The Assembly, in view of the great importance of the business which falls to be dealt with, and also the smallness of the attendance of members during several diets since the present session began, find it necessary to instruct the Presbyteries of the Church, when appointing their Commissioners to future Assemblies, to elect only such as are in circumstances to attend the meetings, and further enjoin the Presbyteries, at the earliest opportunity after the rising of the General Assembly, to enquire as to the diligence of their representatives during the sittings of the Assembly to which they were commissioned; and also to instruct all who accept nomination as Commissioners to the General Assembly that, having accepted nomination, it is not a matter of opinion whether they shall attend any or all of the sittings of the Assembly, but on the contrary that, in terms of their Commission, they are bound to attend all the diets of the same.
