EEw BISHOP At ST, AgNEs

A large congregation welcomed the
new Bishop Of Delaware, Right Reverend
Frederick Joseph Kinsman, at St. Anns's
Church on Sunday evening last. The
Bishop did not reach Middletown until
nearly 6 o'clock, after a very busy day at
Dover and Camden but his strenuous work
did not seem to affect him in the least.
His first sermon in this parish was upon
fellowship, from the first Epistle of John,
1st Chap. S-5, ''This then is the Message
His sermon was an excellent exhortation
and was delivered in pleasant manner.
Prior to the sermon, the entire oficiary
Of the church-yestry and wardens, pre-
ceded the Bishop and the rector of the
parish, Rev. Percy L. Donaghy, as they
entered the church and marched to the
altar.
As the procession approached the
chaneel, theaa yersicles and responses
we're recited:
Rector. Blessed is be that cometh ip
the name OF the Lord.
Bishop. We have wished you good
luck, ye that are Of the house of the
Lord.
Rector. Except the Lord keep tho
house:
All. Their labour is but lost that build
it.
Rector. Except the Lord keep the
city:
All. The watchman waketh but in
vain.
In relation to this ceremony. at the con.
ciusion OF which the vestry and wardens
returned TO their places, the Bishop says
to the ne8 congregations which he il yia'
iting, after leaving che use of the service
entirely TO the discretion OF the rector:
'It is hoped that this may prove nsei
ful in several ways. not only by emphas
izine the pastoral character Of Episcopa
work and the solemn relationship be
tween o Bishop and bis people. but alst
in suggesting. through the associatioa O
wardsns and vestry With the rector 10 ths
act Of reception. the responsibility Of rest
ing upan layman who are officers and rep
resentative Of spirituel society. More
over, no formal welcome 70 nsV
