TROUBLE IN & BABYLON CHURCH.
Mrs. H. A. " Post Thought the Rev. John D.
Longs Sermon Directed Against Her.

Babylon, Long Island. Nov. s-There has been
trouble in the First Presbyterian Church here for
some time, but il kept quiet until yesterday
The Rev. John D. Long is pastor OF the church He
is one of the best known ministers on Long Island.
Mrs. H A. V. Post. wife OF the New York broker
is apparently the leader of the faction in Opposi
ton to the pastor. The Posts have handsome
country home here. and spend the greater part of
the year in 1t. The trouble began when Mr.. Long,
in order as he explains it, TO stimulate interest in
church work by men, planned to hold prayer meet
ings for men only. in place Of the regular prayer
meetings Mrs. Post objected TO this innovation.
Shortly afterward the pastor preached ser
mon which he says not intended to have any
personal application. He warned the congregation
against criticism. which he said more of the
devil than Of the Lord. Mrs. Post thought the re
marks were directed to her, and has since refused
attend the church.
A local paper has announced that Mr.. Long is
seeking a new charge. Mr.. Long denies this.
