In order to assure his acceptance the Convention, on the next morning, voted that the Bishop's salary be fixed at four thousand dollars and a home. Moreover, to meet this obligation and inciden- tals thereunto, a committee was appointed to make an immediate effort to increase the principal of the Episcopate Fund to at least sixty thousand dollars. Having cleared these matters the Conven- tion proceeded to debate the question as to the name of the diocese. In the main the issue centered about the See Principle and the members of the Convention waited patiently for a report from a special committee that had been named by Bishop Coxe at the pre- vious Convention. But great was their disappointment on hearing from the Committee that it did not offer any direct resolution "because ... they do not themselves agree." Instead, after presenting in an academic manner the pros and cons incident to various aspects of the problem (so neatly balanced as to leave all in doubt as to what the committee had in mind) the committee concluded by reporting three possible courses of action: (1) to accept the offer of Syracuse and with it the name of Syracuse for the diocese; (2) to delay the choice until the bishop had decided where he wished to locate ; and (3) to adopt the name of Central New York.
According to available evidence the report was a great disap- pointment. Probably, Dr. Gibson in the Messenger, summed it up quite well, when he described the effort as "an exposition of the see-saw principle." Although the committee might have differed with the editor in this characterization, it frankly admitted that,
150

though having labored hard and long, it was divided and could not make a direct recommendation. How widely apart were the mem- bers was evident when, upon the conclusion of the report, one of them, Mr. John Stryker of Rome, introduced a motion describing the diocese as the Diocese of Central New York, and that the decision on the episcopal residence should be postponed in order to give the bishop an opportunity to express a preference. But no sooner was Mr. Stryker seated than Dr. Gibson was on his feet proposing an amendment to substitute the word "Syracuse" for "Central New York." Fortunately for all the noon hour had arrived and a wearied and confused body of delegates welcomed a recess that extended until three in the afternoon.
What transpired during this interim is unknown though it seems reasonable to assume that some may have indulged in serious discussion. Sober minds, it would appear, were anxious to avoid unnecessary debate and injured feelings. Such may have been the motive behind the motion carried by Charles Andrews of Syracuse that Bishop Coxe be invited to give an opinion on the problem. But the Bishop, not wishing to tread where wisdom argued no, wisely declined the "courteous invitation." Whereupon Dr. Van Deusen sought to amend Dr. Gibson's proposal by substituting "Utica and Syracuse" for "Syracuse." However, this motion was quickly brushed aside by another, introduced by Mr. A. P. Grant of Christ Church, Oswego, which if passed would have called the diocese the "See of Syracuse, Utica, Oswego, Auburn, Elmira, and Binghamton." Clearly, the situation was getting out of hand. At least this may have been what was in George F. Comstock's mind when he proposed that all amendments be laid on the table so that a direct vote might be had on the original motion. Though this was carried the charged air of the Convention was evidenced by an exchange of opinions between the Chair and a delegate as to whether such a vote had placed the original motion on the table. The Chair ruled otherwise and upon an appeal the decision was sustained.
But more confusion followed when Dr. Paret of Trinity Church, Elmira, sought to alter Mr. Stryker's motion by adding: "And in voting upon this question, this Convention is not to be understood as voting for or against what is called the 'See Prin- ciple'." Clearly his intent was to pave the way for a vote on the title "Central New York" without committing the Convention to the See Principle. The question being on the original motion as
151
THE FOUNDING FATHERS
thus amended, a vote by orders being called for, the result was as follows: Clergy-ayes, 17, nays, 29; Parishes-ayes, 31, nays, 11. So the motion was lost. But why ? Our sources provide no adequate answer. Certainly there may have been an element of confusion on the part of some amid all the amendments offered and discussion thereon. But it is interesting to note that while Dr. Paret and twenty-eight other of the clergy had voted in the negative, only eleven of the parishes did likewise. Then the unexpected happened. Dr. Paret moved a reconsideration of the question-a proposal the Convention agreed to without delay, and the original resolution was carried by a vote of sixty-two to thirty-six. Thus it was agreed the diocese was to be known as the Diocese of Central New York, it being understood that this involved no commitment either for or against the See Principle. Immediately thereafter, it was decided that the subject of the bishop's residence would be postponed until the next convention so as to give the bishop elect an opportunity to express a preference.
Following this action and while the Convention was disposing of other matters, Bishop Coxe found time to draft and submit the following communication to the Convention :
The Diocese now happily formed in the eastern portion of Western New York, having resolved upon the adoption of the name of Central New York, as that of the Diocese, I hereby give my consent to the same, recording, nevertheless, my sincere regret that another conclusion has not been reached by the Convention. I add my sincere prayer for a blessing upon the Diocese of Central New York and its Bishop elect.
For one who had pled for the avoidance of a title such as "Central New York" this communication spoke volumes in spite of its ex- treme brevity. A fuller statement was made in January, 1869, at a Special Convention of the new diocese. Here the Bishop stated :
It is strongly impressed upon my mind that Divine Providence has thus dealt with us, in order to suggest to us the inquiry whether there may have not been something in the action of our former council which it becomes us to review. The general surprise and disappointment of the church has been so expressed, as to deserve to be felt, with respect to the name you have fixed upon your diocese. Is it, indeed a fixture ? Can it not be removed ? Our beautiful geography is disfigured by a nomenclature which gives an air of buffonery to our map ... I grieve to say that this
152
MORNING GILDS THE SKIES
diocese has given itself the very worst name to be found in our church records.
But that is not all. In choosing a name of awkward and uncouth device you deliberately forfeited one of the most liberal proposals that could have dignified your beginnings as a diocese. The churchmen of the city in which we are assembled, with a promptness which will ever reflect honour upon them, proposed, in consideration of being accepted as the See, to provide your bishop with a dwelling, or Seehouse, in every way worthy of the diocese and suitable for its pur- pose. Was it worthy of practical men to reject an offering of $20,000 coupled with no unworthy conditions, when no other city of the diocese was prepared to make a similar tender ? Is it possible that any feeling of worldly rivalry, such as inseparable from our civil conventions, was allowed to intrude into the sacred precincts of church legislation ? I trust not. This has been suggested as an apology. I will not permit myself to credit what would be a gross aggrava- tion. On the contrary, I am compelled to believe that this mistake, for so I must call it, was occasioned by some doubts as to the See-system itself-a system on which I have ever spoken so freely that my opinions are well known and can- not be doubted. I could wish, in parting with a portion of my diocese, from which I have never received, in any other form, less of respect than I covet, some deference had been shown to the opinions of a Bishop, who is not conscious of any disposition to extremes, and who has demonstrated in a published sermon, the Scriptural and primitive character of that system.
These remarks are not dictated by another feeling, how- ever, than that of extreme disappointment. Do not imagine that a single corporate act of this kind has been allowed to efface the recollection of the thousand personal kindnesses which I have received from the Clergy and Laity of this Diocese. They are deeply graven in my heart. To the Churchmen of this city, more especially, my warm acknowl- edgments are due for the courtesy and affection with which they coupled their offer of a See-house with the expression of a desire that I might continue to be their Bishop and live to enjoy therein the benefit of their munificence. I ask once more, my beloved brethren, is there not something to be re- viewed in the action of your Primary Convention ? Putting this inquiry upon record, however, I have discharged my own duty, and there I leave the matter, with little doubt of your ultimate conclusions.
The convention, however, indicated no willingness to unlock Pandora's Box. So many troubles had dogged the councils of Cen-

tral New York in reference to its diocesan establishment that wis- dom must have argued for silence. Moreover, the issue was all but forgotten on receipt of the news that Dr. Littlejohn had been elected Bishop of Long Island eight days after Central New York had chosen him to be its diocesan. Bishop Coxe's first reactions were of dismay and consternation. He viewed it as unfortunate for himself and Central New York. "Nor do I admire them," he wrote, "for doing this in Brooklyn; nor do I think well of Little- john for permitting it." Six days later, November 25, Littlejohn visited Bishop Coxe in Buffalo and sought the latter's counsel as to the dilemma facing him. In his diary, the Bishop records his impressions in a vivid manner. He admitted he could
... see clearly that the interests of the Church requires him to stay on Long Island, and trying though it is to go through all this election again, I am willing to have it, rather than see Long Island subjected to a radical or to a thoroughly incompetent bishop. Dr. L. was only just elected and nobody else of his principles could have been chosen ... This, however, I do not say to Dr. L. on whom I press the claims of C.N.Y. that he may fairly understand them.
Two days later, after Dr. Littlejohn's departure, the Bishop wrote as follows: "Trust the visit has been not unimportant to the Church. He cannot come to C.N.Y. that's clear and I am reconciled, in view of the common good." On the following day, November 28, Dr. Littlejohn writing from his Brooklyn home informed Bishop Coxe that after "serious and prayerful consider- ation," he felt compelled to decline the high honor. In commenting on the episode at a later date, the Rev. C. W. Hayes stated :
The next week Dr. Littlejohn, as every one expected, was elected Bishop of Long Island, which also seems to us now a foregone conclusion; but of course those who voted for him in Utica must have somewhat persuaded themselves to the contrary.
Dr. Littlejohn's decision caused the Bishop, with the consent and approval of the Standing Committee of Central New York, to issue a call for a special convention to meet at St. Paul's Church, Syracuse, on January 13, 1869, for "the purpose of electing a bishop." In accordance with this call fifty-seven clergy and one hundred and forty-seven lay delegates, representing sixty-six par- ishes, gathered at Syracuse and were duly given seats in the Con- tion. Dr. Littlejohn, having preached the sermon at the morning
154
MORNING GILDS THE SKIES
service, the text being "Walk about Zion, and go round about her ; and tell the towers thereof, mark well her bulwarks, set up her houses, that ye may tell them that come after," was given a seat at the right hand of Bishop Coxe. Whereupon, a motion having passed for the election of a bishop, Bishop Coxe delivered an address most of which has already been commented upon.1 Following which he remarked extemporaneously in substance as follows:
I feel contrained to say, at this moment, that I have entirely abstained from taking any part in the work of selecting a candidate for the Episcopate of this Diocese. Any reports of a contrary nature must proceed from an entire mistake. I have been pleasantly asked, with respect to a reverend brother who has been prominently named as a can- didate, whether I have not been heard to remark that it is my hope to see him a bishop. Let me say, in all candour, that I have said as much of every brother whom I have heard named as a prominent candidate. But I have made no such remark as respects the Diocese of Central New York, nor with reference to this present canvas. Let me not be misunderstood. I do not feel that it would have been wrong for me to give counsel, with an open and frank avowal of preference, had circumstances made such councils necessary. I claim such a right for myself, and for any bish- op situated as I am. But I have chosen not to exercise such a right in the present circumstances. I reserve only the right to interfere in case any unworthy name should be introduced ; a crisis which I have no reason to apprehend. Even in such a case, I should act openly, and with a clear statement of my reasons before the whole Convention. No duty could be more clear than that of a Bishop in such an emergency. I should not hesitate to perform it, in such a case ; but I should act with outspoken freedom and candour and give everybody an opportunity to understand my ob- jections.
The stature of Bishop Coxe must have risen mightily in the eyes of all who heard or read these frank and Christian avowals. It put to rest any doubts that may have existed as to his role in the choice and election of any candidate. Moreover, it re-affirms emphatically what is most conspicuously established by his diary, namely that at no time had he whispered so much as a single word as to his preference. It is true that this source contains compli- mentary comments toward a life long friend, the Rev. Frederic Dan Huntington of Boston, though in no instance did he indicate
1 See above p.
155
THE FOUNDING FATHERS
a desire that he might be the new bishop. Central New York, in brief, canvassed and elected a man of its own choice.
The result of the first ballot showed that among thirteen can- didates, some of whom had been considered in the previous election, F. D. Huntington and E. M. Van Deusen received fifteen and twelve votes respectively out of fifty-six cast by the clergy. Among the laity, an equal number were cast of which these two gentlemen garnered twenty-nine and fifteen respectively. Clearly, opinions were divided largely on the issue as to whether the new diocesan should or should not be a resident of Central New York. On the second ballot, the number of candidates considered by the clergy decreased by three with Huntington and Van Deusen gaining twen- ty-seven and twelve in order. The laity, however, limited their choice to six names, Huntington receiving forty-three and Van Deusen, sixteen. The next ballot showed that of the fifty-five cler- ical votes, scattered among nine candidates, Huntington claimed thirty-one to Van Deusen's sixteen. The next and final ballot showed that of the fifty-five clerical votes given to nine candidates, Huntington had thirty-one to Van Deusen's twelve. Equally re- vealing was the result among the laity who, confining themselves to but five names, cast forty-five votes for Huntington and twelve for Van Deusen out of a total of sixty-three votes. The Chair having announced the election of Frederic Dan Huntington, the Convention joined in singing the Gloria in Excelsis; then voted unanimously in favor of him. A few minutes later, the Convention adjourned. Later that day and while still at Syracuse, Bishop Coxe entered the following in his diary :
In the afternoon, Laus deo !! Dr. Huntington was elected bishop of C.N. York. I think it a very happy choice, though I forbade taking any part in the matter leaving the result to God's gracious Providence, in entire submission. He appears to have graciously guided and blessed us.
In such a simple manner does this narrative come to its end. The pioneer days of the Church in Central New York were fin- ished. Its memorable life in two historic dioceses, to which it had made many notable contributions, was over. A new adventure lay ahead, the story of which starting with the consecration of Bishop Huntington at Boston in April 8, 1869, remains to be told.
