Church of England.
A conference on confession and absolution convened 1-y the Bishop of London (Dr. Ingram), is now sitting at Fulham Palace. The conference has agreed that the church allows private confession and absolution under certain circumstances. The Fulham Conference was unanimous that the charge to remit sins was not addressed to the Apostles alone, but to the whole church; hence the clergy were not endowed with the prerogative of remission. The discipline of private confession and absolution did not exist in the first few centuries.
