But when the meeting of the church was held
for that purpose it was charged there that Tilton
had slandered the pastor. Tilton therefore took
the stand and said, in substance, that he had

to answer them, as God was his witness. Beecher
thereupOn stated that he had no charges to make,
ana the matter dropped. But when the resolution

This action OF the churcn very much exasper-

have prevented such result, and mat he might

HALLIDAY BEECHER AND MOULroN.
While these proceedings were pending Rev.
MI Halliday, the assistant OF Beecher, called upon
about the dlflcuties between Beecher and Triton.
stated to Halliday that did not think that either
he or the church were well employed In endeavOr-
ing to reopen trouble which had been adjusted
and settled by the parties to it. and that it was
better in my Judgment, for everybody that the
whole matter should be allowed to repose IN quiet.
The result OF the interview between Halliday and
Beecher was communicated to me in the following
letter. undated and unsigned, so that cannot fix
the date, out II is IN Beecher's handwriting. and

The anxiety which Beecher felt about these
stories ana the steps he took to quiet them, to-
gether with the trust he reposed in me and my en-
deavors to aid him in that behalf, may perhaps be
as well seen from letter headed "25, 49," which
