C. P. Church Lands.

| Waverly, Tenn, July IA specia
term OF the Chancery Court was helt
in Waverly to try the case of w. b
Rulings, receiver, VS.. the Bowen Chape
congregation of the G. P. Church ct al
This is somewhat noted case, involv
ing the church lands and a lot OF rents
therefrom of the Bowen Chapel Church
in the Third Civil District OF Humph-
reys County. 1t will be recalled that a
short time before his death, Uncle Berry
, Bowen and his wife conveyed some
eighty or ninety acres OF Duck River
bottom lands to said Chapel O. p.
Church, or rather to the ruling elders,
ETC., for the benefit OF the church, with
proviso that if the church should cease
to exist at that place that the same
should go to the Cumberland University
for the benefit of its theological depart
ment, etc. When the case Of Hudgins
VS.. Landrith was pending petition was
filed therein bringing this church prop
erty in that case, and complainant, w.
B. Rulings, was appointed receiver to
take charge OF these lands and rent
them out and hold the rents, which he
did, When that case was decided in
the Supreme Court of the State, it was
held that the Chancellor had no juris-
diction in any matter save the property
at Fayetteville, hence that case went off
without any directions as to the dispo-
sition Of the rents and property in this
case, and while holding in favor of the
@. p. faction in that particular case,
made no orders or disposition or hold
ing as to Bowen's Chapel property.
In this situation, the G. P. faction Of
the church was claiming the lands and
rents, the Presbyterian Church; U. S.
A., claimed it and Cumberland Univer-
sity set up contention claim to it on
the grounds Of statutory inhibition
against any unincorporated church
holding directly more than five acres OF
land, etc. In the midst Of all these
contentious Complainant Rulings filed
this bill, making all the claimants par.
ties, paying the funds into the court and
asking that all claimants interplead and
Iitigate among themselves the various
claims set up by each; the bill was by
he court sustained as bill OF inter-
oleader and issues made up, proof taken
ind heard by the Chancellor last week
