TO MR. ALDERMAWDOV

n the statement made byTou at tt

motiorifor the " the appointment of corn missi
the, churches of St. Paul and St.-john," you are
tohave-said that in those churches you " thm

hat it was high time the

pruning

eformer should be stretched towards theca."
These remarks, grave and unqualified as they are, if they
mean anZting at all, mean one or other of two thins,
either that there has been gross mismanagement or-else
criminal delinquency on the part of those official
nected -with those churche
=lt is

either our intention •or desire to become the
apologists of abuses in the expenditure of churches-where
those abuses are found to exist, but, as wardens ,Of St.
John's, we are desirous, as far as that church is concerned,
that the public should knowthelcal " facts" of the case,
in order the oetter to judge of the amount of credit to
which: your sweeping assertions•are entitled.
Inorder to form a proper estimate of the "excessive
expenditure" (as Mr. Bighorn terms it) of St..; Rim's,
it is necessary to examine its amount relatively with that
of the other churches under the control of the-corpora-
tion and parish, and subjoined is a statement of Ithe last
year's expenditure of each, after deducting scat rent:
as taken from the last official and published reports
