The minority report, from the same Com
mittee was presented by Rev. Mr. MeLaren,ini
follows .
The Committee regrets to, state that the difficulties
heretofore existing in the Seminary of the Northwest,
and which mere supposed to have been amicably and
finally adjusted by the action of the Assernbil which
met in the First rteshyteriatt,Churchott Bittsburgh,fn
November lent. still continue, or - have. lirciltanout,
afresh ; that by this renewal of strife the interests of the
Seminary are greatly imperilled, and our COIIIIIIOII
Christianity sah;ect to reproach.
Complaint hoe been made before your Committee
against the action of the Board of Birectora in re•elect
mg the members of the Board of Trnstees who wore die.
placed in 150.
After a careful and prolonged investigation of this
matter, your committee is constraiued to express its re
gret that the parties to the agreement signed in Chicago
on the third day of November, did not arrive at a
more distinct understanding et the terms of the agree
ment at the time. it. is ,ippareut they each put a very
difhirent interpretation upon the langettge of the con
[recto, and thus, so fur as we can judge, without any
secret reservations or intention to litter.
An agreement or coy eosin t upon which contracting
partiee, without lunds.and each ignorant of each other s
• views, put two different interpretations, must IlOCe81311•
rily fail to give practical satisfaction. In this view of
the came, therefore, it cannel properly be sold that any
default in complying with the allegations of the agree
, mint of the nature of amoral violation of the compact.
Under such circumstances. and in view of all the facts
. which have come before no, your committee recommend
the following resolutions:
fiese/red,i. That the Assembly 'solemnly enjoin the
parties concerned that no further controversy respect
rig pest issues be Indulged In, and that all cordially
unite in efforts to promote the prosperity of the iustita.
tion in the field of usefultiese now about to widen go
greatly before it.
10501144,2. That the Board of Directors be advised to
conaider whether (
receive not

trustees in question, that their placed may be filled more
satisfactorily to all parties.
Resolved, 3. That those friends of • the Seminary who
have not yet contributed towards its endowment shell
make a prompt and earnest effort to raise fur it the BUM
of at lertat'B2.sooo.
Dr. D. Reed spoke in support, of the ,re
port of
,a majority of the committee.
Ex-GoVernor Pollock spoke in explanation
of the legal aspects of the question.
ltev, Mr. McGill of Illinois, deprecated
the quarrel, but claimed that it was the duty

voted for the election of the Trustees who

his colleaguea any intention of violating any ,
compact. . ,
Rev. C. L. Thompson thought that some
thing was due to the dignity of - this house ; lie
was not a party to 'either Side of this quarrel,
but he was a memberof this Assembly and his
' sentiments on the matter. were : " Let us have
peace." He thought that it was the duty of
the Assembly to put its rebuke on the breach
of contract which was perpetrated in the''re
election of the Trustees displaced by the As
-sembly.
Dr. S. J. Nicolls thought that the Assembly
should be very careful_ how they brand any
parties as contract breakers.
Judge Skinner,-a member of the Committee
of Investigation, feared that with the hest
motives the Assembly was about to do injus
tice in this matter. The question at issue was
a question of law. He feared that there was
some passion or prejudice in this discussion.,
He.hoped.that_no unjust imputations might be,
_
placed on pure men.
Dr. Beatty hoped that invidious remarkil
about breach of contract might be so far
modified as to satisfy Dr, , Wilson..and,Dr.
Buchanan. . . .

morning. The entrance was effected through
the front door. The robbers first went into
the office on the first floor. Nothing was dis
turbed in the front room. In the back room a
closet -was. opened, and a _box_which,looked as
if it - might contain money was taken out anifi
examined. A large envelope which contained'.
1)1118 was broken open. The thieves didn't find
anything they wanted in this room. They
a candle from a table, lighted it,aud proceeded
to the parlor. There a closet-was examined,
hut nothing was taken. From a table a fancy
dagger was removed, and was subsequently
found at the foot •of the stairs. Adjoining
the parlor is the sleeping apartment of Mr.
Brewster. This WWI next entered, and Mr.
Brewster is of the opinion that he was placed
under the influence of chloroform. Prom a
table seven pieces of old4ashioned,heavy silver
ware were taken, and were carried otl by the
rascals. From the bureau a small and band
sonic gold watch, worth about $350, and a
sapphire ring, were taken. Two fancy
boxes, bearing the appearance of jewel
hoses, and - Mr. Brewster's coat, vest
and pants, were gathered up and taken down
stairs into the servants' dining room; linhis

evidently with the intention of ascertaining
its value. The two boxes were opened, but

of Silver ware and the watch and ring. The
property stolen is valued at about $2,000.
