A STUPID sentence In the report OF thu
church congress at Boston has carried tn,
impression to some that Bishop Hall ha
been recalled to England. 1t is hardl,
neces 'ary to contradict 30 absurd report
In the first place, Bishop Hall cannot be re
called, for there is no power to recall him
He is an American ci izsn, and an Ameri
can clergyman. He cannot be re called b,
the st. Johns Brotherhood, for he is n,
; longer a member Of the Brotherhood
Bishop Hall is here to stay. There is m
more patriotic American than he.
