Love and Loyalty Pledged.

"You have maintained the liberty and
democracy of Plymouth Church, you
have kept the vision OF high national
ideals burning brightly before US; you
have been our friend and comrade IN
our joys and griefs.
"Giving thanks unto God for your
ministry among US, we, the people OF
Plymouth Church, united In Christian
fellowship, do hereby pledge you at
this time our love and loyalty, thereby
offering to you the highest tribute OF
our hearts"
When Colonel Beecher finished read
ing the resolutions a score OF person.
rose with various proposals. Ex-Sen-
ator Stephen s. Griswold, one Of the
oldest members Of Plymouth Church,
said:
Every one in this room will agree
with me when | say that our pastor,
DR.. Hills, would not Intentionally do
a wrong to any living being. Shall we
stand by him in this trouble? Or
course We will IL will be for the
best interests Of DR.. Hills and Plym-
outh Church that this support shall be
placed in the hands of the board of
trustees.
81 therefore offer the following reso-
luton:
"'That the trustees Of Plymouth
Church are hereby appointed with full
power to act upon all matters which
may arise affecting the welfare OF
Plymouth Church and Dr. Hills"
Adopted Unanimously.
After hand clapping and murmurs
of appreciation Elijah R. Kennedy spoke
in favor of the resolution. He directed
several verbal thrusts at Mr.. Ferguson.
Frederick W. Starr, president Of the
board of trustees, spoke in a similar
vein.
The resolution was adopted unani-
mously.
THE more Ferguson talks said
Colonel Beecher, "the better | like II.
Everybody's satisfied, because we are
learning a lot from what he Is saying
and because we know he cannot harm
Dr. Hills. He says he is ready, for in
stance. That is very funny; we have
been trying TO give him war. and he
would have none of it. You remember
the story about the death Of Colonel
Blank and how IL was asked, What
did he die Off He died of a Tues
day What was the complaint?
There was no complaint; everybody's
satisfied Well, that is the way we
feel about the things this man Fergu-
son is saying"
+. W. Lafrenze, one OF the commit
tee which called last nights meeting,
started the subscriptions with dona-
ton OF 500. Colonel Beecher followed
with o. like amount Certified checks,
made out before the meeting opened,
were taken to the platform and de-
posted before the chairman, Colonel
Beecher.

Within a week from the day when
Raymer, angrily jubilant. had rescued
his imperiled stock, it was pretty gen.
orally known that Kenneth Griswold.
the writing man, had become the
fourth member in the close corpora
ton of the Raymer Foundry and Ma
chine works, and Wahaska was ca
gerly discussing the business affair in
all its possible and probable bearings
upon the Raymers. the Griersons and
and the newly elected directory of the
Pineboro railroad.

Yes; you are distorting her the

abruptness that was like a slap in the
face: IF you didn't spend SO many
evenings at Doctor Bertie's. you would
get both Fidelia and Joan in better

He flushed and drew himself up,
with stabbed amour propre prompting
him to make some singing retort con-

I'm coming to that. This escape
we read about happened on a certain
day in April. 1t was the very day on
which poppa met me on my way back
from Florida, and we took the eleven

haven't forgotten that Mr.. Griswold
was passenger on that same train?"
But. goodness gracious. Miss Mar

sengers on that train. You surely
wouldn't"
"Hush," she said, and through the
lace window hangings Broffin saw her
lift warning finger. What I am
telling you. Mr.. Raymer. Is in the
strictest confidence; we mustn't let a
breath of it get out. But that wasn't
all. Mr.. Griswold was dreadfuly sick
and, of course, he couldn't tell US any
thing about himself. But while he was
delirious he was always muttering
something about money, money; mon
ey that he had lost and couldn't find, or
money that he had found and couldn't
lose. Then when we thought he
couldn't possibly get well. Doctor Ber-
