To the Editor of The Evening Star:

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
In your last evenings issue you published
letter on the subject of marriage and
divorce and attributed to the pen of the
Rt Rev. John Williams, presiding bishop
of the church in the United States. The
letter was Tot written by the mcst vener-
axle head of the church in thfs country
but by myself. 1t was not addressed TO
he general convention. ncr yet to the house
of bishops. 1T was written for and pub
Ashed by the Living Church of Chicago.
While l am quite sure The venerable pre-
siding bishop ought to hold the same posi-
ton / hold on the subject, yet / have TO
means of knowing that ne does. And
though he did, IT would not be just or fair
that q letter written by an obscure presby-
ter should appear under the naraa and
sanction of the most distinguished bishop
of the church in the United States.
The error was natural enough, because of
the identity of name, but for Bishop VIII
liam5 sake ! trust you will rectify the
error by the publication of this letter.
