CANON 19.

OF PERSONS NOT MINISTERS OF THI CHURCH OFFICIATING IN ANY CON- GREGATION THEREOF.

"No Minister in charge of any Congr gation of this Church, or, in case of va cancy or absence, no Church Warden: Vestrymen, or Trustees of the Congrega tion, shall permit any person to officiat therein without sufficient evidence of hi being duly licensed or ordained to minis ter in this Church ; provided, that nothin herein shall be so construed as to forbi Communicants of the Church to act as La Readers."

This is the old Canon as it stood unt the recent General Convention made a addition to it, which is as follows: "or to prevent the Bishop of the Dioces or Missionary District from giving per mission to Christian men, who are no Ministers of this Church, to make ac dresses in the Church on special occa sion's."

It is well that the Clergy and peopl generally should be familiar with the pre . cise wording of this amendment, so tha they may not imagine it to be more sweer ing than it really is. Without doubt it i an intimation of good will and larg mindedness, and a desire to recognize th benefits that may accrue from addresse given by Christian men who are not Mir isters of the Church on certain occasion when they seem appropriate. And we ar glad to welcome any indications of comit which do not infringe upon the principl for which this Church stands. But i should be observed that the amendment does not at all involve the "open pulpit, as it is called; and Bishops are not en powered to license the opening of the pu pit at all times and to everybody. Indeed it will be seen that the permission is ro stricted to "addresses" not "sermons," an. that on "special occasions," not at the ordi nary times, nor every Sunday. Whateve may be the feeling or preference of th Bishops in the matter, therefore, it is evi dent that the Canon does not leave then

t liberty to license an indiscriminate in- erchange of preachers.

OBITUARY.

HIE REV. JOSHUA L. BURROWS, PH. D. The Rev. Joshua L. Burrows, Ph. D., a tired presbyter of the Diocese, died in shtabula, Ohio, October 25th. Dr. Bur- ws was at one time Rector of Christ hurch, Sherburne, and for sixteen years ector of the Church of the Evangelists, swego. The remains were brought to swego for burial. The Rev. Messrs. H. Sizer and R. H. Gesner officiated at the ave.

MRS. LYNCII.

On Wednesday evening, October 30th, at her home in Utica, Mrs. Sarah Adams Johnson Lynch, widow of Mr. James S. Lynch, passed from among us into the other life. Her departure is not only a source of grief to her family and many friends, but it is a distinct loss to the Church and to those who knew her only through her works. For Mrs. Lynch was both personally attractive and religiously devoted. She was bright and witty, and able to make herself most interesting in company; and at the same time she had an enthusiasm for humanity growing out of her faith in and love for the Savior of the world. Whenever she heard of the hungry, the naked, or the sick, it seemed as if she at once remembered His saying, "Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these, My brethren, ye have done it unto Me," and she went and did. the thing that was needed. She was brought up in Trinity Church, but after her marriage she began going to Grace Church, and was a regular attendant on its services, except for a few years, when she went to St. Luke's, in the early his- tory of that parish. St. Luke's was start- ed as a mission of Grace Church and grew up in connection with the Home and Hos- pital under the charge of the Rev. Dr. Van Deusen, Rector of that Parish. It was doubtless her interest in that charit- able institution, of which she was one of the original Board of Almoners, that took her to the services of the mission for a time ; and her labors for the welfare of the Home and Hospital did not cease so long as she lived. Indeed, though she had reached the eightieth year of her life, Mrs. Lynch may be truly said to have died in the harness. She became the President of the Ladies' Aid Society of Grace Church in 1886, at the time of its organization, and through all the twenty-one years since then she had been the active, energetic, un- tiring leader and mainspring of its noble work. For that society is not for the pur- pose of raising money for the Parish, as is usually the case with organizations so

named, but its chief object is to aid the poor, and to furnish clothing for those missionaries whose small stipends are not adequate to the needs of their families. In this way it does for the Diocese what the Woman's Auxiliary does for the General Board of Missions. And it was a fortu- nate thing for the missionaries when Mrs. Lynch took the lead in that society. She got money for its work where others would have utterly failed; nor only money; but work and material and garments ready made. Not once, nor twice, but many times did she go to her friends and get from them the clothes that they had on their backs, which they would have con- tinued to wear but for her irresistible manner of making the suggestion. She did not beg, but she put it to them in the right way, and they were made to feel that she was conferring a favor on them-as indeed she was. It will probably be dif- ficult to fill her place in the Ladies' Aid Society, and, as has been said above, she will be greatly missed in every circle in which she moved.

But now that the Lord has given her rest from her labors, her works do follow her, and our prayer is that light perpetual may shine upon her in the Paradise of God, and that we who knew her may have grace to follow her good example. Amen.

HERMON VAN VECHTEN BOSTWICK.

At a meeting of the Vestry of Saint John's Church, Ithaca, New York, held November 6, 1907, the following resolu- tions on the death of Hermon Van Vech- ten Bostwick were presented and unani- mously adopted :

The Vestry of Saint John's Church of Ithaca, New York, desire to record their personal grief at the death of their late associate, Hermon V. Bostwick, and their appreciation of his character and his serv- ices to the Church, extending over a pe- riod of thirty-seven years.

Mr. Bostwick became a member of the Vestry at Easter, 1870; was chosen Treas- urer in April, 1878, holding this office continuously until the day of his death;

at Easter, 1888, he was elected Junic Warden; and at Easter, 1901, he becam Senior Warden, which position he fille until his death, on November 1, 1907.

This record, although it comprises moi than half of the span of Mr. Bostwick life, fcebly represents the extent of h services to the Church. He was tirele; in the discharge of the duties of his o fices, and punctual and exact in all h business dealings. He was a loyal frien and supporter of his Rectors, a value counsellor of his associates of the Vestr and a wholesome influence in the paris and community.

But beyond the services rendered by tl faithful and unselfish discharge of his o ficial duties must be reckoned the pow of a consistent Christian character di played in all the dealings of his lif Reared from his early youth in reverend and attachment for the Church, he w: devoted to her outward services and ir bued with her inward spirit. The car and occupations of a business life we not allowed to divert him from constar attendance upon her services and unse fish devotion to the welfare of the paris His influence was not confined to Itha alone, but was recognized throughout t] Diocese, and Mr. Bostwick was choso more than once by the Diocesan Conve tion as a delegate to the General Conve tion of the Church.

In his public and private life Mr. Bos wick wa's endeared to his associates ar friends by his amiable and unselfish cha acter, and the example of his devotion duty will long serve as a lofty ideal to & who knew him.

The Clerk of Vestry was instructed spread these resolutions on the minutes, send a copy to the family of Mr. Bostwi and to the GOSPEL MESSENGER for pub cation.

Outward attacks and troubles rath fix than unsettle the Christian, as tempes from without only serve to root the 0: faster; whilst an inward canker w gradually rot and decay it.

The Branch ecretaries or their deputies represented e six Utica branches, and those at Christ hurch, Oswego; Zion Church, Rome; St. ohn the Divine and All Saints, Syracuse; t.

BOOK NOTICE.

THE VISION OF ST. AGNES' EVE .- By Marie E. J. Hobart. Longmans, Green & Co.

This is another of those instructive mys- tery plays for children by Mrs. Hobart, which have been found so interesting and helpful at St. Agnes' Chapel, New York. The two previous ones, it will be remem- bered, were entitled "The Lady Catechism and the Child" and "The Little Pilgrims and the Book Beloved." This last one, called "The Vision of St. Agnes' Eve," is intended to show what the teaching of the Church is about death and Paradise and the Church Expectant ; the visions alluded to are of those who have passed on to that state, who are shown to be still interested in the Church Militant, thus bringing out the reality of the Communion of Saints ; and the accounts that they give of their work while on earth furnish a fine illus- tration of the missionary idea, and of the way that the Kingdom of God has been extended from place to place. Teaching of this kind, presented in such a way, can- not fail to make a deep and lasting impres- sion on the minds of children.

The examination of candidates for Or- ders will take place before the entire Board of Chaplains, in Trinity Parish House, Utica, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs- day, December 17-19, 1907, and in Trin- ity Parish House, Syracuse, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, June 9-11. 1908.

Candidates may be also examined by the local Chaplains during the spring and fall Ember days, or at other times, if so arranged.

HISTORY OF TRINITY PARISH, ELMIRA.

On examination of the records of Trin- ity Church, Elmira, New York, it is dis- covered that the first service held in El- mira according to the Prayer Book of the Protestant Episcopal Church was conduct- ed by the Rt. Rev. Benjamin Tredwell Onderdonk, Bishop of New York, in 1832. Shortly after this event a subscrip- tion paper was started for the support of a missionary by Mrs. Thomas Hill, to whom, more than to any other individual,

as being the first marriage celebrated the place according to the rites and usags of our Church. In May of the same yer Daniel E. Brown, a candidate for H Orders, held services here for several Sı days and gave the Canonical notice : the organization of a parish. This org; ization was completed June 12th, 18: under the supervision of Mr. Carder. Te instrument of organization was signed James D. Carder, Archibald Heggie a Jonathan L. Lawrence in the presence

the Episcopal Church in Elmira owes its origin. The Village of Elmira then num- bered about two thousand people. The number of communicants was six. This first effort was unsuccessful. In the win- ter of 1833 two Church families moved to the place, those of Damon Hatch and Har- vey Luce. The project of forming a par- ish was revived, with better success. . A Clergyman at this time by the name of James D. Carder visited Elmira and held services. During his visit he united in marriage Peter R. K. Brotherson and Frances McReynolds. This is memorable

Samuel H. Maxwell and Hunt Pomer The names of the Wardens and Vestrym first elected were:

Wardens-Harvey Luce and Ephra Wheeler.

Vestrymen-Platt Bennett, Samuel Maxwell, Richard F. Seabury, Levi Cooley, Linus Griswold, Amon Beardsl Ransom Birdsall and Freeborn Disson,

Rector-Rev. Thomas Clark.

Clerk-P. R. K. Brotherson.

uild. A building committee was there- pre appointed, and a resolution passed by he Vestry that a Church should be erect- d at a cost not exceeding three thousand ollars. The site selected was on the buthwest corner of Church and Railroad venue. The congregation at this time as small and possessed little money.

Irs. Thomas Hill rendered very nportant service. She manifested great eal and determination by going to New ork and making personal application to rinity Church in that city and secured or the Elmira Church $800. The hurch was completed in December, 1836, hd consecrated by Bishop Onderdonk Au- ust 27th, 1837. The Rector at this time as the Rev. Richard Smith.

hurch was occupied about . eighteen

ears. The Rectors during this period ere: Richard Smith, Gordon Winslow, endrick Metcalf, Stephen Douglass, B. Whitcher, Washington Van Zandt and ndrew D. Hull. In 1855, during the ectorship of the Rev. Dr. Andrew D. ull, in view of the Church being on the ne of the railroad and because the con- 'egation had outgrown the building, it as decided to build a new Church, the st of which was not to exceed $20,000. he present admirable site was selected id a building committee appointed. This mmittee was composed of the Rev. Dr. ndrew D. Hull, B. P. Beardsley, S. T. rnot, W. P. Yates and W. F. Roe. The rnerstone was placed by the Rt. Rev. Tilliam H. Delancey July 26, 1855. The 'st service held in the new Church was July 4th, 1858. In consequence of a ebt the consecration was delayed until pril 5th, 1866, when it was separated om all unhallowed, worldly and common es and consecrated to the worship of Al- ighty God by the Rt. Rev. Arthur Cleve- nd Coxe, Bishop of Western New ork. After a long and worthy Rector- ip the Rev. Dr. Hull resigned in 1866 hd was followed by the Rev. William aret, now the widely known and promi- r ent Bishop of Maryland. His Rector- ip of Trinity, Elmira, was brief, but as marked by decided energy and ability.

Dr. William Paret resigned in 1869 and the Vestry called the Rev. George H. McKnight, Rector of Christ Church, Springfield, Massachusetts, on the nom- ination of the new and first Bishop of Cen- tral New York, the Rt. Rev. Frederic Dan Huntington. Dr. McKnight enjoyed one of the longest Rectorships in the history of the Diocese. For thirty-six years he administered the affairs of the parish. He accomplished a vast amount of good and was instrumental in increasing in a marked degree the offerings of the parish for outside purposes. He stood always for the great cause of missions and spread of the Gospel throughout the world .. And, now, after all these years of giving of This ~ money this parish will this year give a young man for the work in the Far East. Dr. McKnight is the only Rector in the history of the parish who has continued as such to the end of his ministry. He was Rector of the parish when death came in his 85th year, December 14th, 1905.

The Rev. Charles H. McKnight, son of the former Rector, was called to the suc- cession in April, 1906.

Meetings of the Standing Committee from now on to the Convention, June, , 190S, will be held :

Thursday, Dec. 19th, 1907, Utica.

Thursday, March 13th, 1908, Syracuse. Tuesday, June 2d, 1908, Syracuse.

These dates are given so that all throughout the Diocese may know at what time to prepare papers, petitions or other matters to come before the Committee. Special meetings may be held at the call of the President. It is the earnest request of the Committee that all business requir- ing early action should be sent in so as to conform to the above dates.

"What is truth ?" was once asked of a deaf and dumb boy. He moved his finger in a straight line. "What is falsehood ?" He made a zigzag motion with his finger. Truth is the straight line, falsehood is the crooked way.
