f. 39--printed resolutions of the meeting of the committee for Nottingham, 24 November 1789, George Walker, chairman, with copy sent to Wood.  


Attendants at the meeting are Mr. Mark Huish, Robert Denison, John Hancock, John Buxton, Rev. Dr. Nicolas Clayton, Rev. Geo. Walker, Rev. Mr.  Robert Smith, Mr. Wm. Farmer, Thomas Rawson, Samuel Statham (written in by Wood), Mr. Edward Swan, Rev. Mr. Richard Plumbe, Wm. Smith, Esq. Mayor, Thomas Watson, Rev. Mr. Hopper, Edward Lomax, Isaac Rawson, and Geo. L. Cox. 

They approve the proposed Plan of Union from Birmingham meeting.  They desired a District meeting to occur no later than 21 December 1789.  They proposed their own meeting to choose delegates for that District meeting to occur on 9 December 1789 in Nottingham at the Flying Horse.  Walker notes, “those Congregations to whom it may be inconvenient to send Deputies may previously write to the Chairman, expressing their approbation of the measure, in which case their letters will be supposed to vest a power in the Meeting, to represent them equally as if they had sent their respective Deputies.”
