NOTICE.


As this is the first attempt to publish an entire list of Members of the Church, it would not be surprising should there be found both omissions and mistakes ; though special care has been taken, and much labor expended, in the preparation of the Catalogue.


Any errors that may be found, if reported to the Pastor or Officers of the Church, can be corrected in a future edition.


Swift, Susan
