Again — the decision of '39, by which the New School referred the subject to the lower courts, has created a schism in that body — a schism allowed by the very reference. Some of the Presbyteries in the New School body, after that reference, passed resolutions excluding slave-holders from their pulpits and communion. The New School As- sembly of '40 requested those bodies to rescind those res- olutions — thus, in fact, adopting the docti'ine of our As- semhly, that the holding of slaves is not ...a bar to christian fellowship.
