ENGLISH REFORMATION.
Part Played 1t by Thomas Cranmer
Archb shop OF Canterbury.

A large and attentive congregation
listened to the second lecture given by
Rev Is shepherd on Cranmer, on
Sunday afternoon. The lecturer began
with the remark that whatever opinions
men may hold concerning the Reforlna-
ton, Roman atholle and Protestant
must agree that the movement was one OF
tran cendant importance The history of
Christendom cannot be studied or COM
pretended properly if that movement De
passed by Thomas Cranmer, Arch
Bishop of Canterbury is a striking Inquire
in thu English church, and Re ormatlon.
Cranmer does not appear as prominent
Character until Cromwell, Earl of Essex.
disappears. But he accomplished great
things when he began. 1t was Cranmer
who gave the cup to the laiety in the
Holy Communion. By his influence
Parliament passed a law allowing the
clergy to marry. He allowed the people
to read the Bible and ordered prayers to
be said in language understood by them.
For time the Reformation in England
was not popular movement. 1t sup
pressed sin and superstition, but did not
arouse enthusiasm. 1t remained for
Mary, daughter of Catherine, by her
spirit of persecution to make the reforma-
ton an assured fact. In that prosecution
Cranmer did not escape. His rank, Dig
nifty, age and service made his obstruction
sure.
Life and honor were promised if he
would recant. But recantation did not
save him. His last hours splendidly re-
deem his name from shame When the
fires were lighted he thrust his right hand
into the flames saying, "this hand hath
offended When Elizabeth assembled the
throne Cranmer's labors bore fruit.
Things were restored to about the state
Cranmer left them.
Two facts OF historic Importance are to
be noted. The spirit of intolerance and
the spirit of resistance to it, which culmi-
mated in the English Revolution.
We have two reminders of Cranmer in
all our churches. The Bible and the
Prayer Book in language the common
people can understand. They are priceless
gifts. We would appreciate them more
were we reminded oftener of their cost.

TO the Editor of the Press:

TO the Editor of the Press:
To correct your report OF the Maine
Press Associations meeting, stating that
my motion to table the resolutions con-
demning the Loud bill WAS defeated by
a vote of Is to l., permit me to say that
this motion was supported by rising
vote of Mr.. Wish of the Argus, Mr..
Laughlin and Mr.. William d. Dow OF tne
Express and Mr.. Rowell of the Adyer-
tiser, making five votes. This Loud bill
which aims to correct the sample copy

paper postage rates, ought certainly to be
amendments, instead of meeting the op-
position of the Maine Press Association.
