A Card from Bishop Cummins,

From the Louisville Courier-Journal.
need scarcely say to my friends
that the statement made IN a news
item in your paper of this morning
that / had charged, in a sermon in
Trinity Church, Chicago, on July 4,
that "the present troubles in the
Episcopal Church were owing to the
Introduction of Cathedral worship" I"
is entirely without foundation. The
subject of Cathedral worship never
entered my mind upon the OCCASION
charged the present troubles in the
Protestant Episcopal Church to fan
more serious causes-tO the efforts
made to reintrOduee doctrines and
rites into the church which were
utterly discarded and rejected by the
Reformers of the sixteenth century
errors and corrurfions from which the
church was purified at the cost OF
untold suffering of our Protestant
forefathers. This is all nay OfIense,
and for this the Protestant Episcopal
Bishop of Illinois asks the vestry OF
Trinity Church, Chicago, nay old and
beloved fiOck, to exclude me from
their pulpit. 1t is surely a sad omen
for the future of the Episcopal Church
in the West that an utterance like the
above in one Of her pulpits should be
met by such a spirit. History viii
yet righteously record who were the
authors of our troubles, the Protest
ants in the Episcopal Church, or those
who ceaselessly seek to unprotestant-
ize the church Of their fathers.

Assistant Bishop of Kentucky.
