Description
At the meeting of the consistory of the First Reformed Church, Elder Broek was chosen chairman in the absence of Rev. Albertus C. Van Raalte. A member of the congregation was present who requested the lifting of the censure the consistory had placed on him. Further investigation on the part of the consistory was necessary before his request would be granted. The pastor then entered the meeting. Routine matters were dealt with.
