Presbyterian Alliance

Presbyterian Alliance is the popular name of "The Alliance of the Reformed Churches throughout the World Holding the Presbyterian System," which was formed in London, England, in July 1875, on the plan of voluntary association, by those bodies that chose to send delegates, and which held its first general council, so composed, at Edinburgh, Scotland, July 3 to 10, 1877, and its second in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, September 23 to October 2, 1880. At these meetings topics of general fraternal interest were discussed in papers formally prepared by divines appointed for this purpose, and the proceedings of each were published in full.
