Collection for this Month.—By the Synod’s appointment the Collection for the Fund of Aged and Infirm Ministers,
Ministers’ Widows and Orphans, is to be taken up during the month of June.
The Church Courts.—By the time this issue is in the hands of most of our readers the Church Courts will have risen. We hope, as in former years, to give a brief review of the proceedings of these Courts in a later issue. As our own Synod was in session when the Magazine went to press we are unable to give even a brief summary of the proceedings, but a full report will (D.V.) appear in our July issue.
Church’s Deputies to U.S.A. and Canada.—The Rev. William Grant landed safely at New York on 2nd May and by the time this Magazine will have reached our Canadian subscribers he will be in Winnipeg. Mr. Grant will (D.V.) give due intimation to the various places at which he is to preach. The Rev. Finlay Macleod reached Scotland on Monday, 12th May. His report of his visit to our Canadian Mission stations will be awaited with interest.
