back so far as not to hear what was said at the door. Your correspondent put the boot on the wrong foot when he says that I used great efforts to induce the police to effect forcible entrance. Sergeant Russell did speak to me on the way to the church, and when I told what I had done and •what I purposed doing, he heartily thanked me. Your correspondent says_ no attempt was made to serve the edict in the evening. Certainly not. The magic piece of paper that I pulled out of my pocket in the morning was simply an extract minute of the Presbytery referring to the resignation of Mr Hay. There is no edict read in preaching a charge vacant. The congregation is simply informed, after sermon, what the Presbytery has done, and that they are without a regular pastor. This I did iu the afternoon in Stafford church, which is the oldest church in the parish, so that I carried out after all the instructions of the Presbytery.—l am, &c, B. J.
