Preach to the MiIiionaires at a New
York Baptist Church.
PUBLISHERS, Press.l


Liverpool, Dec. Sat meeting or
Pembroke chapel a written communi-
cation from Rev. Charles Aked, the
| pastor, was read, to the effect tat
after long and anxious consideration
lie had decided to accept the call to
the Fifth Avenue Baptist church of
New York. The Fifth Avenue church
CT New York has been described in
this country as a church of million
aires, DR.. Aked said, and the people
here had begun to ask how any man
with his record of democratic SYM
pathies and struggles could accept
such a pastorate without a betrayal
of his convictions. These fears, he de-
clared. were grounded on a total mis-
apprehension CT the nature of the
church and of the character of it's in
dividual mem bership, and when they
should come to know the facts as to
the situation there they would not re-
greet in their minds that he had elected
to make his home with these people.
DR.. Aked received several cable
grams from prominent members of
the Fifth Avenue church in New York,
urging his acceptance of the call. John
d. Rockefeller, it is said, cabled DIR.
Aked assuring him free hand in
his work.
