Dominican Fathers at ST. Patrick's
Church.
A Washington dispatch in yesterdays
papers announced that eighteen of the
clergy and laity of the two branches of
the Methodist Episcopal church, the North
and the South, are in session there consid-
ering the union of the two branches.
The meeting is really a session of the
board of federation that has been appoint
ed 70 act conjointly in the consideration Of
the advisability Of the amalgamation of the
home mission work of the two churches.
A commission was appointed by the gen
eral conference of each of the churches
consisting of three bishops three minis
ters and three members of the laity. Three
of those upon the commission that serves
upon the board for the Southern branch
of the church are well known to the Meth
odists of Savannah. One of them, Rev.
G. G. N. MacDonell is particularly well
known, as he has been pastor of Wesley
Monumental church and also presiding
elder of the Savannah district, a position
from which he was transferred at the last
meeting of the South Georgia Conference.
The other members referred to are RevDr.
+. e. Hoss of Nashville, editor of the
Christian Advocate, and Bishop Duncan.
DIR. Hoss was here at the meeting of the
conference last month, and Bishop Dun
can passed through the city a few days
after from the meeting of the conference
Of South Carolina to attend that at Tam
pa. Fla. During his short stay here he
met a number of the members of the
Methodist churches.
A meeting of the board of federation was
held last summer at Nashville, and it was
there agreed that a joint meeting, that
now in progress, should be held at Wash
ington. 1t has been desired for a number
of years by many in the two branches of
the church to have a union of the home
mission forces. 1t has been found that
the usefulness of both branches has been
greatly impaired in the field of home mis-
sions on account of there being no head
for the direction of their labors. 1t has
been found that the same territory has
been entered by the mission of both
branches, thus rendering an expenditure
of part of the force in some other place,
where it might be needed, out of the
question. 1t is thought it would
be much better plan for
the work of the two churches
in the conduct of home missions to be
governed by common board of direction.
The board Of federation is now considering
this matter in all of it's phases, and the
two commissions will report to their re-
spective general conferences.
