DR., DALTON EXPLAINS.
Rev. Dr.. william, and the Confessional,

To the Editor Of the Press:
My attention has been called to re-
port, said to have been widely circulated,
that had made statement affecting
the moral character of Rev. Pelham Will
llams, ID. D., appointed by Bishop Nicely
as special preacher during Lent.
Whereas the Statement alluded to was
of the fact that it was Dr. Williams who
years ago created a great sensation by
setting up a Confessional in the Church
of the Messiah, Boston, and afterwards
in Brooklyn, N. Y, parish, causing a
good deal of scandal to the Church in
both cases.
The Confessional being an 1nstitu.
tion properly belonging to the Roman
Catholic Church, strange that some of
the clergy of a Protestant church should
be disposed to urge it upon the laity,
none of whom, so far as know, have
ever of themselves desired it.
