Speaking of the annual missionary sermon and the anniversary (May) meeting in connection with the Church Missionary Society, the Record of 2nd May Bays

India advance claims such as are wholly un- known in our own country, and these claims appear to us to be as unjustifiable either in Divine Scripture or in human law, as they are irreconcilable with the rights of the laity and the freedom of Christian action. To these claims the Evangelical Church declares contend against them with prudence and with moderation of language, but with an unflinching determination of purpose.・・ The Church Missionary Society, and the other Societies equally concerned in the matter as itsolf, can no longer have the shadow of a doubt that they will be sup- ported in the maintenance of the freedom of the whole force and strength of the Evange The Church against Episcopal usurpation by lical Church."
