Losl Creek and Kiffiin Church Case
The sudd-n departure from the Brick
Church, without notice to the congregation
or any apparent reason for it, seemed to re
quire some explanation on the part of those
that directed the movement. Tt.at expia
nation was given in the Chape! and news
paper. It put all Il blame on the people
of Lost Creek. It placed thi-iti in a talse
position. It subjected them lo injurious
criticism, aff-cting their good faith and
christian character to a word, it charg-d
them with going back on laeir contract, in
the nutter of interest. If this be true, they
deserve ail the censure they are receiving.
Kut it is not true; and to show that it is
not, is the only obpvt of this communica
tion. There is no other way left tor Lest
Creek to place tbeoisylves right before the
public
tV hat are the facts t
Committees of the congn-gstion of Lost
Creek and Mifflin met on the 18ta dsy of
May, A.D. 188I,'for the purpose of settling
all the difficulties and disputes between the
two churches." They came to an agree
ment, which was reduced to writing and
signed in the presence of Iter. Robert Ham
ill and William Dorrio, Ksj , Cotataittre of
Huntingdon Presbytery. The agreement
provided
1. "That tbe MitHintnwn Church agree
to psy to Lot Cret-k Church the ioui ot
eight hundred di.ll-.rs, payable in four an
nual payments, without interest.
i. "Tbe Miltiintowa Church to pay the
cost of repairing the o.d brick church and
to oar the cost of the equity cue: tbe
Lost Creek church nut to Hie a bid for wit
nesses.
2. "That this agreement is not to be
binding until ratified by the said churches.
4. That this agreement is eutertd into
by tke said Committees, siibjixt to tbe ap
proval atoresaid, in good faith, and we sev
erally agree to use oar influence with our
respective congregations to have the same
ratified and approved within ten days from
this date.
6. "That after the ratification of this
agreement tbe Lost Creek Church shall ex
ecute a release of their interest in all the
Corporate property at Miftlintown, and the
Mitflintown Church shall eaecnte rel-ase
of their interest in the Corporate pruperty
of Lost Creek Church.
5. "That tbe purpose of this agreement
is to settle forever all controversies hereto
fore existing, and we humbly ask God's
blessing upon this amicable settlement."

On tbe 30th of May the congregation of
Lost Creek met to hear the report of their
Committee. The report was read with a
recommendation of the Committee that it
be adopted. It was then unanimously
Resolved, I, "That we will not go bat k on
the action of our Committee of the 1Mb ol
May to accept eight hundred dolUrs, and
that we now confirm thit action, but that
that part inserted alter the eight hundred
dollars, via : in four annual payments
without interest,' was no part of our propo
sition bv our Committee and we lo tiat
agree to th.ttpart; we insist on what tbe
Committee proposed either in cash,
or with lavful interest."
Resolved. 2. That this action on our part
hall be void unless tbe church at Miftlin
town agree to the terms promised by tbe
adjourned meeting of presbytery at Newton
Hamilton on tne if in ui June
A copy of the proceedings of this raeet-
i sent to tbe Mifflin Church and its
was demanded from the 6rst, insisted unon
at every turn, and its repudiation by the
representatives of Mifflin on 17th Decem
ber, can be regarded by well-informed, fair
minded people as the merest pretext.
Another reason given for the order to re
turn to the Chapel was, that when the ex
change of releases was about to ba mide
the Committee or Lost Creek, for the first
time, demanded person s! security for the
$S00. There was nothing wmnr in (hi.
, .......
It was not contrary to the agreement. The
agreement was silent, both as to the time
when the exchange was to take place, and
as to bow the money was to be secured. It
seems to hsve been hastily and imperfectly
drawn as regards the details.. But U is hard
to believe that a dOTerewe of opinion could
arise tvtwoen intelligent men honestly do
siring to carry out the agreement so as to
accon:pliti the object that the parties bad
iu making It.' "it was simply this: Lost
Cre.lt. wss to convey all their real estate in
Miltiintowa for the snm named, and which
the Mirtlin people bad four years fo pay.
Plainly when the deed was handed over the
party accepting it was either to pay or se
cure satisf actorily the price. This is com
mon sense and universal practice, and right
as well. Now how was it here I We were
asked to make a deed for two lots of ground
no money paid down, and no security,
other than a Judgment, tbe lien of which
was limited and restricted to one of tbe
two lots conveyed, and by no means tho
more vaiuaoie ot ine two. I his, in onr
opinion, affurded no socurity at all, and to
nave cioseq on seen terms would have been
faithlessness to the congregation that en
trusted the business to us. No one blames
tbe Committee for not binding themselves
personally for their church debt. But then
did it ocenrto thotn not to ask others to do
what they were unwilling to do. The error
was m asking deed now. The congrega
tion was in possession. If the payments
were met as they matured they ceuld not
have been disturbed. It was time enongh
to gn oct when tbe congregation foiled to
tucot ita obligations. Reasons not brought
to tbe enrface must have existed. Surely
if out good friends, the Committee of Mif
flin, expected us to accept the security of
fered, they mast have counted largely on our
verdancy. If they really desired iu accept
ance, what is to be thought ol their candor j
and good faith in the transaction ? Every
I ona will draw his own inference.

on th lib of Jcne the Committee ol
Mifflin made their report, in which they rec
ommended that the written acreemcnt of
18th May be not ratified. The reason given
was that it did not express tho whole con
tract as they understood it.
Thus it will be seen that both Committees
were dissatisfied with the written agree
ment. Mifflin rejected it ; Lost Creek rati
fled it, but insisted on $390, either in cash
or with lawful interest. The interest ques
tion was distinctly brought to tbe notice of
Mifflin and demanded from the beginning
'o objection was made by Mifflin on that
ground. Mifflin having refused toratily the
agreement Invited the Committee of Pres
bytery to return and make another tnort,
They consented and notified both congrega
tion to meet them on the 13th of tJctooer.
Lost Creek acquiesced and in congrega
tional meeting, held October 11th, re-adopt
ed their action of 30th May, reciting in i
preamble that action, its limitation to the
meeting of Presbytory in June, the request
of Presbytery to meet them in the
chnrch on the 13th, and finally
n,.nlr,J. That the terms as agreed upon
and ratified tv u it our ullimalnm. that we
have no modification to make, and which
we consider very generous, as we claim by
right a much larger um than but we
continue the said term till alter tbo 13ih
Inst.
Here again Lost Creek distinctly asserted
their claim for interest or cash payment, de
claring that the terms as agreed upon and
ratified bn n if oar ultimatum, referring ne-
in tha ratification of the 30th of
ICHUI'J
May, for there was no other ratification.
The rroceedings of this action by Lost
Creek were read at tbe meeting in the brick
church on the 13th October, and o objec
tion taken by Mifflin to the demand for in
terest or cash.
On the following Sabbath Mifflin congre
gation, by unanimou rote, agreed to re
turn to the brick church for puoiic worsnip
every Sabbath upon the pledge given to
them that it they would procure the title
from Lost Creek, aud worship in the old
church, they would net be asked to pay any
part of the repair debt. This debt was the
lion in the way. Relieved of that, the in
terest became an exceedingly small Ihing to
wealthy congregation life Mifflin even in
ft business aspect ; but in a matter affecting
the peace and unity of their church it was
unworthy of consideration. We hive rea
son to belieTe such wa the estimate placed
upon it by the congregation when they so
promptly accepted the offer of reconcilia
tion msde to them. Nor for their follow
ing to tbe Chapel, without tbe privilege of
saying ye or no, have we one woro oi cen
sure. They were not informed or the true
condition of things, and were misled..'
The final vote to wswship in the old church,
coupled as it was and necessarily must be
with. the previous action of Lost Creek, be
