Excerpt from Parochial Mission Women: A Paper, Read at the Church Congress, Manchester, October 15th, 1863First, as forming part of the parochial system, a Mission is established only upon the application of the Incumbent. He selects the Mission-woman and the Lady Superintendent. The Mission-woman is not a Scripture reader, nor a teacher of reli gions doctrines, but through her agency, and that of the Lady Superintendent, the pastor is informed Of the spiritual neces sities of all who are brought within the sphere of their in¿u ence. They are instructed to refer to him alone in all such cases. The arrangement may be terminated by a month's notice on either side, viz., by the Lady-managers of the society, or by the Incumbent, so that the possibility of collision with the Incumbent, or interference with his office, is effectually prevented.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
