PnIScEss ANaE, June 5.--Tha 2ist nm
nual convention of the Protestant Epis-
copal Diocese of Eastcn met in st.
Andrews Church to-day at 1890 o'clock.
Morning prayer was said by the Rev.John
Martin, the Rev. j. W. Oheslsy and the
Rev. DIR. j. o. Barton, the Rev. DR.. T.
P. Barber reading the ante-communion
service. The ReV. DR.. Thomas Duncan
preached the sermon. Bishop Adams,
assisted by the Rev. Fl. b. Martin, rector
of st. Andrews, celebrated the holy
communion. Twenty. five ministers and
"a lay delegates are present. The Rev.
j. A. Mitchell was elected secretary OF
the convention; with William 8. Walker
assistant.
The Rev. w. M. Green and the Rev.
W. NJ. Munford conducted the evening
services. At to-night's session Bishop
Adams read his address, On eloquent one,
which was fayorsbly received by the
large congregation. In it he reviewed
the work done in the diocese during the
past year. He pointed out the duty of
the people of the church and showed
that the traditional prejudices against the
church are passing away. The people OF
the diocese, he said, had reason to hope
for more success during the coming year
than in the past. This diocese, he added,
is surrounded by religious bodies that are
not ashamed to speak out their faith, and
the spiinging up of self-constituted min
listers is pernicious liberty and tends to
disorganized Christianity. The mis-.
sionary work in the diocese has been
greatly helped by the parishes, and the
bishop urged the ministers 10 collect
sums for the clergy relief fund, as the
diocese is anxious to help those who
have worked for 1t. The Home fcr
Friepdless Children and the Ladies'
Auxiliary Society have done good work.
Bishop Adams delivered feeling eulogies
on Bishops Harris and Wells and DIR. 1. L.
Adkins. Bishop Adams has confirmed
293 persons during the year.
The following deans have been ap-
pointed: The Rev. W. Schouler, FIRST
convocation; the Rev. 7. P. Barber, D.

At Squire Smiths office on Wednesday
the rental case of Charles Bowker of
Philadelphia VS.. Henry d. Holt of this
city, came up. Percy Bright, ESD, OF
Philadelphia represented Bowker, and
Francis Hoifscker, Jr., Esq, represented
Defendant Holt. Bowker rented house
of Holt and paid him the rent in ed.
vance from March, 1883, to March, 1889.
In the fall, about October last, Sheriff
Lambson levied on the house to satisfy a
mortgage, and the property was sold.
Bowker was told by parties he would
have to pay two rents under the new
circumstances. He went to Philadelphia
Just before the sale. This he did of his
own accord leaving the premises vacant.
Bowker then brought suit against Holt to
recover $7S.I9, amount of rent he was
out from date of sale of the house to
March, 1889. Squire Smith decided in
costs for Holt 80 that Bowher was non
suited and had to pay costs.

oAKD FROM MR. NORTON.
NE Gives Hrs Version OF The Occux-
renee of Tuesday Night.

Editor Egerg Egening' 1t was with
great surprise that read the article in
your paper yesterday wherein my name
is mentioned in connection with that OF
Fl. E Sherwood. I will say the article is
false in every particular. so far as my
name is concerned. That 1 was assaulted
It is true, but not in the manner or to
the extent you say, as was on Market
street that same evening until ii O'Clock
and can now be found In my store at
tending to business as usual. did not
call in any doctor, but it seems to me
that some one wanted little cheap
notoriety. You will please let me state
the facts in the case. Your article says
that MIR. Sherwood and myself never
met. would say that 1t is a we'll known
fact that Mr.. Sherwood aud have known
each other for the past 18 years. In re-
gard to my visits to his house IL was on
his invitations, as / have his letters to
prove. would also say that for the
last year did not visit his house more
than three times, and on two of those
occasions MIR. Sherwood was there him
self, and it has been about six months
since my last visit, and not seven weeks
as is stated in the article in your paper.
Now, as regards the trouble on Tues
day evening. Some two or three years
ago loaned Mr.. Sherwood, at his own
request, $50, for which he gave me his
note at 60 days. In looking over some
papers the other day came across this
note, and thinking it was about time it
was paid, wrote Mr.. Sherwood to say
that thought 1t time II was paid, and II
he did not pay it would see MIR. Il. II.
Garter in regard TO it. Mr.. Sherwood re-
neiyed the letter, and on Tuesday evening
laid in wait for me on Taylor street be-
tween Pine and Lombard. This was
about O'Clock. When came up to him
he (Sherwood) said, "Whst do you mean
by sending me that letter ?" replied,
81 meant Just what it said" He then
said, ''Have not alweys treated you like
gentleman ?" l answered Eyes. Have
Inot donothe same by youS" A few more
words passed between us and told him
had not the time just then TO talk to him,
and did not want to make a public
scene or did not care to disgrace myself
on the street. attempted to pass on
when he struck at me. then left him
and went along Pine street to Seventh
and ss l approached Lombard street,
Sherwood, who had crossed the lots, came
from around the corner of the houses on
Seventh street and without word struck

then went up town. These are the facts
in the case ~ can prove by witnesses.
