Plymouth church of East Charleston.

meeting, to examine w. r. Price with
reference to his fitness for the Gospel
ministry, and if thought proper, to
ordain him to the same. also to trans.
act any other business thought proper
when met. Owing to the extremely

council formally to order until four
o'clock in the afternoon. The roll
call showed quorum to be present.

candidate, his church membership, his
statement of religious experience, his
statement of doctrine, his answers to
the questioning to which he was
subjected, his success in the pastorate
while preaching under license, were
all very satisfactory to the council.
