Somehow I cannot avoid my first impression, that this is an attempt to force our people to get into line and stay there - or else. Southern Presbyterians have never been noted for their favorable _response to coercive measures, and they are not likely to warm up to this new one. Furthermore, the timing of the proposal is anything but opportune. We have just voted upon the question Of Church Union, and at least one of the parties to the debate desires to forget the unpleasantness still fresh in the minds of the Church, and get down to business. The overture does not promise such a result, but on the contrary is most likely to widen the breach that is already too wide.
