of the preamble and resolutions adopted at! Al
meeting of the congregation OF, the Second
Presbyterian Church, held on Friday night
last, for the purpose of, urging the Rev. j. r.:
Lettwich to decline call he has received to.
the church in Lexington. Va:
WHEREAS, our pastor, the Rev. James 4.
Leftwich, has received call from the Presby-
terrain Church of Lexington, Virginia;
And whereas, The reasons urged upon him 10
order to Influence his acceptance OF said call as
indicating the wilfof Providence that he should
accept the same, are many and persuasive;
And whereas, this church and congregation
are solemnly i'm pressed with the conviction that
( his nastorai relations with this branch of Gods
Zion was .proyidential- that his field OF
usefulness is enIarging, rather than diminishing;
And whereas, in remembrance: of the bless
ing which, sunder God, Ehe has been to this pco-
ple-in building them up lin their NEST: holy
faith-animating their zeal Sin the service OF
God LIN bringing into the fold the loved ones
of our hearts and homes-in harmonlZng and
fraternzing tie members Of the church and
congregation, we are. justified in believing that
9 he could not be more useful elsewhere In doing
God service npromoting his honor aud glory
therefore, le2!@ g@a - @tJ&9 s4:jE&1#
ss4l.& Resovea, That this church and congreea-
. ton desire to express their unchanging affec
ton for and confidence in our beloved pastor,
and that in our Judgment the severance OF his
pastoral relations with this people at this time
would be, a great ealamity, and seriously retard
; the good work which his mnistrations have
never ceased to promote. =. g
@, Resolyeed, That with humble resignation
to the divine will, we earnestly pray that und':r
/, the Guidance OF Godshe may be led to decline
the caIswhich he has received, and may remains
the pastor Of this church, his usefulness in
creasipg every year, and united, happy, faith
full and prospecting people, will ever bless Cod
that be preserved to them, loving, faithful
and reyered minister. aao. are aa# :.
