epondence) That Rev. Clark Crawford
will not accept the call to Chicago, but

things are in the present transition
state, owing to the incompleteness Of
the new church on North Orange Grove
avenue. The bishop has not given ou.
his decision definitely, but authentic in
formation to the effect that Rev. Craw-
ford will stay has been given.
