FAILURE OF ONE
BAPTIST CHURCH
North Emporia Ave. OrganIza-
ton SurrenderS Charter
STORY OF RISE AND FALL
Compelled to Return to the
Parent Body.
STORY OF RISE AND FALL

This morning the North Emporia
avenue Baptist church will be absorbed
By the First Baptist church. The men,
bers of the meeting house on the corner
OF Emporia avenue and Tenth street who
number forty-six resident and five for
eign, will leave it TO the probable fate
of d mission chapel and most of them
will present this morning their letters OF
admission TO the First Baptist church
on the corner of Market and First streets.
The disbanding of the North Emporia
avenue organization was determined on
at the annual meeting of the church in
December Such action was deemed best
as the organization has just barely been
holding together. 1t has had no pastor for
a score and more of Sabbaths because a
pastor must have an income and forty
six members could not furnish a life-sup-
porting one. \ conference of the trustees
and deacons of the church with the Of
ficers of the First Baptist organization
resulted in the surrender of the charter
and the REIMBURSEMENT of a deed to the
church property to the First Baptist
church.
The history of the rise and decline Of
this organization is very interesting. Rev.
erend G. w. Cassidy has made search
of the records and has found the detail.
The church has seen prosperous days
and was an energetic church from the
beginning. Il is an offspring of the
First church and the ediflce was built by
that organization. The building was
erected originally for a mission chapel,
but it did not long remain such. 1t
was but short time until church or
ganization was formed.
The idea of mission chapel was con-
ceived by DR.. II. o. Burleigh, then
member Of the First Baptist church. He
donated the lots for the church on May
%. 1885, upon consideration of $500
chapel being built and afterwards sub
scribed $1,000 toward the building fund
The church fell in with the idea and by
July 8 the pastor announced that more
than the necessary amount for building
had been raised. The chapel was now
assured and an additional $1,000 for fur
nishing the church was soon in the hands
of the building committee. BY July 2
plans had been drawn, the contract let
and work upon the foundation begun.
On december L. liIe S0AAo S0S4' 49,
eight members took their letters from
the First church and formed the En-
poria avenue church organization b. j.
Davis. then associate pastor for the First
church became the first pastor OF the
new church The church continued to
prosper and was a strong organization
until its membership was drained by de-
parting families.
Reverend A O. Phelps was the last pas
tor and he did everything in his power
to hold the organization together Fin
ally finding that he was battling against
too great odds, he retreated. This was
wear ago and for twelve months the in
evitable has been working itself out
