prayerful consideration of all congregations of Synod.

Report of Committee on Treasurer's Report.


We your Committee find it impossible to make a final report of the condition of the Synodical treasury at this time, on account of the Treasurer's long sickness. We therefore recommend that the accounts be referred back to the Treasurer and Secretary of Synod and upon completion of their work that the report be re- ferred to an auditing committee consisting of Messrs. Charles C.


-26-


Curtis, August Steiner and William J. Dozer, of Anderson, and that their report be printed in this year's minutes.

SEVENTH SESSION.


Monday, September 26, 1898, 1:30 p. m.


The devotional services were conducted by Rev. J. M. G. Sappenfield. The report of the Committee on re-


-27-


districting the charges was taken up and adopted item by item.


Resolved, That this Synod shall not support any mis- sion which does not use the General Council literature throughout.


Report of Delegation to General Council.


The Twenty-sixth Convention of the General Council was held in St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Erie, Pa., from October 14, to October 19. The delegates elected by the Chicago Synod were all present. The Convention began with the recep- tion of the Holy Supper by the pastors and clergymen in attend- ance. The President is "sui generis" in the chair and under his soft touch and gentle speech all the proceedings were without friction. -


Much important business was transacted, part of which will require the attention of this body.


1. HOME MISSIONS. The financial condition although dis- tressing is far from being discouraging. The treasurer has re- ceived in the past two years, $26,351.26. Of the Board's twenty- two English Missions, three have become self-sustaining. The German Board sustains nine missions with twenty-five churches and preaching places, which with other congregations have organ- ized the Manitoba Synod. The whole number of missions sup- ported by the Synods of the General Council is 336. We would most respectfully call your attention to the following resolutions submitted by the Board:


Resolved, 1. That we express our high appreciation of the services rendered by mission and other societies in gathering funds for this work and appeal for their hearty co-operation dur- ing the biennium upon which we have just entered.


Resolved, 2. That in view of the distressing state of the Board's finances which cripples the work already begun as well as stands in the way of taking up new work, we earnestly urge upon our people everywhere the necessity of liberal and more frequent offerings, so that every dollar of debt may be wiped out and we spend our income directly upon the work in hand and not absorb one cent of it in the payment of interest.


Resolved. 3. That the various Synods be asked to assume the following apportionments for each of the next two years:


-28-


Ministerium of Pennsylvania. $10,000


Pittsburgh Synod. 4,500


Ministerium of New York 2,000


District Synod of Ohio. 2,000


Chicago Synod. 1,000


Synod of the Northwest. 500


And further that each Synod be requested to apportion the amount assigned, to its several congregations and urge its complete and - speedy payment.


Resolved, 4. That we hereby petition all congregations to set aside the Sunday nearest Reformation Day in particular for ; gathering an offering for this work, through Sunday school and congregation and that all such offerings be promptly placed in the hands of the treasurer.


Resolved, 5. That in reference to placing the English Mis- sions of our Church under one general board, the several Synods constituting the General Council be earnestly urged to put into operation as speedily as possible that which they have so unani- mously acknowledged as correct in principle.


2. FOREIGN MISSIONS. The receipts of two years for Foreign Missions were $40,606.25. This Board maintains seven mission- aries and their wives, three Zenana sisters, one native pastor, two evangelists, two catechists, 138 teachers, seven stations, 113 schools in villages, and 191 preaching places in villages. There are over 5,000 Christians at these stations and nearly 3,000 chil- dren in the schools. Our Woman's Missionary Societies have greatly helped in this noble work by their collections and by the Christmas boxes sent for the children at the various mission points.


We would call your attention to the following recommenda- tions presented by the Board:


Resolved, 1. That in view of the demands of the Foreign Mis- sion work in India, the General Council determine to raise $50,- 000 a year for the next two years.


Resolved, 2. That the District Synods be urged by the General Council to impress upon their pastors the absolute necessity of such a voluntary offering for this cause as will in the aggregate make up this amount, and that the presidents of the Synods be in- structed to lay the matter before their respective Synods.


3. SUNDAY SCHOOL WORK. The report of the Committee on Sunday School Work was one of the centers of interest and warm debate. The Committee deserved and received hearty commenda-


-- 29-


tion for the zeal and indefatigable effort through which it ad- vanced its work to the point needed for successful supply. Never has Sunday school work been taken so seriously by the General Council and never before has its authority in matters of teaching been recognized by so large a number of its Sunday schools. The quarterlies, charts and lesson books issued by our Board, head the list of such publications by any board in the land. A resolu- tion was passed looking out even more widely among other Luther- an bodies, desirous of having a series of Lutheran lessons. And what greater factor of unity could there be than such an adoption of a common Sunday school apparatus as well as a common service.


4. JEWISH MISSIONS. Missions among the Jews were dis- cussed and the initiative steps taken toward the prosecution of evangelistic labors among them. especially in the great cities of our land. The Council adopted the following resolution:


Resolved, That the General Council recognizes the good work done by the Jewish Mission in Chicago and recommends that the different Synods urge their pastors to preach on this important subject in all their churches, commend it to the prayers of their people and take up offerings for the Chicago Mission.


We would most respectfully refer Synod to two resolutions adopted by the General Council which demand attention:


1. Resolved, That the morning sessions of the Council be opened with the use of the Matin service and that this practice be commended to the Synods also.


2. Resolved, That the General Council request the District Synods to bring the subject of church extension before the Synod at the public services.


This meeting of the General Council will be remembered in some respects as unique. Its sessions were characterized through- out by harmony of action. While there was an abundance of divergent views in the discussions, nearly all resolutions were carried without a dissenting voice; although representing three distinct national tendencies, there were no sores left to wash, no wounds to heal. The lovers of the English, the German, and the Swedish are one in their love for a strong united church in this country whatever seeming clashing of interests there may yet be. This harmony does not rest on mere sentiment, it rests on true unity of faith. There is not another general body that represents so great a variety of church life and practice, which is at heart more thoroughly one, and here lies its strength, so that its future is


-30-


big with hope. Its responsibilities we know. What its trials may be we know not. It is enough to know that He who is the Church's Head and Guardian has promised to be with her even - unto the end of the world.


Respectfully submitted,


H. L. McMURRAY, G. H. GERBERDING, M. L. DECK.


The report was received and adopted.

We your Committee on Absentees have received letters stating reasons for absence from this Convention from the following mem- bers: Drs. Weidner, Sadtler, Stirewalt and Wagenhals, Revs. D. L. Reese, C. Koerner, and A E, Gift. We recommend that these brethren be excused.

RESOLVED, 2, That we have noticed with much gratification the interest manifested in the sessions of Synod as shown by the large attendances both during the day and in the evening.

Report of Committee on the Establishment of an Educational Institution.


We your committee appointed last year to confer with Mrs. Dieckmann concerning her generous offer reported last year, would respectfully report that we have discharged our duty, and would inform Synod that the generous offer is still open. Mrs. Dieckman fully appreciates the Synod's inability to accept her offer at this time.


In view of the fact that there has been a deep interest de- veloped in certain quarters of our Synod in the establishment of an educational institution in our bounds, we would respectfully recommend that a Committee on Educational Institution be ap- pointed to agitate this question further.


M. L. WAGNER, AUSTIN D. CRILE.


The report was received and adopted, and the Com- mittee continued.


It was decided to have two thousand copies of the minutes printed for distribution.


Report of the Committee on Parochial Reports and Apportionments.


I. RECOMMENDATIONS.


We your Committee on Parochial Reports and Apportionments would respectfully submit the following resolution for the guid- ance of the committee and to expedite its work.


Resolved, 1. That the apportionments this year be made on the basis of forty cents per member, the committee reserving the the right to discriminate in cases of the Missions only.


2. That, although the General Council's Board of Home Missions has apportioned this Synod $1,000 as its quota of the Board's work, and although we recognize this as the measure of our duty, yet in view of the pressing local needs in our bounds, we agree to pay into the Board's treasury this year, the sum of $600.


(The table of Apportionments and Parochial Reports will be found appended to these minutes.)


NOTES.


1. Synod made no appropriation from its treasury this year. for Foreign Missions. Hence no apportionment is made for that


-32-


object. But the Synod earnestly requests its congregations to con- tribute liberally to Foreign Missions, in addition to their appor- tionment.


2. The basis of this apportionment is, Home Missions, 26 cents; Education, 10 cents, and Synodical Expenses, 4 cents per member. In the cases of the missions, a less amount is appor- tioned.


3. The ensuing synodical year extends from September 1, 1898, to May 1, 1899, a period of eight months. Two-thirds of th : total apportionment is the minimum amount to be paid this year.
