We Your Legal
Committee, beg to report as follows: Owing to the fact that the
membership of Tracy City C.P. Church "Warren Memorial: have
gone to other churches or at least ceased to be active Cumberland
Presbyterians, and the church property going to destruction, being
the result of tramps and crap shooters and there being no hope
of rebuilding an active membership, we your Committee, with these
facts in view, have bargained and sold such property to E. C.
Norvell for the consideration of $500.00 such action in its entirity
subject to the ratification of Presbytery.
We therefore
recommend that the Presbytery ratify such action on our part and
empower us to make deed for same.

We your Legal
Committee beg leave to report as follows:
Your
legal committee having previously by and with the support of Presbytery
sold to Mr. E. C. Norvell the Tracy City Church property the same
having long ago been abandoned but Rev.
W. E. Tillett having appealed from the action of the Presbytery
to the Synod and because of some technical irregularities in the
way in which the same was brought to Presbytery the Synod refered
the matter back to Presbytery for further action.
In
view of the same conditions that prompted the action before we
still offer to this Presbytery, viz: that the church is abandon;
nor organization, no eldership, deacons, nor active members; no
report to Presbytery nor dues for a number of years; the house
fast decaying and having been in the past having been used for
picture shows and gambling resorts and not long ago came very
near being destroyed by fire.
We would therefore
recommend that this Presbytery, first, declare Tracy City or Warrens
Memorial a vacant field an abandon church.
That
this Presbytery, Sec, reaffirm its former action with regard to
its sale to E. C. Norvell.
Dan T. Smart, E. C.
Crawford, Rev.
S. T. Byars.
The Legal Committee's duplicate
was read and adopted.
