The influence of the individual must be followed by the influence of the society." Bishop Potter of New York followed in his usual happy vein.
Then came the eloquent Bishop of Kyoto, Right Rev.Dr.Sidney C.Partridge, and after him Burton Mansfield, representing the laity, who spoke about "Re-quickened Faith as necessary to all." During the last week of the Convention there were some special reunions of colleges and theological seminaries.
Among the most interesting of these, that of the Philadelphia Divinity School, with Bishop Whitaker presiding, may be mentioned, and also that of St. Stephen's College, Annandale, with its first Warden, Bishop Seymour, at the head of the table.
Bishop Dudley honoured the gathering of alumni at this banquet, in the Occidental Hotel, with his presence, and Warden Lawrence T.Cole was a prominent figure. The Convention attracted to San Francisco several well-known clergymen who, although not deputies, were nevertheless deeply interested listeners, in the galleries and on the floor of the House, during the sessions, and were also participants in services and missionary gatherings.
Among these was the Rev.Dr.Lawrence T.Cole, the energetic Warden of St.Stephen's College, Annandale, N.Y., of whom we have already spoken.
