Charges Against Irvine.
May 7, therefore, say to you that this
man was deposed nearly two years ago for
gross immortality and for lewd and lasciv-
ious conduct with women.
That no one Of the questions which he
tries to make capital Of was ever men,
toned or referred to in his trial, but both
the committee of inquiry and the court
found such horrible condition at Hunt
ingdon that they confined themselves en-
tirely to the evidence there abundantly
given.
That Irvine has been thirty years in
the ministry, and twenty of those years
has been under the ban OF ecclesiastical
discipline
That he has been suspenden once, adj
monshed once in your diocese, and in
hibited and made to leave repeatedly.
That eight bishops have grave charges
against him.
That the venerable bishop of Quincy
wrote me on his deathbed that Irvine had
outraged two girls of his city.
That there is no foundation whatever
for his allegation that bishops who know
him we'll had any dream of casting any
reflection our diocese or myself, or had
| any reference whatever to him In their
earnest advocacy of a court OF appeal.
His case is one out Of fifteen or twenty
all alike, that emphasize the need Of such
| a court.

| woman being communicated and then
restored by me is baseless the woman
having brought from Philadelphia (St..
Clements) letter conmendatory OF
Huntingdon, as the priest there $50 Irvine

record would hide his face with shame.

as he heaps upon me, but confess 1t has
not greatly disturbed me, nor have lost

About 1000 plants are required TO

During the blossoming season many
