trust and formerly the actress. Ha-

on Mr. Gilman at'tho Astor House and

Mrs. Mabelle Gilman Corey also dis
owns her two young sisters, Pearl, aged
18, and Eunice, aged 17.

large gathering of pastors and dele
gates from different churches of tho

o’clock by W. W. Childs, pastor of
Sharon church. Most of the morning
session, which was brief, was taken up
by addresses.
Elder Sims, of Valdosta, made an
address, consuming an hour's time,
which was heartily Indorsed by the
audience. He urged the delegates to
stand firm for what they believed to bo
right, and said that If they were true to
principle their labors would not be In
vain. • He outlined the beliefs of the
members who had left the association.
At the close of this address Elder
Childs opened the doors of the church
and two members Joined, one by letter
nnd the other by profession of faith.
Tho meeting then adjourned for din
ner.
This afternoon the work of tempo
rary organization will be token up.

In speaking of the meeting and of
the recent division In their former
ranks, several of the leading members
of Sharon church say the present agi
tation has not been an Issue with them'
In any way, neither- have they taken
any action, but since they'have been
disorganized by the action of others,
nothing remains but that they organ
ize another association.
