South African Union Conference

In January, 1903, the South African Union Conference was organized, consisting of the Cape Colony and Natal-Transvaal conferences, and Basutoland and Matabeleland missions under the control of the Union Conference. In the conference there are fifteen organized churches with 595 members, nine unorganized companies of ninety members, and thirty isolated Sabbath-keepers,—a total of 715, who paid the tithe of $7,850. There were thirty-nine laborers, of whom twenty-one were on the pay-roll of the various conferences. GSAM 427.1
