GIJNBERLANDS WON'T
NAME COMMITTEE
IMPROPERLY RIGHTS
psoUEsT OF COLUMBIA PREs5Y.
Terry DECLINED BY RICH
LAND PREsBYTERY.
COMMUNICATION IS RECEIVED
Cant RUSSELL Gives Out Statement
Regarding Action at Pleasant Hill
Says Church Rights Decided BY
Supreme Court.

No solution was reached at the
meeting of Richland Presbytery last
week regarding the disposition Of
csI{ch property in Maury and ada
csAt counties owned by the Cumber-
land Presbyterian church. At this
meeting a communication from Column
bIa Presbytery u. S. A., suggesting
the appointment of a committee by
the two churches to confer regarding
the points of equity involved was con-
sidered, and the request denied.
Richland Presbytery met Friday
morning at 10 o'clock with the Pleas
ant Hill congregation, Giles county.
Nearly all the churches were repre-
sented. The Presbytery includes the
major portion of Williamson, Maury.
Giles, Lawrence. Hickman and Lewis
counties. More business was trans
acted than for many sessions before.
Every meeting was well attended, the
house being always full and at times
packed.
Regarding the communication from
Columbia Presbytery, Capt. J. H. Fus-
sell assistant stated clerk, said:
"A paper was presented coming from
Columbia Presbytery of the Cumber-
land Presbyterian church, U. S. A.,
recently held with the congregation
at Columbia, Tenn.
This paper undertook to recite the
history of the union question and also
referred briefly to the recent decision
of the Supreme Court of Tennessee.
While avowing their allegiance to law
they at the same time alleged that the
Unionists are of the opinion that there
are certain equities which might be
settled by a joint committee of the
two presbyteries.
"A special committee was appointed
BY Richland Presbytery to whom this
paper was referred. The report OF
this committee was unanimously
adopted by the presbytery by rising
vote. The request in the paper which
was referred, which had been pre-
scented from the Presbytery OF the
Presbyterian church, Z. S. A. was
that Richland Presbytery of the Cum
berland Presbyterian church appoint
a committee to confer with like COM
mittee which had been appointed by
the Presbyterians, u. S. A., the duty
OF the Joint committee to be to ad-
Indicate what was termed in said pa
per as equities" or moral equities.
The Cumberland Presbyterians were
of the opinion that the supreme court
Of the State of Tennessee had hnally
settled all property rights in a suit
which had been brought by the Union
lists, who in their bill claimed all the
property in the state of Tennessee
held by the Cumberland Presbyterlans
since their organization in 1910.
1.-The Presbytery was OF the oph-
lon that since these rights had all
been finally settled AS above stated /
BY the courts, that it would be purhe |
and in contempt to appoint a commit
tee to further adjudiacte any properly
rights or equities.
"The Presbytery therefore declined
to appoint any committee"
The following is an extract from
communication read to Presoytery

cised in the matter of property rights,
for in no case would such profession
demand any recognition whatever of
the power of the civil magistrate in
matters of theological or ecclesiastical
import.
That, in keeping with the above
record we instruct our churches,
through their trustees, to seek all
good faith in this profession by giving
official recognition to the judgment OF
the Court without delay, save where
in their mind there is doubt as to
the specific character of the trust in
volved, in which case they shall con-
suit with competent attorneys and be
guided in their action by them. How
ever we do not desire that you shall
bubble or be guilty of temporizing In
the matters involved, but that they be
issued with that immediateness and
dispatch which is in keeping with
good form and faith.

of the Churches.
Since it is clearly set forth, the
present situation is one purely of In

erty rights, it is not necessary that

of its congregations the duty of pre-
