Light at Last.

Mr. Editor, please do me the favor of
publishing the following extract from
the Bishopof Massachusetts annual Con-
vention address. The Bishop was talking
about unauthorized additions the
pmyer-book, or service of the Church
II subject that very much interests quite
a number of your readers.
Unauthorized addition" priests have
been sent here several times in the past,
and have always been found to be great
disturbers of the peace of the Church
Happily we have no such trouble now,
and hope we never shall have again.
But the Bishop of Massachusetts says:
again, why should we, in that almost
habit of free dealing with rubrics which
has grown out of our loose views con-
corning shortened services, needlessly
override the plain requirement of the
rubric, which says, Then shall the
priest first receive the communion in
both kinds himself, and proceed to de-
liver the same to the people also in or.
der, into their hdInls -!
lie says, further: But my present
point is, that he who does not deliver
the chalicc into the hands of the peo-
pie. but only presses it to their lips,
their hands not touching it, crrs just AS
he would do who should deliver the
bread into the mouth, not the hands, of
the people"
have always believed the law to be
as stated above by the Bishop Of Massa-
chusctts, and have so contended. am
n law-abiding man. There is not more
loyal and obedient churchman in the
diocese of Tennessee than am but |
want my legal rights don't ask for
more, and mW not submit to less. There
fore, if the Bishop of Massachusetts, is
wrong i want somebody to show it.
Perhaps the Bishop of Tennessee can
do it. This is a question that is dis
turbing great many of his people, and
they would be glad to have it settled
once for all. j. Z. SHAPARD.
