Albert Barnes, removed to the city of Philadelphia ; the object to pass re- solutions to sustain and encourage him while undergoing the fiery trials and perse- cuting zeal of certain self-styled 'orthodox' members of the Presbyterian Ch. A great cry of ' heresy' has been raised, and an at- tempt made to thrust him out of the Lord's vineyard, or at least to destroy his useful- ness and popularity. What will come of it is difficult to tell ; a fire has been kindled, which will not so easily be quenched."]

The Treasurer's report was read, show- ing a balance due him of $48.672, which was accepted.
Resolved, That the Committee appoint- ed at the last annual parish meeting on the subject of taxing the church lands be con- tinued for the ensuing year.
The Treasurer having stated to the Con- gregation that no settlement had been made with Moses Cherry, the sexton, for several years past, it was on motion, resolv- ed, that the Trustees settle with him for his past services, and that henceforth they settle with the sexton, and pay him annually.

For the pupose however of compromising all differences between the congregation and Mr. Mills, they were willing to allow and pay him a certain sum of money. Inas- much however, as it does not appear to the Congregation, that Mr. Mills is willing to accept this sum in satisfaction of his claim against the congregation, it was, Resolved, that Silas Condict, Francis Child, Jr.,
62
PASTORATE OF THE REV. CHARLES HOOVER.
James J. Scofield, and Silas Lindsley be a committee to confer with Mr. Mills upon the subject of these differences ; that they report to the Trustees, and that the Trus- tees be directed to pay him the sum which the committee agreed to allow him, if in their opinion it is right and proper, and Mr. Mills is willing to accept it.
Resolved, That the Trustees be directed to collect the interest due this Congrega- tion, in the manner directed by a resolution of the last annual parish meeting.
The Trustees reported in writing on the subject of Peter A. Johnson's claim against the Congregation, referred to them by a resolution passed at the annual parish meeting of 1831, which report is in the words following, to-wit :
The Trustees to whom was referred the claim of Peter A. Johnson, Esq. for making a line fence between his land and that of the Parish, respectfully report, That Mr. Johnson demands payment for half the cost of an ordinary board fence, of the length of said line, with lawful interest on the same from the time said fence was put up to the present period, and offers to take, as payment in full, a deed for such ground belonging to the Parish as may be contain- ed within his present inclosure; and to bind himself and (should the proposition be acceded to) to keep up the line fence for- ever. The Trustees shortly after the mat- ter was submitted to them, employed Ro- bert K. Tuttle, Esq. to run the lines, with a view to ascertain the precise quantity of land belonging to them, which Mr. John- son had in his possession. As soon as this knowledge was ascertained, the Trustees offered to give Mr. Johnson for his claim a small triangular piece of ground in his front door yard, a narrow strip running along his garden fence, being about two feet wide at one end and terminating in a point at the other, and a small gore in the rear of his garden between his line and that of Mr. Humphreville. This offer was immediately rejected.
As the Trustees do not think it would be expedient to dispose of the piece of ground adjoining the Session house, because it may at some future time, be useful as an entrance to the graveyard, or may be want- ed for some other purpose connected with |
the church, and as they are convinced that nothing short of a conveyance of all the ground within his inclosure, or the pay- ment of the price of a board fence with in- terest will satisfy Mr. Johnson, neither of which are they willing to do, they ask to be discharged from the further considera- tion of the subject. By order of the Trus- tees, F. Child, Jr., Sec't; Ezekiel White- head, President. Morristown, Sept. 23, 1833.
Which report being read, it was Re- solved unanimously that the same be ac- cepted and entered at large in the minutes. Mr. Lindsly having appeared as a Committee in behalf of the New Vernon Church, and asked the aid of this commit- tee in the building of a church at that place :
Resolved, That Loammi Moore, Silas Condict and Ezekiel Whitehead, be ap- pointed a committee from this congrega- tion to meet a committee of the New Ver- non Church on the subject of this applica- tion. That this Committee report their proceedings and opinions to the Trustees of this Congregation, and that the Trustees there upon call a parish meeting upon the subject, if in their opinion it be necessary.
Morristown, September 22d, 1834. The annual Parish meeting was this day held in conformity to notice previously given.
