Methodist churches in this county 10 be
spread upon the minutes of the court. II will
be remembered that our Legislature, At its
last session. in order to settle and quiet the
division in the Methodist Church in Virginia,
passed Il law authorizing the congregations
of the churches TO determine, by the votes OF
their members, to which division OF the
Church they would attach themselves ); that
such action, upon the approval of the Judge
of the Circuit Court, should be spread upon
the minutes of the court and that the same
should vest the title TO and the control and
use of the property in that division of the
Church for which the majority of the mem
bers cast their votes. An overwhelming ma
iority of the votes of the several congregations
in Rockingham were cast, of course, for tn"
Methodist Episcopal Church, South. Their
application TO court was resisted by the north
crn portion Of the Baltimore Animal Confer
ence 1T u former term of this court, but has
since been abandoned.
This decision. right and just in itself, and in
