EPHRATA.
THE SEVEN DAY BAPTISTS.
A NARRATIVE OF TIIKIK TKOU1.I.KS.
A Community f Tliirty-lliree Members
Divided Inte Twe Warring Parties.
Our readers have been informed front
time te time of the difficulties in the Epli
rata association of Seven Day Baptists ;
hew as tbe society became reduced in its
membership and the division of ils prep,
city became imminent, or its profits were
te be divided among comparatively few,
dissensions arose in the membership and a
disputed election for trustees resulted in
J, we beatds being chosen, each claiming te
be the lawfully elected one, each attempt
ing te exercise the duties and assume the
privileges of the office, each presenting te
the orphans" court of this county a bend
for confirmation and asking its approval,
in accordance with the act of Feb. 10, 1SC3.
which among its previsions reduced the
number of trustees from seven te three,
their term of office being four years. The
two beards resulting from the disputed
election, consisted of Lercnz Nolde, Win.
Madlcm, Jacob Spaugler, en one side, A.
P. Madlcm, J. J. It. Zerfuss, Timethy
Keuigmachcr en the ether. Their contest
has been befeie the local court new for well
nigh two ycats and is as yet far from set
tled. The lestal aspects of the casts and
the facts of it are clearly set forth in a
master's report lately filed by A. Slay
maker, esq., appointed in equity proceed
ings, in which the Nolde trustees weic
plaiutifl's and the Zcrfass p.irty defendants,
m ought te restrain the latter irein ex
ercising the office of trustee. Majer
Slaymakcr says :
At the time of the commencement of
the differences from which has sprung the
present controversy, and for seme years
previously, the members of the society hi
regular attendance at its meetings and
habitually observant of its religious ordi
nances, were in number about thirty, of
whom net less than three-fourths appear
te have been women. They seem te be an
uneducated, or but slightly educated, peo
ple, in narrow circumstances as te' pro
perty the male members being, in general,
mechanics and laboring men, resident in
and about the village of Ephrata, in this
county and a considerable proportion of
all the members, male as well as female,
being dependent for subsistence, either
wholly or partially, upon the funds of the
society. They de net appear te have lor ler
mulatcd specifically articles of faith or
rules of discipline, but profess te take for
their guidance, simply, the UibleauJ New
Testament, and the distinctive features
of their piactice are : Their observ
ance of the seventh day of the week
instead of the first as tiic Sabbath ; the
administration of the right of baptism "by
trine immeisien, with forward action, in a
stream of (lowing water ;" and by the
love feasts held annually at their commu
nion and lasting from Friday evening un
til Sunday morning, at which feed is pro
vided for all members, as well as all
strangers who may cheese te attend the
meeting ; and by the washing of each oth eth
ers' feet by the members previously te the
breaking et bread at the communion, llic
right of baptism is performed by the elder
or minister (the terms being used inter
changeably) in charge of the congregation,
in the presence of the members of the so
ciety, and is the initiatory step in the ad
mission te membership, which being
followed by regular attendance at
its meetings and participation m
its le'c feasts and communion, the
recipient becomes a member of and is re
garded as in full communion and unity
with the society. The church at Ephrata,
it should be mentioned, is one of four
branches (as they are called) of the so
ciety of Seventh-Day Baptists, the oilier
three being established, respectively, at
Snow Hill, Bedford and Allegheny, in this
state, in all of which the same usages and
faith prevail, and in each of which the
ministers in charge of the ether branches
may administer the rites of the church.
Fer several years-p.ist there has been
among the members of the society at
Ephrata soma dissension, caused partly, it
would seem, by dissatisfaction with the
management of the property of the so
ciety, but ch icily, perhaps, by a disposi
tion en the part of some among them te
listen te, if net actually te accept, the
teachings of David C. Leng, formerly a
minister of the society in one of its ether
branches, but new, and for about seven
years past, (as the testimony taken befeie
the Master seems conclusively te show) a
separatist from it, who has organized a
church upon a model in some respects
different 1'ieni that of the four Pennsylva
nia branches, and net recognized by them
as in conformity with their model. Mr.
Leng has occassienally, since his scpara scpara
ratien from the society, preached in
Ephrata, but net in the " Saal," which
has been closed against him by the trus
tees, and has professed, by the adminis
tration of the rite of baptism, te admit
into the society new members. Such be
ing the condition of things in this branch
of the society, it became necessary
te have the quadrennial election
for trustees, as provided by the act of in
corporation, the day se appointed for that
purpose having been en that occasion
January C, 1879. In accordance with es
tablished usage, notice of the clcctieu was
given by writing, signed by the president
of the then beard of trustees, and affixed
te the deer of the "Saal" during thiee
successive Sabbaths previously, in which
the time specified for holding the election
was between the hours el 12 m. and 4
o'clock p. m. en the Gth of January, A. D.
1879. On the day thus specified, at 12
o'clock, m., according te the clock in the
"Saal," and the watch of one of these who
were present, and the clock of Mrs. Bink
ley, a neighbor but it would seem, ac
cording te railroad time, about live
minutes before 12 o'clock a num
ber of the members of the so
ciety being in attendance, the meeting
was organized by the election of one per
son te be judge, two ether parsons te be
inspectors and ene ether person te be
clerk of the election.' Te this organiza
tion exception was taken byLerenz Nolde
(one of the plaintiffs in this case), partly
en greuuds personal as te two of the per
sons se elected and partly because, as he
alleged, the time for the commencement
of the election had net yet arrived ; but
the exception seems net te have been re
garded, and the business of the meeting
proceeded. In the meantime, however,
a number of ether persons having ap
peared at it, after several votes had been
taken, Jacob S. Spangler, ene of the
plaintiffs and, it may be added, who had
been but a short time previously bap
tized by David C. Leng offered a vote,
which, having been objected te, was re
jected. Immediately upon the rejection
of this vote a number of these present
moved ever te the ether side of the same
room, and, having elected a judge, an in
spector and a clerk, proceeded te held an
other election. The beard of election
.officers first organized returned sixteen
votes as cast for A. F. Madlem, J. J. RV
Zerfass and T. Kenigmachcr respectively,
who, these being all the votes cast, were
declared duly elected, trustees of the so
ciety for the term of four years from date,
and the return of the ether beard shows
that all the votes received by them, seven
teen in number, were cast for William
Madlcm, Lercnz Nolde and Jacob S.
Spangler, who. therefore were also
declared te be elected trustees of
the "society for the four years
then next ensuing. By each et the
sets of persons thus returned as elected
trustees of the society, bends were pre--pared
and filed as required by the act of
incoiperation, and. by or en behalf of each,
rules were obtained in the orphans' court
of Lancaster county te show cause why
the bends se filed by them respectively
should net be approved. These rules were
argued together, and the court being of
the opinion that they were net authorized
te decide which of the perseus claiming te
be trustees had been properly elected te
that office, declined te approve the bends
of cither party, and discharged both of the
rules, suggesting, however, that, as the
second section of the act of incorporation
empowers the society te held an election
at any time te fill the vacancy in the office
which has occurred through inability te
scree, they should, after due notice te all
the members of the time and place ap
pointed for the purpose, held another elec
tion of persons te serve as trustees for the
four years commencing January C, 1879.
Acting apparently upon this suggestion,
Lerenz Nolde and AVilliam Madlcm, two
of the persons voted for as trustees at the
election of January G, 1879, procured te be
posted en the deer of the " Saal " the fol
lowing notice :
- ELECTION XOTICi:.
" Netice is hereby given, that an elec
tion for three trustees of the Seventh Day
Baptists' society of Ephrata will be held
en Monday, the 7th day of July, A. D.
1879, in the 'Saal,' between the hours of
12 m. and 2 p. m. of said day. All in
terested are invited te attend."
Signed Wm. Madlcm,
Lekcxz Nolde,
June 28, 1879. ' Trustees.
At the time mentioned in this notice, a
number of persons assembled net at the
"Saal," admission te which they were
unable te obtain, but at another" conve
nient building aud having elected a
judge, an inspector and a clerk, proceeded
te carry out their purpose of electing
trustees of the society. The votes of all
present -sixteen in number having been
cast in favor of Lerenz Neldc, William
Madlem and Jacob S. Spangler,
these three persons were declared te
he e'ected trustees of the society
of " Seventh Day Bantistsef Enhrata." te
serve for the period of four vears from the
16th or January, 1S79.
A certified copy of the proceedings at
this election, and also the bends of the
persons then declared te be elected, as re
quired by the act of incorporation, having
been filed in the orphans' court for this
county, at the instance of these persons a
rule was granted in that court en the 10th
day of August, 1S79, " te snow canse why
the bend of William Madlcm, Lercnz
Nolde and Jacob S, Spangler, trustees of
the 'Seventh Day Baptists' society of
Ephrata,' should net be approved."
This rule was argued at the December
argument court for 1879, both of the judges
composing the orphans' com t being pre
en t, and both parties being represents! by
counsel.
On the 21st of February, 1S30, an opinion
was delivered by one of the judges, of t he
orphans court, in which it being assumed
that there was a vacancy in the office of
trnstee of the society by reason of inability
ou the part of these elected at the election
held en the 0th of January. 1S79, te scree,
and the election of July 7th, 1879, hav
ing been conducted according te the
usage of the society, se far as was prac
ticable under the circumstances, the con
clusion was reached, that the bend tiled
by William Madlcm, Lercnz Neldc and
Jacob S. Spangler (tbe persons appearing
by the return of the officers of that elec
tion te have been elected te serve as trus
tees of the society)' should be approved
and the rule made absolute.
Frem this conclusion, however, the
president judge of the court dissented and
objected te the approval of the bend.
In the meantime there was, aud still
continues te be, in consequence of the
struggles of the two sets of persons claim
ing te be, respectively, trustees of the
society, te obtain control of its funds and
property, no little confusion and disturb
ance in ene instance, at least, reaching
the point of personal collision and each
having notified these indebted te the so
ciety, that the ether was net entitled te
receive its dues, there has been difficulty
and iu some instances, up the present,
time, a failure te obtain these dues.
Such being the situation of alfairs mi
the 31st of May, 1830, Lercnz Nolde, Wil
liam Madtem and Jacob S. Spangler, the
persons claiming te have beau elected
trustees of the society en the 7th of July,
1879, have filed this, their bill in equity,
praying, that the defendants, who claim
that they are the lawful trustees of the
same society, by virtus of the election of
January 7th, 1879. be enjoined and re
s' trained from collecting tha debts due te
the society, or attempting, as trustees, te
exercise any control ever its property.
On the day of the filing of the bill in
the case, an affidavit was also filed, set
ting forth that the conduct of the defend
ants as stated in the bill, would, if per
sisted in, cause irreparable injury te the
society ; aud upon this affidavit the plain
tiffs asked and obtained from the assist
ant law judge, at chambers, without the
assent or concurrcuce of the president
judge, an order or decree granting a "pre
liminary injunction, as prayed for by the
complainants te restrain aud enjoin A. F.
Madlcm, J. J. R. Zerfass and Timethy
Kenigmachcr from further interference In
the affairs of the 'Seventh Day Baptists of
Ephrata.' "
1 his decree was entered and hied June
2, 1SS0.
The answer of the defendants filed June
30, 1880, denies the right of plaintiffs te
the relief prayed for iu their bill, or te any
relief in a court of equity, as well as all
the material allegations of the bill as will,
en rcfcrcnce te the transcript of that
answer, hereinbefore contained, mere fully
appear.
In the foregoing narrative arc included
all the facts in regard te this controversy,
a knowledge of which seemed te be neces
sary for its proper consideration, and as
there stated these facts are te be under
stood as found by the Master.
In the case as presented by the plead
ings, aud the testimony taken befere the
Master, the questions te be determined are
as fellows, viz :
1. Is the controversy batween the parties
iu this suit one that can be decided prep
crly upon a bill for an injunction ? Aud
2. Supposing that it is capable of being se
decided, have the plaintiffs established
such a case as entitles them te have their
prayer for an injunction granted ?
Te both of these question?, iu a learned
and lucid legal opinion, fortified with the
citation of authorities, the master gives an
emphatic negative, en the grounds that in
accordance with a long line of precedents,
established by judicial decisions, the
courts of equity will .net decida disputed
election cases in derogation of the cemmen
law processes.
In High en Injunctions, sec. 781 it is said
that " courts of equity will neither enter
tain jurisdiction of corporate elections,
nor will they petermiue the right te a cer
perate office, since such questions are prop
erly cognizable only iu courts of law, the
true remedy being by an action at Jaw in
the nature of a quo warrante ;" and in en
tire accord with this statement of the law
en the point in question is "Abbet's
Digest of the law of corporations," Title
Officers, placita 21, 22 and 23. in placitura
22, of which it is stated " that an injunc
tion cannot be granted in an action be
tween individuals te try the right te an
office in a religions corporation. The
remedy is by action iu the nature of quo
warrante.' And te same effect are Ilag
ncr vs. Ileybcrgcr, 7 W. & S., 104, (which
ou this point has net been questioned,) and
UpdegraiY vs. Crans, 11th Wright, 103.
And iu Meekles vs. The Rochester City
Bank, 11 Paige, (N. Y. Chancery Rep.)
118. it was held that a "court of chancery
will net interfere te restrain persons claim
ing te be the rightful trustees from acting
as such, en the ground that they had been
duly elected, and that the remedy of the
corperators te contest the validity of
their election is by an application te the
supreme ceiut, the Legislature having
provided such a remedy by application te
that court."
But en behalf of the plaintiffs it is said
that, conceding quo warrante te be the
proper remedy where there is a question
as te the persons elected te office in a pri-
vote corporation, m tins case that ques
tion has already been the subject of ad
judicatien, and the orphans' court having
approved the bend presented by the plain
tiffs subsequently te their election ou the
7th day of July, 187C, they are prima facie
te be regarded as the trustees of the so
ciety, and as such entitled te be protected
against any intcrfciQnce "with their perfor
mance of the duties of that office until
they shall have been ousted therefrem by
a quo warrante, which it rests upon the
defendants te institute, if they desire te
contest the claim of the plaintiffs te the
right te perform these duties,
Te this argument the answer of the de-
icntiants is, that tuc rule te suew cause
why the bend of the plaintiffs should net
be approved, having been argued before
both of the judges constituting the or
phans' ceuit for this county, and the pres
ident judge having expressly dissented
from the conclusion of the assistant law
judge in favor of the rule, there was in
fact, no approval of the bend by the
orphans' court, such as is required by the
act of incorporation, te warrant persons
elected te the office of trustee in proceed
ing te act as such ; and that further, if
the bend of the plaintiffs had been ap
proved by the orphans' court, as required
ty the act of incorporation, that court
being wholly without jurisdiction in re
gard te the election, their approval could
have no effect beyond the ascertainment
of the sufficiency of the bend for the pur
pose for which it was offered, and any
question as te the validity of their title te
tfie office could be determined only by the
court of common law, wliich is the proper
tribunal for the determination of such
questions.
Te the Master this evidence seems te be
conclusive against the prima facie title, en
the part of the plaintiffs, te the office of
trustee of this society : and their position,
therefore, in his view is simply that of
claimants of a purely legal right, whose
claim hs'ing disputed and as yet undeter
mined by the appropriate common law
method, is net cognizable in equity, which
in regard te such rights can intervene for
their protection only after they have been
definitely ascertained.
With reference te the return et the elec
tion of July 0, 1879, and the appreva.1 of
the bend of the trustees then chosen, by
one of the judges Patterson of the or
phans' court, the master points out that
the charter authorizes no election for trus
tee s ether than en thu first Monday of
January in every fourth year, except te
fill vacancies caused by absence from the
state, resignation, inability, or refusal te
S2ive." The cause of ''inability te serve"
U the only one claimed in this case and is
d:c!ared te be "entirely inapplicable in an
instance such as this in which there arc
persons claiming the effice of trustee who
aie unquestionably able te perferin its du
ties and are prevented from doing s-. only
by the supposed invalidity of the clcctieu
en which their claim is founded."
In the opinion of the Master, thcrcfeie,
there was no vacancy iu the office of trus
tee of this society ichich teas capable of
being supplied by the election of July 7, 1S79,
and tiic title of the plaintiffs te that office,
iu v far as it is rested upon that election,
is incapable of being sustained. But, sup
posing this conclusion te be erroneous and
that a vacancy in the office of trustee oc
curring otherwise than in one of the modes
specified in the 11th section of the charter
could have been supplied by this election
of July 7, 1879, was there in fact at that
time any such vacancy? Certainly net, if
at the time of the regular charter election
en the Gth of January, 1879, there were
duly elected three trustees te serve for four
years from that date.
Upen this latter question the mastcr,after
citing the authorities te show that they are
the proper authorities who are elected in
accordance with the society's charter and
usage of similar bodies says, if the first
beard organized, which elected the Zerfass
trustees, was duly constituted, the second
beard and its election were irregular and
futile. The master then considers the spe
cific and only objection made te the first
beard that it organized four or five min
utcs befere the proper time (12 o'clock,
neon), by railroad time, and en this point
he says :
"Conformity te railroad time is,ofceurso,
a matter of necessity for these having occa
sion te tise railroads, but, in se far as the
Master is informed, there is neither law nor
usage that requires such conformity in re
gard te transactions unconnected with
railway traffic. Iu fact, the general busi
ness of tho.cemmuuity, whether public or
private, in town or country, in municipali
ties, private corporations, with regard te
political elections, aud in courts of justice,
is conducted with reference te no railroad
time, but te time as indicated by decks or
watches at hand and used in the current
transactions of the community in which it
occurs. Thus, for instauce, the sessions of
court are regulated, as te time by the
clock in the court house, and these having
busines at silch sessions would scarcely be
held absolved from the imputation of ne
gligence in appearing ten or fifteen min
utes after court had opened, upon their
showing that, according te railroad time,
their appearance was strictly punctual.
" Se, again, in regard te meetings of
read viewers, the taking of depositions
before country magistrates, the hearings
before such magistrates, the township
elections and all the multifarious business
transacted in the country, the proceedings
are commenced at the hour appointed, net
according te thb railroad time, but as as
certained by clocks or watches at the place
where the proceedings are had or in its
immediate neighborhood.
"There is, indced.ne reason why railroad
time fixed as it is by a private corpora
tion, with reference solely te its own con
venience, never strictly accurate except,
perhaps, at a single point en the route te
which it is applied, and readily ascertained
only by these living in the immediate
neighborhood of a railroad depot should
be adopted in regard te transactions in
the community at large : and scientific
accuracy being in general out of the ques
tion, there seems te be en the subject no
ether rule se reasonable, just aud capable
of practicable application as that which
has, as would seem from the instances
given above, hitherto generally prevailed
in practice, which may be brielly stated
thus, viz : that the time of a transaction
is te be determined by the timepieces in
use at or about the place in which it oc
curs, and any slight divergency from true
time thus caused must, unless fraudu
lently se called fall within the principle,
" dc jninimi.ilcr nan curat "
The conclusion of the master, therefore
is that the preliminary injunction granted
by Jndge Patterson June 2, 1880, should
be dissolved, the plaintiffs' bill be dismiss
cd and the costs paid by them Te this
report the plaintiffs file objections.
