THE CAROLINIAN RALEIGH, N. C.. SATURDAY. MARCH 21. 1944 2 Our Church Torn Asunder, Rocky ML Members Say BY J. B. HARREN ROCKY MOUNT Soma 1M dissenting members of Mt. Zion Baptist Church, who represent an average of >7 pwura active service In the church, are claiming that their church has been tom asun der and fraught with much strife because of what they term “dic tatorial power" of the Rev. Oeorge w. Dudley, who was hired as min ister In lAM when he came from M«hn .M leaser officer* of the church, who had boon dtemtaasd from their official position* ae dea cons, trustees etc. signed a rcaaest In January for an In jpliettaa which restrained the mv. Dudley from the Ml. Zion Baptist pulpit and church grounds for two weeks, after Which It was dissolved hy Judge Walter Bone In Edge corn he County court. This dissatisfaction st Mt. Elo/i Baptist stems front s culmination of disagreement between the on: third of the total membership (150 of the 365 adults. There are 100 children) and pastor Dudley in August. 1063. It was then that Dudley's ministerial relations were allegedly voted terminated by the membership attending aj regular conference meeting, sc-: cording to James Dnvts, president of a group calling themselvee “The Mt Zion first Baptist { Church Members In Dissent.” Davis has held membership st Mt. Zion It years. Other long-tons members and former officers Included In the dissident group leading the attack an Dudley's alleged dictatorial administration are: W. D. Mclntyre, former fin ance chairman, n member 41 year; R. C. day. Sr. farmer chairman of dcorona, member more than fifty yean; and Madison F. Wilson, another finance chairmen end mem ber 25 years. A February 13 story In thp local dally stated the complaint which brought the restraining order al leged that Dudley . . usurped the power of the board of dea-! cons and the trustees. . . . that he condemned some members from the pulpit, end that he was spend ing church money without autho * rlratlon". and was threatening further Involvement of the church In ddbt. Dudley won release from the in junction by presenting some 235 affidavits as against 152 againat him seeking his disbarment from the ohureh. Dudley attempted to bolster hi* case with affidavits from several city officials as to their personal knowledge of his integrity, along with five mmlatora' statements. Opposing forces point out. how ever, that the prominent persons had. po first-hand knowledge of Mr, Dudley's Inner relationship with his pastorate. Interestingly enough. It te noted the affiants brand as “false'' the statement tn the press that 14 men “fired" Dud ley, but my they represented the 150 affidavit signatories. Thrr further contend that, .Contrary to press reports, more than twenty members wife present during the regu lar August 51, 194! dismissal conference presided over by Dudley. The aggrieved members say the Rev. Dudley called another meet ing October 38, 1943. purportedly to make plans for church anni versary program, quickly dismiss ing same so some could attend s funeral. Davis and his committee steadfastly maintain that Dudley permitted members who tarried to bring up the question of hta prior dismissal vote of Aug. 31 and semroiv quickly motioned that the post or be “voted bock In"; and jhat s how a number of Junior m others helped In out-rotlng the adults to reenstvte the previously dismiss -d pastor, by a 80 to 35! vote of members present and vot ing • Then, “on November 30. 1983. at * regular conference, all offi cers." trustees and the chairman of the finance committee were dis missed for one week", says Mcln tyre. Wilson Oay and Davis, af ter which “a conference was call ed Vo place back the one* the wanted It is further noted that since January 1958—a hen Dudley as sumed pastorate there have been five finance chairmen at Mt.
