Moderator Craig yielded tho chair to ex-
Moderator William C. Roberts and him
self voted "Aye."
Throughout the long debate Of tho
morning, there were many evidences Of
advantage Of the opportunity to arraign
the defendant and shake their fingers
sternly at him and otherwise express ther
condemnation. As one brother expressed
II. "They forgot for the time being that
they wcrs members Of . court of Jesus
Christ" Ii was an interesting spectacle
and sccne never to be forgotten.
The assembly convened at the usual

Dr. Nichols Of St. Louis. and Elder Per-
ishing. they were retired from the ju-
dietary commission in tho case. and Rev.
w. X. Reynolds Of Minnesota and Elder

The main question, "Ssall the appeal by
the New York Presbytery to tho general
assembly be direct. instead OF first going
to tho synod, be entertained ?" was thcn
taken up.
DR.. Keichum Of New Jersey favored
sending the caee hack 10 the synod and
said that at the end Of the debate he would
make motion to that effect.
Elder McDougall referred to certain re-
marks which BrigRs made In his own de-
fense and said that he offered, u the casc

"No," said Briggs, interruptine.
"Ah. I thought co." said McDougali.
ssYou will get the case back 10 the synod
and then you will insist upon ali ths con.
paiiutional rights that you can think Of"
Iho elder continued In bitter strain
and now and then . mursnur Of surprise
swept over the assembly. Briggs asked
for Q moment TO reply to McDoucali.
Amidst Of cries Of 'No" and "Hear him."
Briggs was given one minute and ex-
planned that he had not offered to waive
