Visiting Committee to Shenandoah Institute (p. 18). We, your committee, visited Shenandoah
Institute during commencement week, ending June 7, 1893, and were present at the examination of
classes, in which the students manifested a commendable progress and proficiency in the branches
taught. We found the premises in good condition and certainly find great pleasure in commending the
work done by this School in the past year; therefore, be it Resolved, That we, as members of this
Conference, gladly foster this Church School in our midst, and that we manifest our allegiance to the
same by recommending it to those with whom we come in contact and will use due diligence to collect
all assessments made by the finance committee for this important institution. S. L. Rice and P. J.
Lawrence.
