bo served from 6 to o clock admission correspondence mr editor there appeared in the labt issue of your valuable paper a letter from one of yonr es teemed citizen a on tbat very im port ant question church union now the writer is very strongly in favor of organic union and his advice to tbe good mem bers of knox church george town as to how thoy should vote on the question is undoubted ly very much for union as one who belongs to aobnrch wnich hoe already given its verdict on the question a congegation which has been carry i or on the good work for a period of 10 j years and which by a vote of practically 9 to 1 has decided to remain as it has been still a presbyterian congregation i take this opportunity of replying to some of the statements made by our good friend as found in his letter now i am sure we will all agree with tbe writer when he says that knox church george town and hundreds of others throughout our dominion have reach ui a very trying period in their history now our friend tells u s unit if knox church george town goes into tho union ft will go forward as it has done in tho post and its session and other offic ers will function as they have dnne in the past but if knox church decides by voto not to enter tho imon it will go into a now proa bytenan organization and will em burls on nn unknown sen accompan ied vitb diflioult navigation now i don t know how our good friend cflmo to get his imagination so bndly mixed u knox church georgetown or any other preflbj term n congregation in canada vote out of union they will still remain prnbj tcrtrins and will form a psrt of tbat grand old pres- bjtermn chnrch soch as has besn in the past and whose record speaks tor itself through tbe great work it linn accomplished in christian world but if knox chinch vorgctown enters union it will then undoubtedly embark on nn unknown sea and perhaps vtrv tempestuous one as well be cause it is beyond the power of man a mtelleel to know what til i it niirkiitiui votmg nit i itii t ili io give it a fair trial aro not natisiled they mubt bear in mind lhat they may t ilrnw themselves from tbe united bun h hut llity cannot take their ihiirch property or church funds with the tn these continue to re main hie prnpeity ot the imited ch u i ch ajain our friend lay great stress on the fact that the ginrrnl assembly on several oc- r nions endorsed church cnion by luge majorities nod that the dividual congregations should fall in line accordingly but i wish to remind bim that the general assemhly although it is the high eft court of the preflhytefian church yet is not tbe chorcb the individual members constitute the ghnreh andno other conraa the pover or aothonty to deprave them of that right and where they have had tbe opportunity bey are asserting their rights by vote in no uncertain maqder again tbe writer refers to the atti tude taken by members of die ns won and members of tbe board of tea of quality salad a is blended only from tender young
