Excerpt from Report of the Second Meeting of the National Conference of Unitarian and Other Christian Churches, Held in Syracuse, N. Y., October 10-11, 1866: Together With the Constitution and by-Laws of the Conference and a List of the Delegates It is the full conviction of the Council, that the National Con ference should employ its present meeting in devising and recom mending a plan of local organization and church-life, based upon the suggestions which are here made, not so much in their own wisdom as under a providential compulsion. They beg leave, therefore, to conclude this Report with asking permission to introduce at a proper time a resolution calling on this Confer ence to name a Special Committee on Denominational Organiza tion, to report at this session a plan for rendering the National Conference complete, by the establishment of a universal system of local Conferences, with quarterly meetings, each entitled to send a certain proportion of delegates, lay and clerical, to the National Conference, meeting once in two years. All of which is respectfully submitted by the Council. (signed) henry w. Bellows, By order of the Council.

Excerpt from Report of the Convention of Unitarian Churches: Held in New York, on the 5th and 6th of April, 1866; And of the Organization of the National Conference; With the Sermon Preached on That Occasion and a Register of the Churches That a committee of ten persons, three ministers and seven laymen, be appointed to call a convention, to consist of the pastor and two delegates from each church or parish in the Unitarian denomination, to meet in the city of New York, to consider the interests of our cause, and to Institute measures for its good. This resolution was welcomed with enthusiasm. It not only met the immediate necessity of the occasion, but it met an eager want which many of the ministers of the body had felt, and the practical determination, of the laymen who were present in large numbers at this meeting, that this body should take some place in the active work of the Christian Church, worthy of its principles and its prophecies. This meeting. Therefore, proved much more important than such mass meetings generally are. The resolution was cordially adopted, and those who had come together there dispersed, with the feeling that they had not only met the exigency which had summoned them, but had at least prepared the way for the organization of the Unitarian Church of America.
