MINISTER SUSPENDED.
FROM PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Auckland, Last Night. , Tho Auckland Presbytery to-niglit decided that it would suspend the Rev. A. A. Murray from exercising l the rights and privileges of a minister of the Presbyterian Church of New Zealand, and dissolve the pastoral tie between him and St. Andrew's Church. Tlie committee which reported on the subject to the Presbytery stated that for nearly a year it had borne with Mr. Murray, in the hope that he would take an honorable course and resign, but Mr. Murray had determined to remain a minister of the Presbyterian Church, in spite of his disbelief in her doctrine and practice in the matter of baptism, and of his refusal to baptise children of members of the church. He has thus forced his brethren to discipline hini, adds the committee.
