Another meeting of the Conference was held in the Assembly Hall, at 2 p. m., at which Elder Anthony W. Ivins presided. The Seventeenth ward choir again furnished the musical exercises.

The choir sang the anthem, "Grant us peace, O Lord." This anthem, and the other selections rendered during this service, were composed by Prof. Evan Stephens; solo parts were sung by James H. Neilson, H. J. Christiansen, Amer Hansen, and Sisters Barnes and Smith.

Prayer was offered by Elder James H. Martineau.

A male quartet sang the hymn :

Oh, give me back my Prophet dear, And Patriarch, O give them back,

The Saints of latter-days to cheer, And lead them in the Gospel track!

Elder Anthony W. Ivins presented the names of the General Authorities of the Church ; each and all were duly sustained in the positions designated, by unanimous vote of the congregation.

The choir sang the anthem, "Gospel restoration."
