does not afford any foundation for put
ting the pastor of this Churchill. w.
Beecher-upon trial; but, on the con-
trary, establishes to the perfect salts
faction of this Church, his entire and
absolute innocence and personal pur-
ity with respect to all charges now or
hereafter made by Theodore Tilton.
Resotved, That our confidence in
and love for our pastor, far from being
diminished, are heightened and deep
ened by the unmerited sutferings
which he has so long borne, and that
we welcome him with sympathy
more than tender and a trust more
unbounded than we ever felt before,
to his public labors among us; to our
Church, our families, our homes and
our hearts.
