SUMMIT.

The stewards Of the Methodist Church of Summit
held their regular monthly meeting in the church
parsonage Monday evening. The principal bust
transacted was In relation to the ACCESSIBILITY
Of requesting the resignation of the pastor the Rev
DR.. y. Randolph. 1t appears that there has been
considerable friction between the pastor and vari-
Gus members of his congregation, and this trouble
came to a focus evening last week when four
OF the most influential members of the church.
Daniel W. Day. Ernest D. North. John Brewer and
Charles l.. Wood. called upon the pastor ana tod
him that they were not satisfied with the way the
church was being conducted or the work that was
being accomplished Although they did not see
the pastor in their official capacity "a officers in the
church, Or Randolph considered their reifarks
and actions equivalent TO a demand Tor MS
resignation and the question was discussed at great
length at the meeting Monday evening. The
stewards did not adjourn until nearly II O'Clock:
Although definite action was taken II Is supposed
that Or. Randolph will not remain in Summit longer
than the close Of this year. Previous to coming to
Summit pr Randolph had been pastor of the
Methodist Church at West Brighton. staten Island.
for "A term Of five years. He succeeded the Rev DR.
r. NJ Goron. who is at present pastor OF the Frank
lin Street Methodist Episcopal Church in Newark.
