Mr. Corcoran’s Resignation. ‘HIS REASONS FOR LEAVING THE VESTRY OF ASCENSION CHURCH. ‘To the Editor of Tur EVENING Stan. As much surprise has been expressed by many of the friends of Mr. W. W. Corcoran that he should have resigned from the vestry of the Chureh of the Ascension and jeave, as be has openly declared he has, during the Incum- bency of the present rector, the church he ina great measure built, having contributed thereto about $100,000, and which he valued espe- cially as a memorial of and to his cherished friend, the late Bishop Pinkney, and especially as Mr. Corcoran’s position appears to have been misunderstood and misstated by a number of persons, and in some instances by the public ress, will you please publish the following letter of resignation, written by Mr. Corcoran to the vestry of the Uhurch of the Ascension? Let me add that up to the present time Mr. Corcoran has received no reply beyond an acknowledgment of its receipt and the state- ment that it bad been referred toa committee for consideration. The letter is as follows: Wasmixotox, May 3,1886—To THE Vestey oF THE CHURCH OF THE ASCENSION—Genilemen: I hereby resign the office of vestryman of the Church of the Ascension, to whicu, I understand, t was Chosen at the late éleetion. Some weeks ago the rector Informed me by letter that at a meeting of pewholders calleu, L know not at Whose instance, my hame had been designated as that of one of the candidates to be sup} ‘at the then Approaching election, in conjanct ih several ushers embrace ia ¥our present number. in reply 1 Wrote to the rector on the 6th of April, requesting n to Inform the pewhollers engaged in this consul tation that 1 would not ppolnument for Teasons specified, even if 1: should be approved by the unanimous vote of the church. I asked. however, a3 & favor aod as ® tibute to sentiments cherish least, by @ portion of the members who stilt revere the memory of Bishop Pinkney, that I might be al- lowed to name a member of the ‘church who should take my place om the ticker, The rector subsequently informed me by letter, under date of Apritai, that It was the unantenous Gpinion ofthe pewholiers engaged in these deiiberar tons, te expretoed by fortaat revolution, tas the Kentleman whom f Bad designated should not be Diaced on the eket. The terms of this resolution were comraunicated to me by the rector, op behaif of the “secretary” of "though without giving me the secretary's natue or where the meeting was held or the names of the pewholders engaged in tals consultation. Ihave never participated in any consultation of church members “except for purposes of unity aiid peace as broad as the whole enurcl, nd, at my time of life, I can hardly be ex- P xs a ‘this settied conviction of duty. '-ven if Thad no other reason for declining the ap- polntment of vestryman, T could not, consistently, act with @ vestry which. in'the mode of its nomination and election, seems to me the choice of @ party in the chureh, when, by showing some respect to the views of others and by accepung the terms of @ fraternal Feconeiliation, have been $0 easy tomake the election the choice of an undivided church. ¥ ny, ‘W. W. CORCORAN. It will be observed from this letter that the rector, purporting to write for the secretary of an alleged meeting of pewholders, had in- formed Mr. Corcoran of a caucus nomination for vestrymen at the coming election by those who took sides with the rector, and when Mr. Corcoran, in an endeavor to secure harmony and union in the church, made request to be allowed, as a favor, to nominate a vestryman in hisown place and stead, he was informed, through the same channel, thut his request had been unanimously refused. It is worthy of notice that the rector does not,either in his first statement nor in his reply to the request, give the names of any persons connected with the meeting. Mr. Corcoran has many friends in the church who were entirely ignorant of such a maces indeed, the fact that such a meeting as indi- cated by the rector ever took place seems to be amatter of doubt, as diligent inquiry has failed todiscover by whom it was called, what wholders participated in it, where it was eid, when it was held, who were its officers, or What action {t took. Certain it is that numier- ous pewhoilders would have disapproved of the course, stated by the rector to have been unan- imously adopted, had they been permitted to know of this secret caucus of what appears to shave been the chosen very few. x. pecs take FINE ARTS.—A superb collection of high- class oil paintings, by celebrated European and.
