Voted that Deacons Barstow & Cook & bro. E. Bass be a commit- tee to look after any persons who have neglected to support gospel institutions & to attend public worship and any other cases that require discipline.


December 31 Church met. The comee on cases of discipline reported in part that they had labored with Bro. Joshua PERRY who in their opinion had embraced heretical opinions in relation to the agency of God and the doctrine of Regeneration & Sanc- tification by the efficient agency of the Holy Ghost & the doct- rine of the atonement and who had also neglected gospel ordinances & fellowship with this church.


Voted that Mr. Perry be cited to appear before the chh. to answer to the above charges on Jan. 29, 1842.

March 4 At a regular meeting the church received the re- port of the com'ee on Mr. Perry's case.

Voted that in view of the favorable indications of revival to suspend the farther consideration of Mr. Perry's case for three months.

171


ORIGINAL RECORDS.


to his belief of the work of the Holy Spirit. He affirmed that conversion was affected only by moral power which he de- fined to be the truth and the character of God combined and because the spirit has revealed the truth he may therefore be said to renew sinners. He was requested to state also why he had forsaken the ministrations of the word in this place and neglected to support gospel institutions. He affirmed that the church had no right to require him to come to the Lord's Sup- per. He affirmed also that he had lost his confidence in the Pas- tor. After considerable discussion it was


Voted to adjourn to Tuesday the 7th inst.


June 7 The church met according to adjournment. The case of Mr. Joshua Perry came again under consideration after prayer by the Pastor. The church, after a protracted discussion and consideration of the whole subject,


Voted to appoint brethren Dea. Cook, John C. Wilder and Elisha Bass, a committee to consider and report what action the church should take in relation to it.


The Committee reported as follows : "Whereas brother Joshua Perry has embraced sentiments essentially different from the confession of faith adopted by this church ; and whereas he has absented himself from the communion of the church and refuses to submit to the regular discipline of the church in con- fessing his faults, and making Christian satisfaction for them as he has covenanted to do." Therefore : Resolved that brother Joshua Perry be no longer considered a member of this church un- less he confess his errors and faults and return to its commun- ion within three months.


The report upon motion was adopted as the final action of the chh. 5 to 2 and one member not voting.


After prayer by Dea. Cook the meeting was dissolved.

William CHURCH for hav- ing for nearly two years forsaken the public worship of God and refusing to support the gospel with this church. The committee stated that they had labored with bro. Church without getting satisfaction and that he persisted in maintaining his position con- trary to his covenant obligations :

July 29 Church met according to adjournment. Bro. Wm. Church's case was taken up for consideration. He refused to appear to answer to the citation but sent a communication in which he shifted the issue between him and the church : where- upon bro. Isaac Cook was appointed a committee to wait upon him and explain to him the views of the church in relation to his communication and endeavor to induce him to appear. Bro. Cook reported that he had labored in vain. After considerable discussion the church adjourned, after requesting the pastor to seek an interview with him.


September 2 The church met. Bro. Church remained con- tumacious. The Pastor reported that he had in company with Dea. J. Cook sought an interview with him but found him unchanged in his purposes and unable to give any reasonable satisfaction. After much discussion it was


Moved and carried that at the end of three months bro. William Church be considered no longer a member in fellowship with this church unless he shall within that time manifest repentance for his faults and make suitable confessions.


December 30 Voted that Bro. Rufus Bates be cited to appear be- fore the church and justify (if he can) his general course for two or three years past.

ISAAC COOK, Dea.


Attest J. FREEMAN, Pastor.


December 17 The following is a note from the Rev. Mr. Wight, Pastor of the Cong'l chh. in Scituate :


"Bro. Benjamin Waterman of your church bro't a letter of dismis- sion from yr. ch. and recommendation to ours (last July). He handed the letter to me but has not been present at our church meet- ings & so it has not been acted upon. As he has removed back to H. to reside, I have supposed it proper to return the letter having found it agreeable to him.


A true copy : Attest J. FREEMAN, Pastor.


1858. April 11 Voted at the request of Bro. Benjamin S. Water- man to give him a letter of dismission and recommendation to the Congregational Church in Centre Abington.


July 2 The case of brother came up. Agreeable to the wish expressed by the chh. Bro. stated some things as he understood them. He said that he had done nothing wrong and read a paper signed by those who had accused him of tres- pass against them, in the presence of Perez Simmons, esqr. ex- culpating him of all blame, but as there are many conflicting reports the brethren thought it might be well to look into the matter further and consequently appointed a committee for this 1 purpose consisting of Dea. Isaac Cook, bros. Elisha Bass and Samuel S. Church.


July 27 Chh. met in conference. The committee chosen at the previous meeting July 2, were called to report on Bro. * case and they did so. After a free discussion and expression of feeling the following votes were passed :


Voted That we accept the report of our committee.


Voted That there is not sufficient evidence, to our minds, to sus- tain the charges brought against brother * *


Dea. Cook expressed the wish that if the committee were retained, to be excused from serving on the committee as the chh. did not perceive the necessity of a committee any further.


1


176


ORIGINAL RECORDS.


Voted That the committee be excused from further service.

August 2 Chh met for business agreeable to notice given on the Sabbath Aug. Ist. Bro. * * * case was further attended to. Bro. Bass moved that we reconsider the vote passed at the last meeting to wit :


That there is not sufficient evidence to our minds to sustain the charges brought against bro. * Seconded by bro. Thayer.


After some discussion bro. Bass withdrew his motion for the purpose of adding an amendment :


Moved that whereas in the vote passed at the last meeting viz: there is not sufficient evidence to our minds to sustain the charges brought against brother * * * it was not designed to acquit bro. * * * and mistaken impressions have been received from it in some instances, we do hereby reconsider that vote : seconded by bro. Thayer, unani- mous vote.


Moved by bro. Chamberlin that a committee of three be chosen to attend to the further prosecution of the business before the church.


Voted that Bro. * be suspended from the communion of this chh. for one year, unless within that time he can give satisfaction to the chh.


At the end of one year, if not settled before, the case is to be called up for final action. This is the understanding of the chh. as expressed in their remarks though no formal vote was taken upon it specifically.


Voted. That the pastor communicate to bro: * * * the vote of his suspension from the communion of this chh. for one year &c.


[This communication was made to Bro : * the evening of the same day.


Attest. J. FREEMAN, Pastor :


1859. August 2 The doings of the Church on the case of brother * at the last meeting on it one year ago, were read. Very few members were present so that it was not ,

deemed advisable to take any important and decisive action on the case at that time. The committee were desired to visit brother * * and confer with him on the whole matter before another meeting should be called.

August 15. Church met according to adjournment a portion of Scripture was read and prayer offered by the Pastor. The record of the previous meeting was read : communications were made by the committee on Bro. * * * case. There were four brethren present. After expressing their views of the case they signified their readiness to proceed to take decisive action upon it. It was moved by Dea. J. Cook :


That whereas the charges brought against * * * a member of this church, have, in the minds of the church, been sustained, and he has failed to give satisfaction to the church by confession and repentance, he is hereby cut off from the communion and fellowship of the church.


The motion was seconded by Bro : Bass. The vote was unani- mous.
