Th.9 following: communication rcgard-arding-th p!it in ho .Christian church has b?n received at thla office and explains itself: August 5th. lo:i r. A. Parry, Editor Iake County Times, Hammond, Indn&. Dear Sir: In Thh Times of Auyutt 2nd appeared an article regarding the deplo:t:e ritu&tion In the Christian church or Hammond in which It was stated that "the, eongregratlon" had taken certain action In discharging the arbirtatioti board that had been selected to try M. Smithson on charges that had been preferred and on which charge I tna arbitration board has found C. M. Srr.ithson guilty. It is also stated that "the congregation" has extended to C. M. Smithson since discharging th arbitration board a call for two years. These .ta.tements are confusing in that people generally understand from these statements that regardless of the rsputa?An this man as proven h the evidence presented to the board of arb'.traTlon, ALLi the members cf the Christian church of Hammond have voted to discharge the arbitration board prior to their rendering a decision. a:ia t2 retain this man as minister. We. the undersigned ADULT members of the Hammond Christian church, resrectfully request the publication of the following statement: "We, the undersigned members of the Christian church cf. Hammond, here by declare that we did not vote to discharge the board of arbitration that "md bee agreed upon and who were irvd-er contract to hear the eviH:ce and render a decision theren. This board worked under a signed agreement to try ilr. Smithson on the i-Ir-nce presented on charges that hao been preferred against him. The congregation had agreed by unanimous vote to abide by the decision of this arbitration board. C. M. Smith son had agreed to abide by the decision of this arbitration board. The people prosecuting the case have stood ready at all times to abide by the decision of this board but when it was seen by the people supporting the defense that the board would be forced to decide against the defendant (as stated in report of arbitration board) they repudiated their agreement and attempted to break the signed agreement and take tha case from the hanJj of the board of arbitration in the hope that by so doing the board would not finish Us work After illegally eliminating regularly elected church officers and substituting irregularly chosen officers, the supporters of C. M. Smithson extended to him a call for two years. We are not in sympathy with, ana did not vote for such action. As the Chrftian church has no board to which to appeal other than its local church board, we take this means oi trettlng before the public the fact that we have no part In further sirVpoTting this mli la the ministry here or elsewhere.
