                         Biblical Recorder
                   and Journal of Passing Events
                 Edenton, Saturday, January 4, 1834

The Neuse Baptist Association held its annual session at Fort Barnwell
Chapel, Craven County, on the 19th, 20th, and 21st of October last. The
introductory discourse was delivered by Elder Jacob Grigg, Saml. Simpson
was chosen Moderator, Wm. P. Biddle Clerk, and Chas. Kelly Assistant
Clerk. This body comprises 23 Churches 8 of which only were represented.
The additions of members to those which have made returns are small.
Among the measures adopted on the occassion were the following:

Resolved, That the Association recommend to the individual members of
this body and all their friends, the Baptist Interpreter and the Biblical
Recorder published by brother Meredith of Edenton.

Whereas, Abraham Congleton, John P. Dunn and William Clark, have embraced,
and are now in the habit of preaching doctrines which are deemed not only
heretical, but subversive of the peace and best interests of our Churches
viz: the fundamental views of a certain Mr. Campbell; it is therefore

Resolved, That the Churches connected with this body are recommended to
exclude from their pulpits, and from their Churches the above named 
individuals, and all others professing the same and similar sentiments.
