in the parson Of tho godly Dencon Wss7.
It will be remembered that Plymouth Church,
at tho TINA Mrs. A1ou1vos was dropped fro,a
membership, also dropped the good Deacon,
for tho reason That he was not willing sub
scriber to Mr. DzRounR's purity aud infalli-
bi'ity, and felt himaef open to conviction
relative to Mr.. BEEouEns guilt or innocence.
Feeling in this mood Of mind, Deacon WEST
naturally enough stayed away from meeting.

dropped, however, but creataa such muas
that lis brothren were glad enough to recon-
sider their vote. The Examining Committee
then sont for him and gave him to uu-
dcrstand that 1t WAS his duty either to
withdraw from the church or to attend tie
services. Tho good Deacon thoreupon put
on his spoctacles md rose to explain
tlat he could not oonscieniously tako eitl,er
oourso, because 10 was troubled In his mind
as to tho character Of his pastor, The Ex-
au,ining Committee having nothing further 10
offer, ind Deacon WET still being In IN un-
settled frame Of mind aud anxious to dis
charge his religious duties, addressed himself
directly to Plymouth Church and uoti8od The
brethren that they ought to help him dis
charge Ais duties, aud that there was no bet.
ter way to do this than by making regular
and impartial investigation Of the terrible
charges sgainat his pastor, and remove "a
feeling OF doubt and apprehension aharsd BY
Thousands Of Christian men and women
throughout the land." In order to mike tho
duties Of tho church aa simple and easy Is

suggests that they call mutual Council, to
which shall be submitted only two questions:
First, Is the Rev. II. ". BKxoAxR guilty Of
adultery7 and. second, is the Rey. II. ".
BzxcHEH guilty Of periryf
This Is plain, blunt way Of putting the
