General Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in the United States. : Woman's Home and Foreign Missionary Society. Minutes 1884-1916 [microform].

The series consists of handwritten minutes of the Board of Trustees' annual and monthly meetings for 1884 through 1916. They were in a bound notebook, but at the time of accessioning the covers were removed. The minutes are brief synopses of actions taken at meetings. There are occasional references made to additional reports. Unfortunately those are not found in this or any other series in the collection. The records are fragile, but in relatively good condition. Care should be taken with their handling.

1 microfilm reel ; 35 mm.
