dihieulty behind the resignation Of Mr.. Dunn

difficulty behind the resignation of Mr.. Dunn
bell.
Trouble between the choir and vestry has
broken out in St. Paul's Episcopal church,
and unless the differences are settled at an
early day the probability is that the choir will
resign IN body. The choir consists OF
Joseph Benedict, J. V. Boyer, Mrs. Alois
Bodden, Miss Heekel, OF Chicago, and Miss
Bhntlih, of GAINESVILLE, the latter being the
organist. The members have refused to
sing Whenever called upon during the week
by different members of the church, on the
ground that ii interfered too much with their
daily avocations. They declare that their
contract with the society does not require
them to respond to calls for extra occasions,
Ior which they receive no compensation, and
often times no thanks. Mr. Benedict has
refused 10 sing on Sundays, except at regu-
lar services, alleging that it seriously inter
ieres with his business. Although his asso-
ciates are willing to act on that day, they
declare that if the vestry asks for his resig-
nation they will all retire.
