DiV1rce Agreement at Last.
Both houses of the Episcopal general
convention at Boston were brought into
agreement on a new divorce law last
week. AS amended this canon provides
for the remarriage of the innocent par
ty in divorce case. but not until one
year ut least after the granting OF the
decree and after the proper eccleSias-
teal authority has given consent. Any
minister may refuse TO remarry Il per
son divorced for the cause of infidelity
while his or her former partner is liv
ing. even after the bishop has decided
that he or she was the innocent party
in such divorce, without subjecting HIM
self to any censure or discipline. 1t
prohibits the administration of the sac
