Cause for Thanksgiving.—Our readers will be glad to learn that in the good providence of the Lord the Rev. D. Beaton has recovered his health to a considerable extent, and still continues to improve. We trust that in the near future he will be quite fit to resume his duties as Editor. Mr. Beaton’s recovery, so far, is cause for sincere thankfulness to God.
Proceedings of Synod.—As in former years the Proceedings of the Synod will be published separately. A further notice regarding the publication will be given later when particulars are available.
Synod Statement.—Early this year a statement upon the subject of “Protest” was prepared and issued by the Rev. R. MacKenzie, Glasgow. The views therein stated are not the accepted views of the Synod upon this subject. For the information and guidance of our people the Synod of last May thought it advisable to prepare a statement dealing with this subject. This statement is being printed and due notice will be given as soon as it is available.
