The article reports on church developments and fund drives including a Bedford Chapel school expansion to serve 800 children, a new storey and classrooms costing about 1000 pounds with 600 collected, and a plan to raise 400 more via a bazaar. It covers Devonport Street Chapel’s foundation stone, New York pastor Dr. Thompson’s resignation, Queen's Road Church call for G W Conder, and Adelphi Chapel remodeling in Hackney Road with 120 extra seats. It also provides statistics for English and United Presbyterian strength in England, plus local Baptist union meetings at Derby.

Letter to the Editor on Nonconformist church seating and class barriers

A correspondent criticizes Nonconformist chapels for lacking free seating and catering to income, arguing working class attendance is hindered by class-based pews. He warns this caste division harms the denomination and urges reform to welcome poorer worshippers.
