CENTRAL TEXAS CONFERENCE JOURNAL.
have received from the Conference Teller $7,991.14, making a total of
$9,083.64. We add to this total sum the following amounts received by us,
viz.: From Brother L. Blaylock, publisher of our Texas Christian Advocate,
$194.60; our pro rata of the reserve fund left over from last year, $249.57;
our pro rata of the Trapp Fund, $147.47; our pro rata of the Marquis Fund,
$178.67, and our pro rata of the Superannuate Endowment Fund, $184.25,
making a grand total -of $10,038.20 for distribution among our claimants.
We again wish to thank Brother Blaylock for his kind and most generous
donation to our superannuates of the aforesaid sum.
We estimate the amount necessary for Conference claimants the coming
year at $12,500.
At the beginning of another quadrennium vwe again recommend that a
reserve fund be left with our Treasurer of not less than five per cent of the
total sum for distribution, to be known as a "Reserve Fund," for the relief
of those who may become claimants during the year, and who are not other-
wise provided for, to be paid on the order of the presiding elder within whose
bounds such claimant may reside, and not over fifty dollars to any one claim-
ant during the year.
Some of our claimants, being sufficiently supplied with the necessities of
life, most generously ask no appropriation from us, but yield their claims to
those in need, and to all of these brethren and sisters we extend our thanks,
and pray that God may continue to bless them.
We have received $14 from the "Calvin Bequest," and which we have
apportioned to the widows and orphans of our deceased traveling preachers.
All assessments coming before us, we have pro rated to the several Pre-
siding Elders' Districts of the Conference as per the scale furnished us by
the presiding elders.
We recommend that the Board of Missions be assessed $185; Board of
Church Extension, $80; Board of Education, $85; Sunday School Board, $30,
and Board of American Bible Society, $20, for the purpose of paying for
printing the Conference Journal.
After prayerful and mature deliberation and a most painstaking investiga-
tion into the facts of each and every case, we have disbursed the super-
annuate collections to claimants as follows:
