In the place of Henry Potter, deceased, d. ".
lllll: and in the place Of 4. Robinson, deceased,
W. F.. Dubois.
Judicial case No. was then taken m, Dr..
4. q. Hall appearing for the appellant, and
Messrs. Rankin and Miller for the appellee. Mr.
Bliss, at Dr. II Halfs request, was associated with
him As counsel.
The case, in brief, seems to be thnt Abraham
Frazcr, an elder Of the church in Caledonia. u.
T., abscnted himself from the public ordinances
OF the church, inasmuch as he couscicntiouslv
thought himself bound to remain away durin Z
the pastoEatc Of = minister whom he found un-
profitable. On thee hand it was claimed and
on the other denied, that this absenting occur-
red with the knowledge and consent Of the
Session,
The reading Of the various papers in that case
aud the arguments Of the parties, occupied the
remainder Of the day.
There will be very little, if anything more of
general interest, transacted during the rest OF
the session. Consequently, you need not ex-
pecs TO hear ANYTHING more from ME unless
something unexpected transpises. The Assem-
bly, will probably adjourn tomorrow evening,
although, owing to the multiplicity Of minor
matters, it may not be able to complete them all
by that time. II.
