Bishop Miles responded in a very witty manner promising not to eat sparely from the handsome table of which sixteen covers were spread and delightfully served by ;competent waiters, Among those present were Revs, Geo.

L. to be known well enough to render such an attack harmless. If my rep- utation were as well known as Mr. Sprague’s I could afford still to remain silent and let the public judge between us. Replying briefly to the charges made I would say: I was never} employed by Mr. Sprague. I was) his partner owned as much of the paper as he. He could not hire, discharge nor reinstate me. The only thing he could do was to dis- | solve partnership or to ill-treat | his partner. | He chose the latter method who had been her pastor for years, preach her funeral and as _ he, (Rev. Gray)did not know anything about her; he would not allow -him to do 80. Rev. Herrett himself who died three days after his wite made a similar request, Rev. Gray not consenting his remains were buried from the Zion Bapt. church. The funeral was preached by Revs. Lamkins and Howard, a notice of which was sent to the Mt. Carmel Bapt. church by the family which he refused to read or allow the church clerk to read to the church. Turner. Bishop Miles left for Phila., Pa., Wednesday morning to preside over the C. M. E. Con- ferenze, and Idid not care enough about the paper to go intoa court of equi- ty and secure my rights. The gen- tlemen who went to Mr, Sprague did not go as m) friends particu- larly but as frivnds to the paper.

The only defen- sive step I took in the whole matter was to write a note to all the adver- tisers in the Pilot telling them to pay no money to any one without a written order from me.

Childs, one of our Sanday School girls this week at Miles Taberna- cle, because her people did not desire (hat Rev. Gray sbould preach it. Not a single deacon was in the church when he had himself installed. The church has never agreed or known any thing about his installation, more than what he had put in the papers.. When the minutes of the meeting at which he was said to haye been called came up for adoption at our last church meeting, Rev. Gray sang the doxology and dismissed the church. 1 need uot tell you what followed, but the end is not yet. 1 hope therefore, in the interest of trvth and fair play, that you will let the people or vour readers know the cause of the disatisfaction of a majority of the members of our church.

The Rev. 1 am sorry |tosay, has committed a series of | grave blunders since his connection Ist. It was represented to the| church that he said, that if we would call him he would raise five hundred dollars in a very short time; but unless we called him he would not, and would’nt do any thing. The church refused to call him as pastor, bat elected him to fill the pulpit for the time being sub- ject to a change at any time. The Sunday set for the five hundrad dollars only $50 was raised, we have never fallen below $60 in the past five years before on a rally day. The first Sunday he came to the church he called up two of the brethren who had been acting as deacons, and ordained them with- out the advice and consent of the | church which alone had the power | to say that it should be done. It | was contrary to the word of God | which says, ‘lay hands certainly on no man.” Rev. Sandy Alexander and Dr. | C. C. Meader, were requested by | the late Rey. Albert Bolden on his | dying bed, to preach bis funeral, which was also the request of his wife, but Rev. Gray refused to} allow them to do so. Was it nota} matter of courtesy at least?
