PROVIDENT SOCIETY.

There is a Society in connexion with the Independent Churches, bearing the title of "The Provident Society for the Relief of Aged and Afflicted Ministers and their Families in the County of Northampton and its Connexions."

This Society was established in the year 1811: its funds at the present time amount to about L6,400, and they are receiving a small increase by annual collections and subscriptions, the interest of the funds being applied to the relief of the claimants.

In the year 1817, about six years after its establishment, the first claims were made; since that time, the sum of nearly L5,000 has been distributed to ministers and to the families of ministers who were members. The importance of this Society is amply proved by the extent of relief that claimants have received from its funds. Its management is conducted entirely free of expense, and it will be capable of rendering efficient aid to all its members who, in accordance with its rules, present their case for assistance at the annual meetings of its members.

IV.

The following list contains the names of the villages in the County that are supplied with Sabbath evening services, chiefly by the Independent Churches. Some of the villages have an afternoon service on the Sabbath, and some of them an occasional service on a week evening. The list is not to be regarded as quite complete. In some instances, the Independents unite with other denominations in supplying the villages in their vicinity.

Transcriber's Notes:

Inconsistencies in spelling, hyphenation and punctuation have been resolved in all cases where it was possible to divine the author's intent with a reasonable degree of certainty.

Page 88 "...at a meeting this 26th of October, 1820, do hereby call and desire you.." The transcriber has taken the liberty to change 1820 to read 1720, as this appears to be a typographical error.

Again on page 91 "...and entered on his stated engagements there September 14th, 1821" has been changed to read 1721.

On page 313 "Mr. Cuzens, the next pastor, commenced his ministry in July of the same year, and left in October, 1831." 1831 is in error; likely 1841. Has been changed to read 1841.
