Resolution Of Appreciation


RESOLVED, That the thanks of the Convention be tendered to the citizens of Montgomery for their very kind and cordial hospitalities.

RESOLVED, That the thanks of this Convention are due and are hereby tendered to the Montgomery and West Point, Seaboard and Roanoke, Petersburg and Weldon, South Carolina and other railroads, and Chesapeake Bay Steamers, which have permitted the delegates of this body to pass over their respective roads at reduced fare, and that the Secretaries inform the Presidents of the companies of the action hereupon.

RESOLVED, That the thanks of this Convention be tendered to the publishers of the daily papers, for their kindness in publishing the proceedings of the Convention.

RESOLVED, That this Convention appreciate the courtesy of our brethren of other denominations, who have kindly tendered to the Convention the use of their houses of worship, and that this Convention accept their kindness.

RESOLVED, That this Convention would with pleasure accept the invitation to attend the Sunday School celebrations at the Methodist church, but for the fact that the hour designated conflicts with the meeting of the Southern Baptist Publication Society, and we assure the Superintendent of the Methodist Sunday School that we appreciate the courtesy tendered, and that the business of the Convention, which cannot without much inconvenience be dispensed with, impels us to decline its acceptance.
