A local Society, established by Jameson, had already been in existence two years inOakland.

It was thought by pastors and ladiespresent on this occasion, that the interest of Foreign Missionswould be further promoted by forming a Society on the Coast, aswe were as far removed from the Society of the West, as they were,from the Society that had its centre in Boston. A meeting was called the following week for the purpose ofdrawing up a Constitution and By-Laws, and nominating day appointed being rainy, only three were present, Mrs. C. , Mrs. F. M.
