The next day the brethren went plunging around town trying to buy another site, but nobody had one to sell; and on the following morning the supervisors got an order from the court requiring that meeting-house to be removed from the public street within twenty-four hours.
The brethren were nearly wild about it, and they begged old Brindley to let them run the concern in on his vacant lot temporarily until they could look around.

But Brindley belonged to another denomination, and he said he felt that it would be wrong for him to do anything to help a church that believed false doctrines.

Then they ran the meeting-house out on the turnpike beyond the town, whereupon the turnpike company notified them that its charges would be eight dollars a day for toll.

So they hauled it back again; and while going down the hill it broke loose, plunged through the fence of Dr.Mackey's garden and brought up on top of his asparagus-bed.

He is an Episcopalian, and he sued the meeting for damages; and the sheriff levied upon the meetinghouse.
