DEFENDS DIR. CRAPSEY
LETTER FROM Mr.. LOW.
Bei'eUes IN the Spiritual Interpreta-
ton of the Creed.

EN-Mayor Seth Low. a layrnan OF the Episcopal
Ohuren' mas taken the part OF the Rev. Dr. Alger-
non . CTapsey. rector OF 81. Andrews Church
t'ochester' whose trial for heresy will begin
Aprh II IN the Diocese OF Western New York.
Edward NJ Shepard, OF this city. and Congressman
J. Breck Perkins OF Rochester. VIII defend Dr.
crapsey counsel
Mr.. Low. in letter to The Churchman'' OF this
week. says that the trial Of DIT Crapsey for heresy
Is an affair OF more than individual Importance.
Il is the presentment OF a Of 'mutitudinous
service TO brought to trial for opinions sake
because II is conended that his Interpretation of
tne ereedsh not being literal Is inadmissihle on
tne part Of minister Of the Protestant Episcopal
Church"
He saws that the Church is unuuestionably within
its rights in passing Judgment Or. Crapsey's
utIerances, but IN doing so II will pass judgment
on itself Continuing he says that the American
thureh numbers among it's membership a large
hoay OF people who accept their beliefs the
authority Of the Church, but II also includes an
equally large body who hold the right Of private
judgment as 10 everything they are called on to
believe
He says further:
AL The presentment OF Dr. Crapsey seems to raise
sibls qGE5t9n IN as challenging manner as pos
Pgeensfve character for DR. crapsey is being pre-
him. mas :"
There ought 10 be room enough IN the ministry
or the Church. Mr. Low says, for any one to whom
the creed is the historic form Of making the con-
fesson that St Peter made: 7 believe that Thou
art the Christ the Son OF the Living God" whether
such accepts the creed literally interprets
II spiritually. He says the Church certainly will
stand on slippery ground II she stakes everything
on literal Interpretation OF the creeds. In clos
ing. Mr.. Low says;
am far from asserting to all OF DR.. Crapsey s
opinions. but devoutly hope that he will be held
70 be entirely within his rights as minister Of
the protestant Episcopal Church in following his
scholarship wherever II may lead him. so long as
the creed IS 10 him the historic statement OF the
belief OF the Church full always OF spirit
ual truth and significance.
The Rev. J. Howard Mesh. rector OF Holy Trim
ity Church. Brooklyn, writing the same subject
10 The Churchman," describes Dr.. Crapsey 5
preaching at the Holy Trinity Church. Brooklyn,
and tells what influence he has his hearers.
He relates conversation he had with several
young college men who attended the church while
Dr. Crapsey was preaching. One man said: !
