apprehension that the Secretary will accede to this

The reply to Mr.. TiltOn's statement" by
Mr. Beecher ambiguous where IL should be clear con-

glad 10 leave Plymouth Church To eNtricate IT, the
more specially that organization of incompetents

clear fact. however, that certainly places
Mr. 1Ilton in q most uusatisfyng Hght-not TO

with our views OF proper rlnhOOd the position occu

friendly feeling for the oDaJ or regard Tor the other

init N his later action far more manly and bOn0ra~
bic couree would been TO have crushed at te

Mr.. nlton TO De anything but most wiliul. wicked
