Important Action of DIR. storr g

Important Action of DIR. Storr o Church.
NEW YORK, March Is The Church of the
Pilgrims, Brooklyn, was nearly filled this even
ing IT being expected that DR.. Storrs, the pas
tor, would speak about Plymouth church mat
tiers. DR.. Storrs presided at the business meet
ing. and the only matter tonight up for discus
sion was long preamble and resolutions. The
resolutions adopted are as follows:
Resolved, That the Church of the Pilgrims
will not accede to, and will not be bound by the
principles so declared as the result of the coun-
Gil; that it regards those principles as novel,
false and revolutionary, and Subversive to the
platforms and polity of the Congregational
communion, and that it does not hold itself
bound to continue UNCONVENTIONAL fellowship
with any church which adheres to those princi-
Piles.
Resolved, That upon the fundamental prnci-
Piles of the Congregational platforms and poll
cy, principles which underlie all voluntary cor
porate association and effort whatever concerns
the collective brotherhood of the churches may
be judged by that brotherhood in properly
constituted council, ordinary or extraordinary,
according to the particular case; and that if
church proves itself unwilling or unable by
some appropriate ecclesiastical procedure in
stituted by itself, or 10 an orderly way proffered
by sister churches to lid itself OF scandal
which tends and threatens to discredit all the
churches, it is the right and may be the imper.
ative duty of the brotherhood of churches to
institute inquiry, in order to rid itself of such
scandal, or of such church, and that we shall
regard final denial of such rig bit of the BROTH
erhood of churches to investigate in any ex-
treme case through an ecclesiastical council as
endangering not only the purity but the very
existence of Congregational chnrches.3
On show of hands, the great majority were
for adopting the preamble and resolutions, and
the meeting adjourned for week.
