Dear Bishop:
At the regular meeting Of our con-
gregation held on September ~, 1920,
a petition was presented and unani-
mously adopted requesting the return
of our Pastor DR.. W. d. Cook. In ad-
dition, a committee Of six (6) officers
was also appointed to confer with you
at the Annual Conference at Des
Moines, Iowa, and to present the petit
ton, praying to you for the return Of
our esteemed and worthy pastor. The
committee reported that they had dis
eussed the matter at length with you
and that they were led TO believe by
your statements to them that our re-
quest would be granted, and the com
mittee came away relying upon your
sincerity in this matter.
It was with astonishment and
ehagrin that we learned that the ex-
pressed wish of more than FIVE (5)
thousand people had been treated with
utter contempt. This is the culmina-

course of humiliation to Bethel A. NJ.
