THE BISHOP of EXETER v. SHORE
TO THE EDITOR OF TILE SUN.
Sin,—With this letter I send you a few extracts from
the Forms of Service for Ordering Deacons and Priests.
Dcei it not appear from them that such ordination
gives merely a conditional authority ? viz.---
Ist. That an ordained deacon or priest is only placed
in a state of qualification to hold a bishop's license to
perform the functions of those offices.
2d. That, as an ordained deacon or priest, he is not
entitled to perform the functions of those offices in an/
case, if he be not possessed of such license ; so, as
matter of course, a marriage pretended to be solo:010d
by an ordained priest not having a license to perfcan
the functions of such offices is voidable.
3d. That the ordination vow is a covenant which
rune
only during the term of a license, and that during fu
time as an ordained person is without such license he
nolf upiseopal jurisdiction. den
such In the case, how could Mr. Shore be under
episcopal jurisdiction of the Bishop of Exeter after4.P3
had withdrawn his license from Mr. S., and be (Mr' To
afterwards did not attempt to perform the functions, c
deacon or priest in a consecrated church or an ePsca-
pally-licensed chapel ?
The ordination services of deacon and priestt!g:ail-
part and parcel of an Act of Parliament, may be
firmed by a court of common law ; and it appears W.--
that the parson and the attorney are on the same fool:
Thus, the young lawyer, after having received his eerild,
cols of qualification from the examiners, and been at,
mated by the court., cannot legally practise as an attai
ney until he has obtained a license, duly stamped; s1)0,
the young ordained parson cannot legally Pract
as a deacon or priest until he has obtained his lieen6t;
also duly stamped ; and neither of these parties f'sh,
hereafter practise when their licenses are either wl,Lhe
drawn or not renewed, according to circumstances/
licenses being the only authority for exercising
A'Liiit
functions of each office in both cases.—l am, Sir, go
