" If this unhappy business cannot be amicably settled before in some other way, rather than thus endanger so important a pillar in our venerable spiritual edifice founded upon the Apostles and Prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner-stone, I should think that your Convention had much better abide by the consequences, until the meeting of our next General Con- vention, when they may avail themselves of far better advice than that of
" Dear and reverend Sir, your sincere friend and affectionate brother in Christ,
" THOMAS JOHN CLAGGETT,
" Bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church of Maryland.

" P. S. - If you can make it convenient to send me a dozen num- bers of the " Churchman's Magazine," beginning with this month, I shall forward the money to any person you may appoint. Direct to me near Upper Marlborough, Prince George's County, Md."
APPENDIX B.
" THERE was presented to this House a letter signed William H. Winder, enclosing two documents, signed Ammi Rogers. Mr. Winder informs this House, that he is counsel for the said Ammi Rogers, who, in the documents referred to, appeals to the General Convention, from a sentence of degradation said to have been passed on him without trial or hearing, by the Right Rev. Bishop Jarvis, of Connecticut.
" This House having considered the contents of the aforesaid papers, are of opinion that, agreeably to the Constitution of this Church, they have no authority to act on an appeal in regard to the matter stated; and that there is no existing mode by which any bishop or bishops of this Church can take cognizance of the conduct of any other bishop, unless at the desire of the Conven- tion of the Diocese to which such a bishop should belong, and conformably to rules of process by them established.
" And whereas this House acted on the concerns of the said Ammi Rogers, in the session of 1804, as appears by the min- utes ; they now wish it to be known that their proceedings at that time originated in his own petition, relative to the following points : -
"1. Whether he belonged to the Diocese of Connecticut, or to that of New York.
"2. The recalling which he proposed, of a circular letter written by Bishop Jarvis, forbidding the petitioner to perform divine ser- vice in the Diocese, and the clergy and laity of the same to coun- tenance him as a minister.
"3. A candid and impartial inquiry into his conduct and char- acter.
" On the first of the said points, the House then assembled, being assured that both the parties were disposed to submit to their determination, declared it to be, that Ammi Rogers was a clergy- man not of New York, but of Connecticut.
452
APPENDIX.
" The second point being a matter of internal concern of the Church in Connecticut, was not acted on judicially by this House ; although as their opinion was expected on both sides, they expressed it as it was, approbatory of the measure.
" On the third point, they were of opinion that Ammi Rogers, far from having been treated with injustice, had not received a sentence sufficiently severe.
" To the opinions thus given, no addition or alteration is intended by this House; and they finally dismiss the subject from their con- sideration.
" This House, wishing the House of Clerical and Lay Deputies to be informed of their proceedings on the application now before them, direct, that the Secretary deliver to them a copy of the minute now made, with the papers on which it is grounded. They also direct the Secretary to deliver a copy of the minute to Wil- liam H. Winder, esquire, and for the further information of that gentleman, to deliver with it a copy of the Constitution of this Church.
"The above was accordingly communicated to the House of Clerical and Lay Deputies, and a message was received from them containing the following unanimous resolution : 'That it is the opinion of this House, that, agreeably to the sixth article of the Constitution, the General Convention have no cognizance of the case of Ammi Rogers, and that he therefore have leave to with- draw his petition.'" - Journal of House of Bishops, 1808.
" There was no doubt on the minds of the two bishops present, that there had been an oversight in not granting to this man a trial in the Church in that State. But the oversight, if they were correct in supposing one, was not theirs, nor was it in their power to correct it. Nothing could have been easier than the convicting of him of faults which deserve degradation. But it did not become the Bishops to advise the recalling of the act, and the giving of him a trial." - Bishop White's Memoirs, etc., p. 199.

APPENDIX C.
THE following is a copy of the letter of Mr. Rayner, to Bishop Brownell, upon the terms of which his sentence of suspension from the ministry was grounded : -
" MONROE, October 9, 1827.
" RIGHT REV. AND DEAR SIR, - Although I am not conscious of having violated any Canon or Rubric of the Episcopal Church, in which, for many years, I have had the honor and happiness to officiate as a minister and public teacher; and although I have endeavored with great care and diligence to read and study the Holy Scriptures, and to teach and disseminate only such doctrines as, according to my best judgment, 'may be proved by most certain warrants of the same ;' yet forasmuch as it has appeared that my views of Scripture doctrine, in some points, which are thought important, are in the view of my clerical brethren and others considered inconsistent (if not expressly with the Articles, Creeds, and Liturgy) with the commonly received opinions of the ministers and members of the Episcopal Church ; and whereas, under these circumstances, there is little hope that I can be useful as a clergy- man of said Church; I hereby beg leave to resign to the Bishop, as well my official standing as an Episcopal clergyman in this Diocese, as my rectorship of the parish in which I at present offi- ciate ; and though the terms of this communication are not the same as those used in the second Canon of the General Convention of 1817 [Canon vii. 1820], yet by a liberal construction of that Canon, I believe my case may come within its provisions. I trust, there- fore, the Bishop will consider himself at liberty to record this ' declaration ' of my views, and also to take such other measures as in his judgment the Canon may require.
" I am aware that my present resignation must probably deprive me of the Bishop's pastoral superintendence, which I sincerely regret. That it should also forfeit me his private and personal friendship would be a misfortune to which I truly hope I shall not be subjected. I shall still humbly claim to be considered as a member of the Church, entitled to all its common privileges.
" With great respect, I am, Right Reverend and Dear Sir, " Your obedient servant,
" MENZIES RAYNER."
454
APPENDIX.
The Bishop in his annual address for 1828, alluding to this mat- ter, said : -
" It is known to the Convention that the Rev. Menzies Rayner has relinquished his ministry in this Church, and connected him- self with another religious communion. Having communicated to me in writing, the relinquishment of his 'official standing as an Episcopal clergyman in the Diocese,' that I might 'record ' the same, according to the provisions of the Canon, in that case made and provided, ' and also take such other measures, as in my judg- ment the case might require,' I have, therefore, recorded his said declaration so made; and also, in the presence of the Rev. George W. Doane and the Rev. Norman Pinney, have pronounced the said Menzies Rayner to be suspended from the exercise of the ministry of the Protestant Episcopal Church, and have recorded his suspension, pursuant to the provisions of the Canon above referred to. The Rev. Mr. Rayner, by making his suspension the result of his own voluntary act, has greatly relieved me from the pain which such an act of discipline is otherwise calculated to cre- ate. And however we may regret the cause which has led to it, we are not to be judges of other men's consciences, - ' to his own Master he standeth or falleth.'"
