then before her, had been fulfilled,
and that now the church Is strong
and powerful and he feels that he
may, without prejudice to her or dis
credit to himself withdraw from the
pulpit
He also expressed the hope that
Under new leader the church may
be made to realize the imperative ne
eessity of liquidating the debt bur-
dening the temple property.
When the letter had been read the
executive committee and others plead
ed that something be done to keep
the pastor here. Rev Dr. w. w Ev-
arts, the assistant pastor, and others
stated that If the present church debt
could be reduced by 100000 they had
assurance that DR.. Lorimer could be
induced to remain The plea for funds
vas Immediately responded To, many
Hedging themselves for various
amounts.
The members of the church then,
by unanimous vote, refused to ac-
eept the resignation, and by the same
act assumed the responsibility of pals
ing the sum required.
