RULING ELDERS.
The records of Presbytery for the first twenty years of its ex- istence contain the names of 183 ruling elders as present, but without naming the churches to which they severally belonged. In the case of many of them, there had been frequent attend- ance at the meetings of Ohio Presbytery. Others continued to attend in Presbytery of Washington long after the expiration of this period of twenty years. We give the whole list, arranged according to the year of first enrollment in the Presbytery of Washington. The figures appended to the names show how often each elder was present within the period named.
