Description
Newson is currently serving the Tremont Circuit in the Urbana District. He tells Finley that they have taken in 98 probationers since the beginning of the year. Sadly, 8 appeals were held at the first quarterly meeting, all sustained. Circuit membership is down to 496 compared to 800 when he traveled this circuit before. Jacob Arney (1778-1848) has passed away. Newson asks Finley to submit an obituary for Arney to the Western Christian Advocate. He provides the necessary biographical information to Finley.
