II has now become my unpleasant
duty to tender you my resignation
as Pastor OF the Mt L on Baptist
church OF this place for your con-
sideration, to become effectiv: n
or about the 3rd sunday in Dec
1921. Ii is common custom tor
the pastor or church TO serve a 90
da, notice before resigning. that
is TO say the pastor when he has,
notion TO resign be should give the
church ninety days notice; in case
the church feels that il would be
best for the pastor 10 resign they
give bin ninety days notice.
But the relation OF the pastor
and church has been very pleasant
for years. We leel that We can
offer our resignation without any
degree of Improperly whatever.
unless the church thinks otherwise.
But it must be forever remen-
bered that we haven't aught against
the church. or even one member.
nor single person in Dewmaine,
saint or sinner When we shall
have gone we shall ever re fleet the
pleasant reistion we have Sustain
Tor the last u years.
Our chief object for resigning is.
we ieef that we can do a great r
service for the Master
We elese by saying. our pray
ers are that the God OF peace be
with you all Amen. and when YOU
have settled on another pastor iol-
low him as he follows Christ

name
Respectfully. {, { Phillips,
Pastor
We offered our resignation as
above stated Oct. IS. 1921 with
fearful eyes aud We may say
weeping heart. \ number OF the
members paid US glowing tribute
NE could not help weeping mirh
them, To do So we feel that we
would have been less than hui
man being.
The church ior the most part
have loved and respected US as
their pastor, methodists as well as
oaptists said bro how can we get
along without you. you have been
