West Tennessee answered the roll
call. The entire town. OF Ripley
was in the hands of the delegates,
and great crowds attended the ses-
sions Of the conference.
Two unusually interesting feat
ures marked the second days ses-
sion of the conference. The first
was the challenge to the world re-
garding the character and etficlen-
cy of the clergy; the second was
the presentation of eighteen min
isters for superanuation.
"Are all the preachers blameless
in lifeY' This query brought un-
der vision the character of every
minister in the council. AS the
names of the ministers were called
by the secretary one by one, the
bishop asked of each, lis there

against either the character or the
