THE srnJycr PROPOSED Br COLONEL WITH
yrs-Tue COMMITTEE ELECTED BY THE
COUNCIL.
fspec,a, telegram to the Dispatch.l
NORFOLK. VA, May 2O,--In the Episco-
pal Council this morning Colonel withers
offered the following, which was adopted
Resolved, That committee OF three
clereymen and three laymcn, with the
Bishop as chairman, be appointed, whose
duty shall be to examine the whole ques-
ton Of diocesan division, and report to the
next Council whether the claim OF the
Bishop to the exclusive right Of initiating
any move looking to division OF the do
cese Is authorized or sanctioned by the
constitution or canons Of the Church.
The Bishop declined TO serve on the
committee.
On motion Of Rev. Mr.. Dashiell, the
Bishop was excused from serving.
At this point
CONSIDERABLE DISCUSSION
took place in reference to the resolution
which had been adopted, when Rev. DR..
Hanckel moved that the Council elect the
committee by ballot. Adopted.
Rev. DR.. Newton moved reconsidera-
ton Of the resolution OF Senator Withers.
Lost by vote Of 80 to 81.
A vote being taken, the following Com
mittee on Diocesan Division was elected:
Revs. J. s. Hancke, G.. S. Norton, j. G.
Armstrong, and Messrs. Withers, Shelley,
and Barbour.
When the vote was announced Bishop
Whittle made
PERSONAL STATEMENT
in reference to what had occurred on the
subject OF division OF the diocese during
the past three days, at the conclusion Of
which he announced that he would serve
on the committee. In this connection
5000 copies of the constitution and canons
were ordered to be printed for the use Of
the diocese.
Rev. w. A. Weddell, from the committee
to which was assigned that portion OF the
address in reference to the work

The Diocesan Missionary Society was
to prepare statement by the

among the colored people, together with
the source from which they obtain their
support.
In DIR. Weddelrs previous remarks in
regard to diocesan missions he was Gu
riously forcibe. He emphasized the fact
that contribution OF cent a week from
each commitment OF the diocese would
yield a sufficient sum TO support the entire
operations Of the secretary in Virginia.
Rev. Robert Nelson spoke on
MISSIONARY WORK IN CHINA,
md three Indian students from Hampton
Normal School were heard; after which
the Council adjourned sine die.
