Resolutions Adopted On Reverend Hewitt Departure

At a congregational meeting the First Presbyterian church passed resolutions endorsing the resignation of Rev. J. D. Hewitt after nine years of service. The motion noted his faithful ministry, requested he step down for the sake of the church, and commended him to God. The report also mentions a Memorial Day observance and local discussions of street railway franchise changes involving Wichita companies and city governance. Captain Carey’s arrival in Wichita is noted along with family updates and local civic notes.
