SAML MASON Pastor
Pursuant to letters missive from the Congregational church in Rock- ingham Vt an eclesiastical Council convened at the house of Rev Samuel Mason Pastor of sª church on Wednesday the 22nd August 1838 consisting of Pastors and delegates from the following churches viz.
Grafton Rev. Moses B. Bradford Pastor Sextons River Rev Nelson Barbour Pastor
Dea William C Sabin Delegate
Springfield Bro Luke Brown Delegate
Chester Rev Silas H Hodges Pastor
Bro Benja Smith Delegate

Council organized by choosing Rev M. B. Bradford Moderator and Rev. Silas H Hodges Scribe and opened with prayer by the Moderator.
The Pastor and a committee of the church came before the council and made their respective Statements. It appeared from them there existed difficulties and Dissensions in the church which greatly impaired Bro Mason's prospects of usefulness, and his ministerial influence ; which diminished the subscription for his salary, and would probably deprive him of the aid of the Dom. Miss. Society thus rendering his support both inadequate and precarious. In view of these circumstances the council voted unanimously, that the pas- toral relation between Rev. Samuel Mason and the Cong Church in Rock- ingham ought to be and is hereby Disolved.
The council exculpate Bro Mason entirely from any part in the difficul- ties and Dissensions mentioned, which appear to have existed before his labors commenced, and they cheerfully recommend him as a faithful Brother in the ministry to whatever field God in his providence may lead him.
It is with deep regret that the council find themselves constraind to adopt their conclusion : a conclusion which seems not merely to deprive the church of a pastor for the time being, but to put an end to its prospect of enjoying the ordinances of the Gospel. And they entreat the brethren of the church as they regard the welfare of the surrounding community, the eternal interests of their neighbors their kindred and their families ; for the sake of Zion and her King, to put away every root of bitterness from among them, to quench the flame of Discord, and to exhibit such an united and lovely aspect that they may hope to obtain and uphold another Pastor to labour more successfully among them.
Adjourned with prayer by the scribe.
