Important Decision Defining the Power Of
Episcopal Parish Registers.

ANNAPOLIS, Nd, June 2l.-The court of
appeals of Maryland has rendered an i'm
portant decision in regard to the vestry act
of the Protestant Episcopal Church. DR..
Thomas II. Brashaw, of st. Margaret's,
Westminster parish, of this state. sued out
writ of mandamus to compel the register of
the parish to enroll him as member Of the
Protestant Episcopal Church in said parish.
The court below dismissed the mandamus.
holding that the registers duties were judi
cial: the court above. in an opinion by Judge
Page, reverses this decision and practically
decides that the duties of the register are
merely ministerial and the sole question to be
decided by the register is, was the applicant

Church?
