Book excerpt: Excerpt from Minutes of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America: From A. D. 1838 to A. D. 1858, Inclusive This volume of the Minutes of the General Assembly is published under the following authorization: The General Assembly (Minutes, 1884, p. 121) appointed "The Stated and Permanent Clerks a Committee to report to the next General Assembly upon the advisability of reprinting any or all of the Minutes of the General Assembly between the years 1836 and 1869, said Committee to serve without expense to the Assembly." The Committee reported progress (Minutes, 1885, p. 684), recommending, inter alia, "that the expense of this republication be borne by the Board of Publication, and that the number of copies to be issued be left to the judgment of the Committee to be appointed to take charge of the matter." The report was adopted, and the Assembly directed that the Stated and Permanent Clerks be the Committee to have charge of the printing of said Minutes. The Committee was continued by the several Assemblies from 1886 to 1893. The plan of publication adopted is the following: The Minutes for 1836 and 1837 have been added to the volume already published, covering the period from 1821 to 1835, thus making complete the Minutes of the supreme judicatories of the Church from 1705 to 1837, the year preceding the division; the Minutes of the Old School General Assembly from 1838 to 1869 have been published in four volumes, and the Minutes of the New School General Assembly, for the same period, in two volumes, thus completing the republication of the Minutes from 1705 to 1869. This is the first volume of the New School Minutes. Acknowledgment is hereby made of the cordial co-operation and efficient service, rendered in the whole undertaking by the Officers of and the Board of Publication and Sabbath-School Work.
