Ask Court To Oust Pastor From Franklin County Church
Six deacons petitioned the Franklin County Circuit Court for an injunction to remove Rev. C. E. Bullar as pastor of the Benton Baptist Church. They allege a split in the congregation between older members and younger supporters over a contested election. The suit claims Bullar organized youth to back his re election after the older members left and refused to recognize a later vote.
