CENTRAL TEXAS CONFERENCE JOURNAL
SUPERANNUATE HOMES.
It is with profound regret that we record the fact that the
voice of Bro. C. E. Brown, which has so earnestly pleaded for
the Superannuate Homes work since its organization eight years
ago, has been silenced forever. We wish to record our appre-
ciation of his efficiency and faithfulness in this great work.
His death makes a vacancy in this Board, and the Presiding
Elders, in conformity to the constitution of the Board, have
nominated S. J. Vaughan to fill the vacancy and we request you
to confirm the same.
At the time of Bro. Brown's death, he was preparing a brief
history of each Home to be placed upon our records, and
printed in the Journal of the Conference. We regret that he
was not able to complete this work. We therefore earnestly
request the occupants of these Homes to send to our Secretary,
W. B. Andrews, a brief statement of the history of their Homes,
Just at this time there is urgent need for several new Homes,
and we earnestly request the Presiding Elders and Pastors to
open the way in their charge for the prosecution of this work
in order that these homeless ones may be provided with shelter.
We recommend that the Bishop appoint D. L. Collie to the
agency for Superannuate Homes.
J. A. WHITEHURST, President.
W. B. ANDREWS, Secretary.
