Meriden, Feb. 12.-At the meeting Of
the parishioners of st. Johns Lutheran
church yesterday afternoon, vote was
passed to allow the pastor to accept the
call recently extended to him. Rev.
Mr.. Koepchen will leave Meriden in
about three weeks, and will at once take

attached to him, will have their confir-
nation exercises on Sunday, February
rs, instead of on Easter Sunday, when
the confirmation exercises are usually
held Rev Mr.. Koepchen will take with
him the best wishes of every member of
his church and many other friends. The
church members at a previous meeting
showed sentiment against his accepting
the call, but since then the Importance
of the transfer was made apparent to
the members. ST. Luke's church in
New York. to which Rev. Mr.. Koepchen
goes, is one of the largest churches of
the Lutheran denomination in New
York The call to Rev. Mr.. Koepchen
was made through committee from the
New York church, which visited Meri-
den several weeks ago. 'This committee
had been to several large cities listening
to the sermons of various ministers and
after coming to Meriden decided on
Rev. Mr.. Koepchen.
A committee was appointed yesterday
to arrange for a successor to Rev. Mr..
Koepchen. This committee will report
to a meeting to be held tomorrow
evening, when undoubtedly a call will
be extended.
