trouble in the Church of the Holy Trim

lieved, end in the resignation of the
rector, Rev. John Bolton. who has been

asipated by the rector removing from
the church the two rear rows of pews,
which he said were used only by dis
orderly persons. This was done without
knowledge of the vestry and when these
officials heard of it they passed reso-
luton ordering them back, the cost at
tending the work to be taken from the
rector's salary. During the service last
