About seven societies were represented by delegates, and twenty-three by letters. They met at the invitation of the Hartford association, for prayer and conference concerning their work. These societies, the oldest of which was the Ladies' Christian Union of New York had been formed independently in different Cities, and had been called forth by some Chris tian or philanthropic work needed in their own community, in some cases for women, some times for other classes.
