PROTESTANT EPISCOPAL MrsSoMER
~.
the first place, objected to protestant Eiscopav
because IL Is distinctly Romish tlagghterl III we
nave authority TO Judge we do not protest, we act
When this word was first used IL was precisely In
TINS manner III the pUpacy at that time had given
respectful consideration 10 the protest their supre-
macy would have continued I'm Germany 10 ihis
DAY. The words "Protestant Epscopaln are Romish
and wholly Romish. There is no reason why the
church should call itself Episcopal because some
othefS nave called themselves Presbyter1ans. HIS
second objection was that the title "Protestant
EplScopaF' is false. When did the Church OF Eng
iand ever protest? When the question arose In
England the mother church did not protest She
turned the intruder out OF doors A much greater
oblection TO the title Is its ineXpediency. During
the last year and half he had been labor1ng In a
httle mission In the diocese OF Springfield The
people there are tired OF sectarianism, OF popular
rellgionism Who Is gathering them In? Not the
church, but Rome
Rev. DR.. Thrail was at this point interrupted by
motion OF Dr. Huntington. OF Massachusetts that
the house should go In committee OF the whole
chair
The committee resumed consideration Of clause
