REV. T. P. WOODSON RESIGNS AS AGENT

Brook Minister Who Had Accepted Offer of Trustees of Monnett School Will Not Act. Some time ago The Republican announced that Rev. T. P. Woodson, of Brook, had been secured iby the trustees of the Monnett School for Girls to act as financial agent in securing funds Tor a new building and an endowment for the school. . Rev. Woodson was appointed to this position by Bishop McDowell, of the Methodiist church, and had signed a contract with the board to begin his work on April Ist. Last week for reasons which concerned himself alone, he reconsidered his action and sent his resignation to the Monnett board. The trustees accepted the resignation and expect to secure a secretary for this important work and for his appointment at the next session of the annual conference. The action of Rev. Woodson will probably delay the plans that the trustees had for building, a considerable length of time, and it is to be very much regretted that the board did not procure this splendid gentleman to act as theur financial agent, as he was certain to make a success of the work.
