Mr.. Carter asks for this committee to
investigate his late actions, he having
been said to lave been guilty of inn
morality, because at the time of his
recent marriage he had a divorced wife
living. And the committee will re-
port whether they find anything in the
charge to warrant a trial of Mr. Car
ter. The characters of number of
preachers were passed. Upon the call
for the names of the ministers who
have joined this conference by trans
fer, these responded: f. l.. Bell, w.
