Her education was blended with her religious growth. The Bible was her first took and "Pilgrim's Pro- greso" her second ; even the lune - byes she heard in her cradle were evangelical hymns. In her fifteenth year Frances and her sister attended a select school in Janesville, end in her eighteenth 'a Milwaukee female college. Her ambition in those years pointed to- ward a literary career. Her 157ft school was the Northwestern Female College at Evaneton, Illinois, where site registered in 1858. By this time she was beginning to display a grow- ing talent for leadership'. Whin the girls made sport of her red •hood she trounced one of them in sight of an the others. As for the men. she would have none of them. She thought women slinkd govern their own actions with an independence like that of men. As her popularity grew, she invented all kinds of pranks and led the girls on to per- petrate ehem.

The congregation had no eny in the matter. I It WAS on this ground that ses- Won after secession took place fes,m the "Surch of Scotlana. The first secession of any great importance took place under Ralph Erskine in 1733 and the seceders formed them- nelves into the Secession Church. But it was between the. years 1149 and 1780 that the movement assure. ed alarming proportions. Wherever a vacancy took place in a palieh inid a minister was presented to the living by a lay patron, the chances were that most of the congregation would quietly leave the Church and set up a meeting -house of their own. It was from those who seceded in this period that the "Relief" Church .1 Scotland was formed. In 1847 the Relief and the Secession Churenes united and became the United Pres- byterian Chureh. There are, how- ever, still a few original seceders, While the secession did not stop altogether uring the early years of the 13th century, the problem was not so acutely felt owing to the in- fluence of the Moderate party in the SCOTTISHCHURCH Church being more powerful than the Evangelical. Thu policy of the ONCE MORE UNITE Moderates was laissez faire in the matter of State connection. High above the crowned tower co lines Cathedral, Edinburgh, a rain how floated in the sky as, chantinge psalm of thanksgiving in unison the . the General Assemblies of the .burelt of Scotland and of the Unit- ed Free Church marched to the church there formally ratify the act of union which closes the breach that has existed between these two great -branches of Presbyterianism since before the disruption of 1843.

King coa veying his congratulations on the. happy outcome of the negotiatione end his regrets that the condition of his health prevented him from pre- siding in person. The greatest enthusiasm was dis- played. General holiday was pro claimed throughout the city crud buildings were lavishly decorated with flags and bunting. The clos- ing of the schools enabled thousands of children to witness the public pro- eession to the Cathedral, where nt least 10, 000 adherents of both churches were estimated to to in at- lendnnce. The two assemblies met firet. in their respective halls and then mar- ehed in procession to St. Giles. As the moderators at the head of the procession met, the whole throng burst in unison into the famed .metrical version of the psalm. "Behold how good a thing it is And now becoming well To gather as brethren In unity td dwell." As the solemn tones burst on the air, a rainbow, symbols of hope, tip peered in the sky, happy augury for the outcome of the clay's lumbers ings. There was a large influx of visit ors to the city and accornotletion in the neighborhood of St. Gilee we' 11 premium. Tn addition to the rev. Mend fathers and elders attending the assemblies the railwnys brought large ecrowds of people in from country districts while by motor and clutrabant hundreds; of folk came in from nearby reas. itepreeentativey, of Presbyterian chneenes abroad and in the Dominions were given 'prom- inence at the proceedings. MODERATORS HONORED As a symbol of civic interest 10 the event, the freedom of Edinburgh was conferred en two of the princip- el union leaders, Rev. Principe' Martin and Rev. Dr. John White, who is moderator -designate of the united assembly. The closing meetings of both as- semblies were held previously, the Church of Scotland miserably being attended by the Dune and Duchess of York. Rev. Dr. White, submit- ting the report of the joint commit- tee on union, said it was realized that the church was parting with some very sacred associations— "very dear for our father"s sakes and doubtly precious for our DAVII experience—but we are giving up nothing which they held dear, We take with us the heritage they left In the United Free Church assem- hlY, Rev. Dr. Drummond submitted the report on union. It was proposed to pay $125,000 as a settlement to minority, he stated. These were to carry on a continuing 'United Free Church with headquarters in Glas- gow. It was the wish of the church in that matter not only to be generous but to be just. It W.-18 matter of very profound regret that there should have been any dissent- ient and any need for such a settle- ment, but since it had to be, they parted as brethren and without bit- terness, he added. The Free Chile& minority leaders, when motion was submitted for am- endment, moved that the Assembly adjourn to meet in Glasgow as the continuing United Free Church. This was defeated by an overwhelm- ing amendment, HISTORY OF SECESSION The two great branches of the Presbyterian Church in Scotland have now become one of the most proverbial bitterness that enters '13! to family quarrels has been dissipat- ed, Presbyterianiem has hen eestein lished in Scotland since the Reform ation, with the exception of a vary Short period during which the Church petforee became episcopal • inaVninell 110 the very essence er Prembyterieniem is democracy the members of the Church of Scotland have always wanted to choose their own ministers. But the Act of Par- liament which established the church With the fall of the Mode:rites and the rise into power of the Evan- gelicals largely due to spiritual com- petition of the noncomformist bodies gold their greater enthusiasm, the problem of lay patronage again came to the fore and, though the Church passed an Act of Assembly In 1834 permitting a congregation to veto the presentation of a minis- ter of whom they disapproved, the law courts decided against the veiici- ity of the Act and then in 1843 came the great secession called the Disruption through which 451 minis• ters out of the 1,203 in the Church of Scotland walked out of the Gen elrhaulreAh7rIbly and founded a c"Free They took with them one-third of ' the membership' 'of the old Church, every one of its missionaries except one and nearly the whole of the Pon- ulation of the highlands into the wilderness, having sacrificed a total annual income or half a million dol - tors. all matters of doctrine and discip- United Presbyterian Church in 1900 under the name of the United Free Church. They were all opposed to lay patronage but the U. P. have all along been opposed to any state con- nections. When the union of 900 took place a large number of the Free Church people refused to come tn. They claimed all the property ot the Free Church land, after lengthy litigation, they got it. There was, however, an Act of Parliament pas- sed restoring much of it to the U. F,8. Most of ;the continuing PreQ churchmen were and are in the high- lands in many parishes or which the "Wee Frees," as they are called, are in the majority. The Church of Scotland, much de- pleted by the Disruption, started to set its house in order. It persuaded Parliament to pass en Act abolish- ing lay patronage, Which had caueed all this trouble. So that there now remained nothing to prevent the Free •Chureh coming back to the fold But they did not come. Since 1908, however, ernen the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland invited the other Preeby- terian churches to "confer" on re- union, negotiations have been going on between the United Free Ch'ing: and the Church of Scotland. During and owing to the War these negotia- tions were in abeyance, Beira, re-, sumed in 1919, they resulted in the passing of an Act of parliament at the request of the Church' of Scot- land -which embodies the articles of the Church itself. The Church is autonomous, =Hone/ and free. As long as it remains Trinitarian Chriet- ian it is completely free to decide on all mutters of doctrine and diecip- ine. Another act was passed in 1925 givink the Church complete control over its own pronerty.
