At a meeting of this Session held on December cend, 1967, Dr. Frontis, you stated that both you and Mrs. Frontis felt that the & Session had been unfair in keeping Mr. Mebonald in charge of the chol§ during the interval between the above mentioned occurrence and his resignation. Our answer to this is that Mrs. Frontis, shortly after the occurrence, did, at her home, in the pastor's home, and to her id friends, make accusations agsinst said pastor, Dr. hk. A- White, whichiay regardless of any provocation, were inexcusable; and for this reasol no member of this session with lovalty in his heart for his pastor could take any stevs toward correcting the matter in the manner in which Mrs. Frontis expected or desired. If, however, Mrs. Frontis be shown the Christian love and respect for her pastor which the pastor and members of this session have every right to expect of each and ev member of this church, the matter would have been tuker uP at onoe bY this session und settled in a satisfactory manner, regardless “_— this might have required.

Sept. 4, 1938 TT HAS HAPPENED.—Our desires and anticipations have been realized in the celebration of Home-Coming and Bond-Burning. The unanimous judgment is that it more than fulfilled our expectations. Many persons expressed the opin- ion that it should be made an annual affair, leaving off the Bond-Burning. The Social feature was delightful and the burning of the bonds created a spirit of joy that was evident in every face. We were made happy by the presence of many old friends and former members. The program was well received and many pleasant memories of other days were revived by representatives of form- er pastorates.
