The largest attendance at any Vestry Meeting was 61, the
smallest 29, and the average about 40.
In addition to the meetings at the Vestry Hall, however, there
have been many subjects of more than local interest which have
been the subject of conferences with other Boards, and, as will
be seen hereafter, the Vestry have appointed delegates to
represent their views, and have every reason to believe that the
result of such conferences have proved most useful.
The Vestry have to chronicle the death of Mr. Theodore
Moore, who had been a resident in the Parish and an active
member of the Vestry for a great number of years.

Resignations.
Messrs. H. E. Swaffer and A. Lloyd, two of the members of
the Vestry also sent in their resignations.
During the year Mr. George Dutton, the Treasurer to the
Vestry resigned his office, and Mr. Charles Fisher, the Manager
