"Truth" ,says that Dr. Wallis, exBishop of 'Wellington, will probably be appointed Archdeacon of Wilts, and assist the Bishop of Salisbury in routine work. What the above cablegram announces as a rqmonr was definitely published as a fact m The Dominion- on January 31. In a letter, from. Bishop, Wallis to his diocese', which appeared on that date, the following paragraph appeared:—"l have received from ofy. brother, the Bishop of Salisbury, the offer of the Archdeaconry of Wiltshire, together with opportunities of. helping him in his episcopal work. When this'offer first came, the Mission was approaching, and therefore I hud na hesitation in declining it, and I did not expect that it would be. made again; But now.that it has been repeated, I have thought it my duty to accept. The work is in the .main'that for "which I have been consecrated; I believe that .it is, well within my bodily powers, and it Willi bring me within reach. of. the treatment the doctors have recommended. But I am' especially thankful that I shall' have-opportunities of lightening the labours, of one who is very dear to me, and ,to whom, the not onlv tn. Home, but almost throughout the worlH owes'an incalculable debt of gratitude."
