ton from the Executive Committee OF the revivaIs
now IN progress in Brooklyn has caused the Rev.
Dr. Lindsay Parker has given out his letter Of
resignation. In il he says:

my whole nature resents and revolts against the
teachings which the present movement is
publicly committed by the known views and en-
platte utterances OF the evangelist 10 whom
refer.
He added TO this yesterday that he did not by
any means believe that Unitarians and Universal
lists would be finally lost
