When tak ing the names of those who had ex pressed a desire to sign the pledge a young occupant of a gall ry seat called out. "Add my name and a T,' for I urn 'T-totaller.'

The at tendance was large, Before the opening of the meeting Mr. Lldd-ll In n fe-llng manner, addressed those present, insur ing them that he had 'end. red Ids resig nation only after careful ttnd prayerful consideration. The church md Its mem bers had a warm pla-e In lis heart, but he believed the Interests of the church as well as his own Interests, would be best served by the step he had taken, and, therefore, before the meeting com menced, he wished them to fully under stand that his decision was rlnal and the meeting could act accordingly. Pastor Llddell then called upon Rev. Dr. Garner to act as moderator of the meeting, and he retired. Dr. Cnrner then called the meeting to order and the clerk, Elder K C. Holden, read tho minutes of the last meeting, which were approved. Rev. R. Llildell's resignation was then, on motion, accepted, and the following resolution offered by Elder C. A.
