Exonerated.
Rev. W. P. Fife has been exoner
ated by a committee of investigation
as follows :
Whereas, Rumors have been put
afloat here and elsewhere, intended
to affect the Christian character and
usefulness of the Evangelist W. P.
Fife just upon the eve of the meet
ings in this city, which has been done
by evil and designing persons ; and,
whereas, the committee having in
charge the said meeting, have (in
two meetings) had a number of letters
and testimony exonerating him from
all such charges, and his open and
full information of the circumstances
in the case, corroborated by a gentle
man in person, who knows all the
parties ; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That we are clearly of
the opinion that the charges and
rumors ae wholly without the
slightest foundation, and we shall
hold up his hands, by our prayers.
and bid him God speed in the good
work, not only here, but wherever his
lot may be cast, in the Master's work
