ceptance of Rev. Charles r. Brown S
resignation from the pastorate of the
First Congre gational church of this city

a reply to the letter placed before the
church a week ago, in which the pastor

the pastoral relation he had sustained
to the congregation for more than a
years.
The congregation then adopted by
unanimous vote the recommendation
of the trustees that the resignation of
Rev. Mr. Brown be accepted, to take
effect December /.
The reply to Rev. Mr.. Browns letter
of resignation set forth that the con-
dition of the prominent pastors health
and the call for rest and relief from
such exacting responsibilities as
seemed inseparably connected with the
pastorate of the church precluded pro-
test, otherwise the congregation would
have followed it's strong inclination to
overrule his resolution to relinquish
his position.
At the conclusion of the meeting F.
S Stratton. Charles E. .Keyes and Carey
Howard were selected from the congre-
cation to meet with three members of
the board of trustees and three deacons,
TO be chosen later, as a council to rec
ommend Rev. Mr.. Browns successor.
