-"NONCONFORMISTS MUZZLED AT CEFN." Sir,—My attention having been called to c pa-ragraph under the above heading, which ap peared in your issue of May 15th, a sense of iAixness to the Churehpeoplo at (Join, as well as loyalty to the truth, compels me to contradict it. How small an amount of truth there is in the statement wiU be seen by The foUowing facte:—(1) The Church Hall was lent by the b-ustecs for the meetings of the Wcslevan Synod ■without conditions, in any shape or form. (2) There was no "strong resolution," to my know- ledge, drafted "by any of the "officers" or any other member of the Synod 111 favour of Dis- establishment; or if prepared. it was not pro- duced, much less read. (3) It certainly was suggested that a resolution on the question should be passed by the Synod, but the major- ity of the representatives, having a sense of the .•'propriety of things," under the circumstances favoured the postponement of the question, and that was done. (4) It is not true that a motion "to the effect that no such terms be ever again entered into by local committees" was "carried araiinoualj. Nfl JBoUSft 534 t put> I to the meeting. But "at the close of the proceeding. the Synod did unanimously pass the following jrerohrtion: "That the heartiest thanks of the 8 mod be tendered to tho Rector and his co-trusses for their kindness in lending the hall, and that the resolution be sent to the Rev. John Davies through the Superintendent." Such beinq the true facts. I invite your read- ers to try and find the author's "significant in- °J" discover, if they can, "Nonconform- ists Muzzied. It i« deplorable that any-one should make unfounded public statements, evi- dently only for the purpose of rousing religion; bigotry and animosity. AU lovers of the relig- ious community at Cefn and elsewhere will join their hopes with mine, that the attempt will utterly fail. Will you please g»ve the abevo facts the same prominence in your popular journal a3 was givan to last week's, imaginary statement, and oblige.-Yo-urs truly, IL 0. HUGHES, Superintendent Minister.
