was , by &od * B bleBsing , allayed . Of the differottt observances to which you have objected , one only appeared to me to be distinctly an imitation of the practice of toe Clurch of Borne f and that has been discontinued at my _ request . With respect to the general charge brought against Mr . Liddell , of Topery , 1 consider it to be wholly without foundation . I have entire confidence io . the firmness of Mr . LiddelTs attachment fco the doctrines and order of our reformed church , and I feel assured that , as be has not been accused of departing from the former In his teaching , so he weald not knowingly violate the latter in his practices . I may differ from hun as to the expediency of certain observances , and
their entire suitableness to the ordinary parochial worship ; but I cannot interfercto forbid that which is not ilkgal , nor ami disposed to restrict the discretion of a clergyman in adopting , -within the limits allowed ly law , that form of celebrating Divine service which is most acceptable to the greaif majority of 13 s congregation . With respect to the other points mentioned in the resolution which was presented to me by the deputation , % nave only to refer you to my letter of the 28 th . of March . "Iaai your obedient servant , " Mr . Q . ^ sjertou * "C . J . London . Is anybody-going , to take a ( s stand" anywhere , and tty © tochiflions-with the Bishop and the incumbent ?
