APPENDIX
C.
Tin:
Ladies'
IIomk
Missionary
Society.
This flourishin«j and popuhir Societv
has hccoine so well known,
and
its various interests are nou'so well understood and appreciated,
that little besides a synopsis of the last Report need be appended.
Fourteen boxes of clothinn- and hous(3iiold jirticU^s have been dis-
tributed arnonif eleven Home Missionary families.
Including; cash
donations which have accompanied these,
the estimated value thus
disbursed has amounted to s:]! MJl.liO.
Add to this, three Commun-
ion sets, and part of another, Sabbath School Libraries, Hymn and
other valuable books, and the donations of this Society for the past
year may be stated at .^4r)00,
while the value of " o;oods and
gar-
ments" remaining on himd, is somewhat larger than that with which
they commenced the
year.
Tliese
valuable
results
have been at-
tained by an outlay
in casii
ot' sl/^J/.I'^.
The donations of ready made garments,
valuable even
wb.en
a
little
worn, enable the mana<2'ers so to economise their cash funds,
that,
with the work done by the
Society, they become abl^j to ex-
tend their care for those fimili'^s beyond the sup})ly
ot' their merely
physical wants, and by the addition of well-selected books
for the
Pastor and his fimily, they give to
liis studies the etficient
aid and
to them the mental
culture which they eagerly crave.
Communion
s(;ts, Sundav Siwiool Libnines ami Hymn Books, are
also found to be such valu.ible
accessions m the work of fostering
feeble Churches,
that this
Society will continue to alibrd these de-
sirable aids,
accord inix
•'^^ the Lord
siiall prosj)er them

the
future beneticence of the Congregation whose almoners they are.
