found several converted Cherokees who have abandoned the gods of their fathers, and have devoted themselves to the service of Jehovah. Over this little flock Rev. Mr. O'Bryan has been regularly ordained as the pastor, and it is gratifying to learn, that his services as a minister of Christ, are highly acceptable. For the support of this School, the government of the United States furnishes an annuity of two hundred fifty dollars which has hitherto been appropriated for the benefit of Rev. Mr. O'Bryan; but it appears to your Committee that this amount is very inadequate to the necessi ties of his family, which consists of seven persons. It is therefore to be hoped that the wants of this Station will receive the prompt attention of the Board.

All which is respectfully submitted.

JOSEPH B. COOK, Chairman.
