A very brief cow ersaton enabled me to learn
that Mr.. Dudgeon came to the parish on his
marriage, about four-and-twenty years before,
and neither he nor his wife had ever left it since.
They had no neighbors, and only six parish
toner's of their own persuasion. The church
was about mile off, and not easily approached
in bad weather. 1t seemed, too, that the bishop
and Mr.. ID. were always at war. The diocesan

none were hardy enough to follow him into his
fastness, he was suffered to do what he pleased,
and actually abandoned as oReof those hope

fallen; abont couple of years back, had almost
released the bishop from his difficulty.
