At the quarteily meeting of the Oamaru Presbytery it was decided, with regard to the question of marriage with a deceased wife's sister, by five votes to four, that the Church should adhere to the doctrine of the Confession of Faitb, which forbids such marriages. One of the Presbytery said that the legalisation of such marriages was only fit for a colony of rabbits.
