January 2nd 1813

Saturday January the 2nd AD 1813 at a called Church Meeting at the Big Spring with helps called in. Present Elders Frestoe, Moffit, & Hendren, also Brother Thomas Buck & B. Daniel Clow. After Praise and Prayer entered into business as follows Viz: Elder Fristoe chosen as Moderator. B. J. Koontz laid his complaint before the Church and the Church replyed (replied) to it. B. Koontz acknowledged his error in faith brought against him whereas difficulties have arisen in the Church at the Big Spring concerning some apparent contradictory expressions of Elder Koontz's. It is resolved therefore that it is the opinion of this Church that the expressions were the effects of infirmity and that we believe him to be an honest sabourner (?) in the Gospel and a man of veracity and truth in his general character. This being done the petition came forward, the voice of the Church taken, and found unanimously in favor of granting it the branch of this Church commonly assembled at Mill Run Meeting House are dismissed from us. Brother Koontz's charge against Brother A. Spidler (Spitler) amounted to nothing and are finally settled. The bounds of the Big Spring Church is as high as the furnace, the Brethren on either side are at liberty to join what Church they please. Adjourned
