Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from First Reformed Presbyterian Church Case: Commonwealth, Ex Rel; Gordon, Et Al Vs; Williams, Et Al;; A History of the Case, the Pleadings, the Arguments of the Counsel for the Defendants, and the Charge of Mr. Justice Williams The First Reformed Presbyterian Congregation in the City of Philadelphia, was organized about the year 1800, incorporated on 19th March, 1816, under the Act of 6th April, 1791, and has from its organization been connected with the Reformed Presbyterian Church. Since 1854 the congregation has occupied a church building situate on the East side of Broad Street, below Spruce Street, which building had been erected at a cost of $65,720.24, $12,883.25 of which had been realized from the sale of another church formerly owned by the congregation, and more than $47,000 of which had been contributed by those who now adhere to the Defendants in the suit, or was collected by them from their friends without the congregation. In 1868, on the first Monday of January, the charter day for the election of Trustees, there were two tickets in the field, the one having the names of Messrs. Ray, Graham, Johnston, Kerr, Williams, Walker, and McBride, representing the Defendants´ party, and the other, having the names of Messrs. Young, Biggerstaff, Taylor, Gordon, and James Stewart, representing the Relators´ party, together with Messrs. Graham and Johnston, who were therefore, nominated by both parties. As each voter deposited his ballot, he gave his name to the Tellers, who noted it. "At the conclusion of the balloting, and previous to the report of the Tellers, it was on motion ordered that the votes polled remain in the custody of the Tellers until the lists of the parties voting be submitted to the Session and Board of Trustees for their examination, in order to ascertain whether all the votes cast were legal, protests against certain votes having been entered during the progress of the balloting, and no certificates of election to be given until it had been ascertained that no illegal votes had been cast. Several other motions were offered touching the question, but were afterwards withdrawn. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
