Cambridge, Nd. March o.-A meot-
ing of tho congregation of the Cam
bridge Baptist Church was held last
Sunday night, whom resolutions were
passed. setting forth the fact that while
tho church recognized the zeal and
conservation CT the Rev. E. Il. Blount,
for the last three years its pastor, and
ielt keenly tho necessity of Heyering
the connection heretofore existing, yet
owing to HE sad affection il was deemed
best that tho relation of church and
pastor BIO not renewed. Mr.. Blount was
taken to the Sheppard Asylum about
two months ago on account of severe
attack of nervous prostratiun. After
the passage OF theso resolutions the
church extended a unanimous call to
the Rev. W. II. Hubbard Of Ilion, N.
y, TO become pastor.
