Officers and Members of the General Board Y. M. M. I. A. On account of other duties and obligations resting upon them, it was proposed at the annual conference on Sunday, June 9, that the following brethren, who long have been members of the General Board of Young Men's Mutual Improvement Asosciation, be honorably released. These brethren have been faithful and hard-workers in the cause, but other important duties have been placed upon them, and they were therefore honorably released with the love and blessings of their fellow-workers: Rodney C. Badger, Douglas M. Todd, Nephi L. Morris, Frank Y. Taylor. Reed Smoot, Moses W. Taylor, O. C. Beebe.
