ington pike, in Nottingham township,
Pennsylvanis, about zen miles from
this place, is one Of the Oldest esiab
lisbed churches Of that denomination
in Western Pennsylvanis. The mem
bership numbers about 200, composed
principally Of we'll to do farmers and
their families. For years past the
pastor Of this flock has been sorely
grieved by the fact that despite the
private protests Of the elders and the
public denunciations hurled from the
pulpit against the sin Of dancing the
younger members, and in fact many oil
the married ones, would meet al
social parties and indulge in
quadrilles, with an occasional
round dance thrown in by way of vari'
ETY.. Finally, at the suggestion Of
some of the older heads OF the
church, the pastor, Rev. Johr
Marquis, determined TO put a stoI
to the infringement OF thier rules
aud on Sunday Communion day.
all those who bad danced during tn,
past year were requested to stay ava,
from the communion table aud taxi
back seats, Seventy-two member
arose and complied with the order
Twelve have since confessed thei
fault and been received back into tn,
church. The remaining sixty hav,
until March lst to see the error 0
their ways, but should they still re
main unrepentant they will then b
read out With book, bell, and candle.
The pastors daughter is included il
the number, and was considered b
all the best dancer The affair ha
caused considerable excitement i
the neighborhood.
