Excerpt from Minutes of the Tenth Annual Session of the Beulah Baptist Association: Held With the First Baptist Church, Conway, Northampton County, N. C., October 8th, 9th, 10th, 1912 The Association met promptly at 9 O'clock a. M. De votional exercises were conducted by Revs. F. W. Jacobs and W. Haithcock. Hymn sung 718. First di vison of Psalms was read, prayer led by Rev. Harrison. Next hymn sung was 674. The minutes of the previous afternoon session were read and approved. Rev. Black nall now took up the Topic, Do deacons have a right to baptize and administer the Lord's Supper, Rev. Blac.;nall plainly showed by the Bible that the deacon had no right to baptize and administer the Lord's Sup per, that his work consisted of the temporal affairs of the church only. Rev. W. T. Askew claimed that the deacons, as servants for the pastor, could baptize and administer the Lord's Supper under the direction of their pastor. God made the preacher, and the preacher made the deacon. Revs. Thompson, Ivey and others concurred with the argument supported by the other speakers. The discussion became spirited with some dissension, but the deacons were not permitted the privilege to baptize and administer the Lord's Supper.
