took the floor aud surprised his congregation again by
saying that he resigned because no intended TO enter
the Protestant Episcopal Church This was the first
time It IL said that the congregation had heard that
Dr. coosman was not in accord with It's faith.
VITA considerable feeling DIR. Goodman spoke Of
tno harmonious relations that existed between him
and his congregation. He felt impeed. he said, TO
ssves his connection with his church because his con-
VERSIONS would not permit him to remain with it any
longer. While be did not give any theological rea~
sons for his act no said that his mother was an
Episcopatan and no felt that in joining her church
he was going back home:

A DIFFERENCE. OF OPINION AMONG THE SOCIETY

or FRIENDS.
The morning and afternoon sessions of tho annual
meeting OF the Society OF Friends yesterday were
cupied with the subjects OF prison reform, improper
literature temperance, pernicious use Of tobacco and
the Indian question. When the subject Of improper

decided difference of opinion that the harmony Of
the meeting was in jeopardy.

donk Jonah Reese and Samuel y. Hanes became earn
est in speaking of improper literature and wished
10 have Instructions given by the society 10 children
upon this subject. Nathaniel Merritt said that it was
not a subject 1T tn b. discussed before tho young,
that it would do more harm than good,
and that children who had proper te1ching and training
at homo would have dosire TO read improper
books This seemed 10 the feelings OF Elias
Underhill who made OF the term thin skinned
senunlenb5 in his reply. whersupon Thomas Foulko
with much warmth indOrsod the views OF Mr.. Merritt
and said that Mr.. UDdorhlrs remarks were undignbed
and unbecomIng, and that DO hoped he might never
again hear such language In a Friends meeting.
This gave rise discussion and feeling, until
Aaron NJ Powell poured OIL upon tho troubled waters
and made an eloquent speech upon modern literature
and morality.
