The annual convocation of the Indians of the Episcopal Church in South Dakota, held on Antelope Creek, on the Rosebud Reservation west of Cham- berlain, in 1915, was one of the largest and most notable gatherings of the Indians in recent years. Dr. George Biller, of Sioux Falls, Episcopal Bishop of South Dakota, and other leading churchmen and laymen, were present and had charge of the ceremonies. Other able speakers were present. There were approximately two thousand five hundred Sioux Indians present and about one hundred whites. Assisting Bishop Biller were about twenty Indian and fifteen white clergymen. The services were held in a large booth constructed for the purpose and having a seating capacity of 2,000 people. At the opening ceremonies, memorial services in honor of the late Rev. H. Burt, a veteran missionary of the church, was held. He had been a missionary among the Sioux Indians for a period of about forty- three years. At this convocation the status of the Indian and his future welfare both on earth and hereafter were duly considered. The annual meeting of the women's auxiliary was likewise held, and there were present Indian women who came as far as two hundred and fifty miles to be present and participate in the exercises. It was planned to hold similar conferences annually thereafter. Full provision for ministerial services throughout the reservation were made at this conference.
The Reformed Church in South Dakota was represented as early as the '70s. A number of persons came directly from the Netherlands and parts of Germany and settled in Northwestern Iowa, South and North Dakota, Kansas, Nebraska and portions of Minnesota. Organizations were not effected, how- ever, until early in the '8os. In 1883 the Church of Harrison was organized by the Illinois Classis of the First Reformed Church, in June, 1883, with forty-five members in full communion. Their first pastor was Abram Stegeman who served until 1892, when he was succeeded by A. G. Ziegler, who served until 1900. This church lost many members during the drouth in the early 'gos, but in 1904 had about eighty families connected therewith. The Livingston Memorial Church of the Reformed denomination was organized at Sioux Falls in 1883. Their first pastor was Rev. E. P. Livingston, who died after two years and was succeeded by Rev. W. J. Skillman. Other able pastors have served this con- gregation. The Lennox Reformed Church, about six miles from the town of Chancellor, was established in 1883, under the auspices of the Classis of Illi- nois. The people of this organized are mostly East Priesians. They came to

their present location in Lincoln County at an early date. Their first pastor was Weiland, who served until 1885. Other pastors were Hollenbeck, Water- mulder, Jansen and Haken. In 1904 a separate congregation was organized at Chancellor, about thirty-five or forty families belonging to this organization. The Sanham Memorial Church of the Reformed denomination was organized at Marion in 1883. The first pastor was Reverend Harmelink. He was followed by Reverends Reeverts, Winter and others. Thirty-five or forty families belonged to this organization. In 1884 the Reformed Church at Charles Mix was organ- ized. This vicinity was mostly settled by Hollanders early in the 'Sos. Their first missionary in this field was Rev. F. J. Zwemer, who had been assigned to the churches of Dakota Territory. There were two distinct organizations here, one at Castalia, and the other at Platte. Mr. Zwemer became their pastor in 1885 and served until 1892. After that Rev. B. Holema served until 1902. In the latter year the Old Platte Church was sold and the Castalia Church was moved to the town of Platte, where both congregations were united. About twenty-five families belonged to this organization.
In 1884 the Salem Reformed Church in McCook County was organized. The first pastor was Reverend Mr. Cotton, who served until 1887. Other pastors were Mr. Zwemer, Mr. Barney and Mr. Christ. Twenty-five or thirty families belonged to this organization. The Monroe Reformed Church of the German race was established in 1885, and twenty years later had as members about thirty- five or forty families. One of their prominent pastors was Rev. D. Siemsen. The Lennox Second Reformed Church was organized at the junction of the two railways in 1889. Their first pastor was Rev. J. H. Schoon, who served until 1895. Reverend Mr. Watermulder served for two years. Their membership numbered about sixty families. In 1888 Emmanuel Reformed Church was organ- ized at Perkins, near Springfield, under the pastorate of Reverend Mr. Zwemer. He served until 1889 and was succeeded by Mr. Heemstra and he was succeeded by Rev. William Stegeman. The services are conducted in both the Dutch and English languages. In 1885 a Reformed Church was established at Grand- view, in Douglas County, by Reverend Zwemer, who served as missionary pastor until 1889. He was succeeded by Rev. William Pool, William Stegeman and others. About this time the church was destroyed by a tornado. The new church was erected in 1896. Reverend Mr. Harmelink served this organization for some time. Later came Reverend Mr. Brimmel. In 1890 the Delaware Church, near Davis, Turner County, was established, and was first served by Reverend Mr. Schoon. He was succeeded by Rev. Henry Teichrieb, and he by Reverend Mr. Koerlin. This church was leveled to the ground in 1902, but was rebuilt the same year. In 1893 the Ebenezer Reformed Church, near Scotland, was organized by Reverend Mr. Harmelink. This congregation was later served by Reverends DeWitz and Koerlin. Twenty-five or thirty families assembled here to worship. In 1896 Bethel Reformed Church, at Davis, Turner County, was organized among the East Friesian people. The first pastor was Rev. Henry Teichrieb. Later they were served by Reverend Mr. Koerlin. About 1900 a church of the German people was established near Watertown, and at first con- sisted of about twelve families, who were served by Rev. E. Aeilts of Sioux Falls. In 1902 the Volga Reformed Church, with about fifteen families, was established in Miner County. Two years before that date the Worthing Reformed

Church, a branch of the Second Lennox Church, was established, with about fifteen families. Reverend Mr. Schoon was their stated supply. In 1903 the Chancellor Reformed Church was organized from people who formerly belonged to the First Lennox Reformed Church. They numbered at first about twenty- five or thirty families, and were served by Rev. G. Haken. Their church build- ing was erected in 1903.
In 1906 there were in the state nineteen organizations of the Reformed Church in America, with 847 members, 16 houses of worship, 13 parsonages, 17 Sunday schools and 1,105 scholars.

of the state. Persons of German ancestry form 22.4 per cent of the South Dakota population, outranking all other foreign nationalities. In the following compila- tion on ancestry there is a distinction from nativity. Many of the so-called Rus- sians in South Dakota, for instance, are of German ancestry and hold German sympathies, though of Russian birth. Those of Norwegian ancestry rank second in South Dakota; third, English; fourth, Irish; fifth, Swedish; sixth, Danish.
