the latter alternative This would seem
10 be tho natural outcome of the line
Of development you have adopted. For
your own peace OF mind and for the
effectiveness OF your work YOU ought
not to try to discharge an Impossible
dual loyalty.
AS you know. have thought II like
ly that your theories did not greatly
affect your practice, and that when
II was necessary tn make a dennite
choice between R0nan and Anglican
ways, you chose the Anglican. But
theories and practices ought to 20 to-
gether; and urge you prayerfully to
choose between the Roman Church and
ours, and then give to the Church OF
your choice an absolutely undivided al
legiance
While IL is necessary for me 10 send
this letter OF admonition I hope you
win allow me TO add an expression of
my personal appreciation of your char
come to know you. My correspondence
with you during the last six months
has convinced me OF your sincere devo-
ton 90 the Church's work and of your
desire to be loyal to the Church OF
your BIRTH even when / am bound to
hold you so mistaken on some points.
l wish especially to express my ap-
probation OF your straightforwardness
I Let.
that I know Of yourself, OF your work,
Of your relations with Bishop Cole
man. and OF his reasons for disap-
proving your course, has come directly
from your self. / shall always have
most pleasant recollections of your
visit TO Bishopstead Whatever the fu-
ture has in store, you may always be
assured Of my prayers and best wishes
for you and your work.

In a letter Of July 10. Father Paul
James Francis wrote. "The four PROPOSE.
tions you lay down correctly represent
my personal opinions. exc that would
alter Proposition to read as follows:
The true Anglican position, doctrinally
expressed, is contained in the five arti-
cies drawn up and unanimously passed
by the Bishops and Clergy OF the Church
OF England in the Convocation Of 1859,
that being the last time the entire spir-
itualty OF the Anglican Church unre.
strained by Royal Supremacy freely voic-
ed the mind and tradition Of Ecciesia An
gelicana." (The clergy meeting in the
Convocation OF 1863 were the Marion
IL.
tioles affirmed the supremacy Of the Ro-
man See.) . II must dissent
from the "single proposition" into which
YOU resolve the above mentioned four.
viz that I accept the whole teaching OF
the Roman Church save the single de-
tail Of its reputation Of Anglican ord
ers" Beyond the do hde or dogmatic
teaching OF the Holy Roman Church I
have not committed myself in the inter-
ests Of Corporate Reunion. There Is
much teaching IN the Roman Church be-
side the single detail OF Anglican Orders
which does not come within the scope OF
ex cathedra dehnltion.2
