Church of Cedarville, Ohio. - he “ H eron pa r ty ;” Brief Account of the Bullion* Contro­ versy Which Createdthe Free Associate Church. - ; Briefly, the history of the ‘‘Heron 5 iirty" or Free Associate Church is old in the tollowing sketch: In the early history of the Associate Church, after the'resignation o f ■'Hr. John Anderson, who whs the first |professor of theology in the. oldest theological seminary in America, com siderable difficulty was experienced in getting suitable instructors for the theological -students, .because' every |>ne who was qualified Was engaged as pastor. , - \ The students o f .that d a y ,were tin­ ier the necessity of pursuing sLudies |under some pastor selected' by the ’resbytery, and to ' take, up thei* abode in the bounds of the congrega­ tion, sometimes with, the family of :tbe pastor In accord with this cus- Jtoip the Presbytery of Cambridge on |October 13, 1826, appointed Bev< Uexauder Bullions to superintend the itudies <if tbo theologms of the ensfc- arn part of the church, ; A t that time )r Bullions was ap educator-of Some tate, behaving been connected with |h e Academy of Cambridge, N . Y ., for oyer-40 years, and his son, Peter bullions, was the presiding genius Of I [the famous classical- Academy at Al­ bany, N, y . , and Was the author ofi a series of Greek and Latin tex t books that were very popular in all .classical schools for many years. , In 1828 H r, .A. Bullions had two theological students under his diree tion, when oh account of some diffi­ culty between theni and their instruct* jor, they refused to attend his recita­ tions. ’In his effort to compel ilienr to recite they rebelled aud appealed to t h e : Fresbytery, and he protested against their appeal and brought in a [libel against tile students. The Pres" Sbytery sustained the students, and D r :BulIions appealed to Synod. That body refused to sustain part of the Presbytery’s action and modified other ;parts, but no t without widening the | breach Which the action wus intended [to -lessen. The,controversy became :warmer, protests and appeals became [morenumerous, charges and counter charges grew more severe and parlies took decided stands on each side or the question until Presbytery suspend* cd Dr. Bullions in 1834, From this decision no less than ten protests and appeals were scot up to the next meeting of Synod, and that body appointed a commission to ad­ judicate the affair. The commission decided that Presbytery bad been tori severe in its judgment and ordered ;that Hr, Bullions be rebuked rndyr a (id that his suspension should be re­ moved a t the end of two months. This instruction Was followed, bu t it! did not quiet the matter. The old difficulty came up again, in a few months and in a more serious shape, and Dr. Bullions was led to say some very severe things against those who Were presdng the suit against him* For these utterance* he was summa­ rily suspended In 1837 by Cambridge Presbytery, A large majority of Ids congreg* lion at i ambridge sympathised with him and disregarded the sentence of the majority o f Presbytery.' The neighboring Presbytery of Vermont, where many o f l)r, Bullion*’ warm friends and admirer# lived, took tbs case up In review and restored him .to the ministry. Fo r this act the Synod declaied that Presbytery (Vef- Albany Presbytery, -the minority Of Oiunbridge Presbytery hnd tbq bus pended Presbytery of Vermont met in Cambridge and organized a Synod to be known.as the “ Associate Synod of North America,” They were pom monly known as the “ BullioniteS,” irom the name of the m«U over whom the controversy arose. This body, though small, had some of the most brilliant literary, and classical lights of America among", its membership and as a church grew rapidly and prospered,, ’ , ^ Rev". H, H. Blair, who, a t thatr time, was the pastor of a church in Now York, which was the largest congregation in the history of the old Associate Church, having nearly 1QQ0 members, bad beeu tinder Dr. Bul­ lions’ -instruction^ns a classical teacher,’ and he very naturally sympathized with bis former and np st Excellent instructor. Being a man,of wonder­ ful eloquence he made an impassioned appeal fo r his-old friend on the floor of the Bynod. For hfs utterances’and expressed sympathy for the" accused he too Was suspended. After his sus­ pension be conuected with the “ Bul- jioidtes.” .While under' suspension fie paid,.a visit to the West, and preached in oihor churches as occasion offered, On this tour he preached pne-, week day iu the Ctesar’s Creek Associate; church which stood.a few miles northwest of Jamestown. Rev. Andrew Heron, who was the ‘pastor, was present and heard-him preach. For. this breach of - the law of “ occa­ sional, hearing,” which did not allow attendance’ upon, the divine services conducted by other denominations, Dr.. Heron was tried aud, because ho would tiot acknowledge that his act waB- sinful, was suspended by the Associate Presbytery of-Miami, on Ju n e ;2 1 ,1842. Among Mr, Heron’s friends were a majority of his own congregation and Rev. George M. Hull, pastor of Sugar Creek Associate church near Bell brook, with a largo majority of bis congregation Fo r Mr. Hall’s sym­ pathy with Air. Heron he too was suspended, and thereupon these -two p.ifitors in 1843 organized themselves into what they denominated the “ Free Associate’ Presbytery, but they were commonly known as the .-“ Heron party /’ , In a year or two Mr. Hall went back to bis old church connec­ tion, and Mr. Hetou and his congre­ gation were left alone. A fter constd- ering whether they should connect their organization with the “ Bullion* ites” or join with the Associate Re­ formed church, they finally decided to join the latter, although Mr Heron stated that he would much prefer tlm first named connection. The Cedar ville congregation being the most con ■; vo^ently situated, the greater nUin ber ot them connected with this or* gunizition ,and Mr. Heron was re* ceived by the Springfield Presbytery, The Associate Presbytery o f Miami regarded this reception o f exscinded members a» a gross breach o f Courtesy, and in retaliation therefor refused to continue tlm negotiations for union of the two denominations, Which bad been iu progress for Some time with flattering prospects. The "Heron party” were never In organic Union with the “Dillliouites.” yet they Were sometimes regarded and it is sometimes staited tha t they; were. The “Bui Iionites” continued their orgriftizitioD, and increased rap idly in numbers and influence until 1854'when they united With the old Associate Church, after negotiations carried on for about five years looking to that end.
