Dear Mr. Allen:

The Session of the Ormewood Park Presbyterian Church in regular
session on September 12, 1966, took action to commend you in your
patience and fortitude in face of the trying and explosive situation
of the past few days. We feel you have conducted yourself in a
Christian manner and exemplified the dignity due the high office you
hold as our mayor.

In the same action there were words of commendation for our police
and fire departments. We were keenly aware of the absence of one of our
elders at the Session meeting, Supt. J. L. Tuggle, and prayer was offered
for you and the other public servants who are endeavoring to maintain

peace and order in troublesome times.

May God continue to keep your spiritual strength equal to the
mental and physical demands of your privilege and responsibility.

J With sincere appreciation,
soe The Session

Ormewood Park Presbyterian Church
