Of the united assembly.
Finally that when the foregoing
has all been adopted and official an

the moderator of each assembly shall
be empowered to announce that the
reunion and union of the Northern
Presbyterian Church of the United
States of America and the Cumberland
Presbyterian Church had been fully
consummated and will be henceforth
in full force and effect, the history,
and records of both churches to be
preserved as the history and records
Of the united church
Related briefly the story of the sep
aralion is as follows
In 1910 the Cumberland Presbyteri-
an Church was organized in Dickson
county, Tennessee, by three Prcsby-
terian ministers, who had withdrawn
from the Presbyterian Church on
February 4th of that year. The divis-
ion arose concerning the extreme doc

insisting on exigencies on frontier
life demanded occasional exceptions
to the established rude. Numerous
efforts to unity the two church bodies
made since that time have failed.
Every effort in this direction was fruit
less until the revision by the Presby-
terians of their confessions of faith
in 1903 opened the way. Immediately
| following this a general committee
was appointed by each church to for
mulate a basis on which to effect a
union. These committees met in st.
Louis two years ago and began the
steps that were completed today, the
ultimate result of which will be union
of two churches in name and in fact.
The general assembly of the Pres
byterian church have sent a reply to
a letter by those of the Cumberland
Presbyterian Church who have gone
on record as being unalterably OPP
posed to the union. The reply in sub
stance states in answer to the asser-
tion that the Presbyterian Church is
not unanimously in favor OF the union,

no progress could be made. Besides,
we are glad to correct your own mis-

position of our church. At first the
