EASTBOURNE AFFAIRS
ST. ALBAN'S CHURCH.
The tenth annual Teport of tho vestry, to»be presented at tho annual meeting of parishioners of St. Alban's Church, Eastbourne, shows the funds of the church to be in a sound condition. The church was opened for worship in May, 1910, and the total cost was approximately £3500, including £800 for tile building. Through the generosity of an anonymous donor, the debt on tho church has this year been reduced to £250. Donations towards the stipend fund amounted to £139, as against £96 3s 6d for the preceding year. The amount at credit of the Day's Bay building fund has been increased to £323 13s 2d, mainly by the proceeds of the sale of work on 27th November last, which resulted in £170 being handed to the treasurer. There is an overdraft of £53 Os _4d at tho_ bank, and the Vestry Board invite donations in reduction of this amount. General offertories showed an increase of £5 17s 9d and special of 15s, while retiring collections for tho immigrants' welcome fund amounted to £10 8s lOd. Tho thanks of tho. vestry are given to the Ladies' Guild, the Decorating Guild, school teachers, organists, and all others who have assisted in tho work of the church.
