Excerpt from Alliance of the Reformed Churches Holding the Presbyterian System: Proceedings of the Fifth General Council Toronto, 1892Entertainment Committee, to Mr. Lee, who so kindly met the delegates every forenoon in the Pavilion, and to the Rev. William Burns, who was in general charge, but more especially concerned about the railway arrangements. No one could adequately express the thanks due to Dr. Caven and Wm. Mortimer Clark and Hamilton Cassells, Esqs.The meetings were held in Cooke's Church, which holds some people, and day after day and night after night that vast building was crowded to its utmost capacity. On two occasions, indeed, the Committee had to provide for Over-flow meetings, one on the Missionary evening, and the other on the evening of September 29th. On both these occasions the capacious Knox Church was also crowded to the doors, the same speakers addressing both meetings.As is well known, the Alliance is a federation of kindred Churches organised to manifest their oneness in Christ, to pro mote brotherly affection, and to co - operate in matters of common interest. Its organ is the Council, and the work of this latter has, therefore, ever to be simply along the lines just mentioned. In view of this, the meeting in Toronto marks a new stage in the history of the Alliance.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
