M. R. GEORGE FORREST has forwarded us, for publication, the following deliverance by the Free Presbyterians in Ontario, Canada, in regard to the finding of last Synod:—
The Free Presbyterians in Ontario, in connection with the Free Presbyterian Church of Scotland, held their Annual Meeting at Brucefield on the 13th day of April, 1906. After disposing of routine business, the following declaration was moved by David Mackenzie, and seconded by Hugh Scott: “That the Free Presbyterians in Ontario are in full sympathy with the finding of the Synod of the Free Presbyterian Church regarding union with other Churches; that, in our judgment, union with the Free Church in the present circumstances would hinder rather than promote spiritual life among both ministers and people; that we feel thankful that the Synod stood so firm by the Constitution of the Church, and feel grieved that any of the Free Presbyterian ministers should so far forget their first love as to leave her communion at a time when help was so much needed.”
It was also moved, seconded, and agreed to, that this motion be sent to the Free Presbyterian Magazine for publication.
(Signed) GEORGE FORREST, Chairman.
