THE DIFFICULTY SETTLED

At meeting of the A. NJ. E..
Zion churches of this city, held
Monday 10: 80 a. 10. at the Wesley
Zion church d ST., S. W., a state
ment of grievances was made by
several of the ministers against
the Rev. r. Ell. G. Dyson, relative
to his interfering in their charges
and speaking somewhat disparrag-
ingly of the character of scme of
them, and to which allusion was
made in these columns last week.
Rev. Dyson gave satisfactory ex-
plantations, and the matter was
adjusted with credit to himself and
all concerned, much credit is due
to the Presiding Elder, Rev. S. S.
Wales, for the pleasing and able
manner IN which he conducted the
proceedings Of the meeting, and
the Zion Brethren are to be con.
graduated upon the happy settle.
ment of their difficulties.
