We further report that we find communi-
cations from Houston Creek church, Fellow
ship church and Hebron church, we recon-
mend TO be read to the body.
Weturther report that we find n letter pur-
porting to be from the First Baptist church
at Dallas, Texas, appointing delegates TO
seats in this body and
Whereas, There is question growing out
ofroubles and complications in said church,
MS to whether or not the body so appoint
| ing said delegates are in fact the First Baptist
church at Dallas-another body claim
| ing to constitute the only legal
body Of said First Baptist church at
Dallas, and have withdrawn fellowship from
the body first named. Therefore be it

A discussion followed in regard to the res
olution, which was discussed pro and con Al
great length, during which time the chairman
Of the committee stated, in reply to cues
tons, that there were but one set of dele
gates submitting credentials from the FRS
Baptist church, of Dallas.
Mr.. Fancher, of Groesbeeck, offered thu
following:
Resolved, that the so-called delegates
from the First Baptist church Of Dallas b.
admitted to seats for the purpose of organ
izing the meeting, subject to any subsequent
invfs tigation the Association may see lit t
institute.
After some discussion the substitute wa:

After singing n song and the benedictior
pronounced the Association adjourned t
meet at night on missionary work.
They met again this morning at the SAM
place.
The use of the church was rendered tn
Association by the Rev. Mr.. Curry il
behalf of his congregation who
deny the right .of the Association to in
terfere in any way with their church troubles
claiming, according to the usages of tn
church, that it alone has the ri ght to adjus
the troubles. In their regular work the,
recognize the Association, but no further.
