PASTOR DENIS, RESIGNATION.
To Leave Pastorate of Mt. Calvary Baptist Church After Five Years Service.

On Thursday afternoon Mrs. A. F. EruTy of Platt avenue. clerk of Mount Calvary Baptist church, High street, received a letter from Rev. John H. Dennis containing his resignation as pastor of the church. Just what ac- ton the church will take on the mat ter was not known on Thursday even ing. It is probable that the church will take no action as the pulpit of Mount Calvary Baptist church was de- clared vacant at the meeting of the church members several weeks ago.
 MT. Dennis letter of resignation fol- lows:

 43 Spring St.
 Calvary Baptist church, 49 High
 Street:
 Having been with you five years and seven months, and remaining at my post as a servant of God. and the peo- pie, doing what I could to advance the cause in speech and action, I struggled with you at the same time, to cigar off the debt of $500 that we might serve God without awe. I had learned to love you as myself since you implored me to leave the St. Johns Baptist church in WOburn, Mass, where I was pastorinS in the fourth year. when being informed you were seven months SllGpiiCIur anu lOOr HUI . then a year had passed since we last met. nevertheless on going to my mail box. I found your first unanimous call of April 29. 1910. On coming to this city and finding that your condi- tion warranted immediate attention I. with reluctance, decided to leave my people and serve you. So after visit ing you in May and talking matters over, I returned to Boston and Mon day, May g. I received a reply to my quest Thursday, June 5. 1910, I as- stunned the pastorate of Mt. Calvary and went hard to work in my new field of labor. During this time new organizations have been formed many members added to the church. and a mission established in Willimantic Conn. We were second to none in church activities and all went we'll un- til September last, when misunder- standings from a foreign source brought eruption to the church. which worked harm to pastor and people. Confident and certain of my ino- cence I was reluctant to advertise our troubles before the law. I did so only as a last resort to protect my good name and reputation. Now, since the | whole affair has been tried, the facts presented in evidence, the matter cleared up, and vindication given me through the court, I respectfully sub init, my resignation, from Feb. 4, 1916 to take effect May 4, 1916, including the monthly stipulation averred in the | call.
 I am as ever His servant, l REV. J. H. DENNIS.

Has Copy of Norwich Packet.

Bernhard lilly of Fourth street has come into possession of very old paper. The paper is the old Norwich Packet, published for the week of Dec 9, 177S. The date of the paper is about the time when England laid tax on tea that came into this country. There are several articles criticising the ac- tlon of the British parliament. There is also an account of the citizens re- fusing to allow ship laden with tea to land its cargo. In another place appears an account of the sitting of the county court. Most of the of lenders were to receive a certain num- Der of stripes at the public whipping post; these were in addition to a work house sentence. There are several ad- vertisements for runaway slaves and apprentices. On the back page is the grant by the general assembly of the colony of Connecticut to the city of Norwich to run lottery for the benefit and completing of the old Wharf bridge. The paper was printed by Alexander Robertson, James Robert son and John Trumbull at their print ing office near the court house. Sub scriptions were six shillingS and eight pence per year. The paper is in a fine state of preservation after having been in existence for 143 years and is highly prized by MT. lilly.
