Having just read your report of the eel
cbratiou in St. Paul's church, Burlington on
the 3lst ult., notice that the preacher is
made to say that "lor five years before and
five after" Bishop Griswold's clnsccration'
'thc conventions consisted of only two cler-
gymen AID eight lawyers :"
Well, if ii were So, the sequel shows that
the lawyers could not have been of the sort
that "shut up the kingdom of Heaven
against mem" and as their profession indi-
Gates that they were men that could under
stand evidence, do not see that the chnrch
is harmed 10y the report. Furthermore as
there i, no way in which the lawyers could
have been injured by their interest in that
kingdom it seems pity to spoil the story.
But for the sake of truth, it may he welto

and that the preachers words were eight
