Res,enat,on Of a well known Pastor.

Resignation of Well Known Pastor
AS stated in THE UNION last week, Rev: Karl
Buff, pastor of Jerusalem German Lutheran
Church, Gardenville, Belair road, had resigned;
Since then the resignation has been accepted
by the congregation; Rev. Mr. Butt has been
pastor of the church eight years and during
that time he has received many calls, all OF
which he had refused. During the latter part
of the spring some difference arose between the
pastor and certain members of his congrega-
ton and he decided to resign. After the ser.
vices on Sunday morning, June 2lst, he for
mally rendered his resignation to the congre-
CATION and urged them to accept it. Alta meet
ing held few days ago the vote on accepting
the resignation was very close, and the final
decision only rested with the determined desire
of the pastor to sever his connection with the
church Rev. Mr.. Buff has at present several
calls under consideration, the most important
of which is from the congregation of the Ger
man Lutheran Church at Annapolis, but he
will remain at Gardenville until his successor
is elected Rev. Oscar Guthe of East New
market, Nd. will preach at the church next
Sunday morning.
