My great-great-grandfather, Lincoln Clark, was a commissioner to the Old School GA in the 1850s when it met in the same city (I believe St. Louis) as the New School GA, and he was a fraternal delegate from OS to NS. He took some pride in that assignment (his correspondence is at the Huntington Library), and he was a good choice: an attorney from Massachusetts who had served as attorney general of Alabama and on that young state's supreme court before moving on to Iowa (to avoid raising his children in a slave-holding society) and serving a term in Congress. He had an open and balanced mind. I do not think he would be happy with the current tensions within the PC(USA), but he would believe that in God's own time reconciliation and a recognition of the richness of diversity would return.
