Worse than this, the limited a ipeud is irregularly And un certainly paid; The reports show a great want of,purictuallityin the payment Of the salary, to the,etabarrassment -of the minister, and the 'great discredit of religion. The coMmittee believe that this subject ought to be laid before 'the churches in great plainness. Two of the fourteen churejoes, are entitled to the credit of making 'their pay ments.proMptly. ': . The coMmittee' . are of opinion thiii, the :churches d( I ) not understand how important to themselves it is that their pastors should 'be relievedlfroin all anxiety on the: subject• of their pecuniary. affairs, and enabled to devote'. their whole powerii of mind to their great work. Certainly !the Churches Ought not by their own . failure to hinder the work, which ;'God has laid upon the ministry, and which they are ill able to . perform with a mind per -.-plexed.and harrassed by the embarrasments• incident to the straitened . circumstances in „which many are placed.. . • . - ...
