teaching brought the people of Wharton.
to high degree Of Indignation which
was vented on the devoted heads of the
members of the original order and the
spurious one as well. This being calcu-
lated to seriously injure the interests of

delegates attending the convention, to
counteract the actions Of this imposteT
and to make public their solemn protest
against the principles he is seeking to
