first to comfort anyone in time Of

In speaking CT the affair with Miss

I'VE have taken into consideration
the relationship which the pastor has
borne to his people. and while we be-
lieVe that there may have been some
indiscretiOn, still we believe tina the
usefulness of neither is in any wise

The report closes with the following
quotation:
'Brethren: If a man be overtaken

meekness.

The affair reached it's culmination a
short time ago when some letters writ

OF the church board. II is asid that
Mrs. Stetson discovered them and gave
them to member OF the board.

The letters were written in a very
endearing style. They were signed In
affectionate terms, some OF them as
