PASTOR TAYLOR EXPLAINS.
Why Shiloh Baptist Church Took Wal
ker'S EXnelled Members

ker's Expelled Members.
Rev. j. Anderson Taylor, pastor OF
Shiloh Baptist Church, is not disposed
to keep silent under the censure that has
been put upon his congregation by other
Baptist churches in tie District and Alex
andria for admitting to membership per-
sons expelled from Walker Memorial Church.
He was asked yesterday if be had received
the report of. the Baptist council which
was held Tuesday at Walker Memorial
Church. and replied in the affirmative,
making a statement in behalf of the Shiloh
Baptist Church.
II was called TO the pastorate of Shiloh
Baptist Church in December, 1890" said
Mr.. Taylor, land at that time the mem
bership of the church as far as ascertained
was only about 369 At the meeting which
decided my call 217 votes were cast for
me and 81 or SO for Rev. l. v Bryant,
now pastor of Walker Memorial Church.
In February, 1891 / was made pastor of
the church.
I'm March charges We're brought against
the old officers, in that they had invited
the police into the Shiloh Church and had
some OF the congregation arrested, TO
prevent them from voting for a pastor.
This was declared to be in direct viola
ton of Baptist principles, and by vote of
237 to 8 the old officers were removed,
and directed to appear before the next
church meeting and show cause why they
should not be excluded.
During the time pending their censure
they obtained all the members that they
could influence and organized the present
Walker Memorial Church. This, of course,
caused their expulsion from the Shiloh
Church on charges of rebellion and failing
to hear the call of the church. The council
of Tuesday was called by the Walker
Memorial, and the Shiloh Church could not
attend because of-their recognition
of that church.
''As TO the Shiloh Church receiving mem
bers excluded from Walker Memorial,
Ihave this tosay The remembers complained
of by the Walker Memorial were members
excluded by Shiloh Church four years ago
for failing TO hear the call of the church,
so when they returned some weeks ago,
saving that they had repented for their
acts and that they desired to return, Shiloh
received them, feeling that they were
acting under strict Baptist principles and
that it was the duty of the church TO receive
them The reason of Shiloh not being
represented at the council was not because
of its lack of respect, but because of its
non-recognition of Walker Memorial as
a Baptist church.
'If any church but Walker had made the
call we would have attended. 1t is Mat
ter of principle and not personal enmity."
