Nave No wish to cast reflections upon

tell the rest of the story:
"Sheriff I3'yndunan 'had written, in
his generally descriptive letters home,
a sketch of church affairs, wherein Dr.
Hamilton's s't'able and the nsed-ters_re-
lating to i1 were given. This fell into
the hands of Miss Lawrence, a cousin
Of his grandmother. Lord, Goderich,
afterwards Earl of Rio'on, was then
heir-at-law to Studly Royal, with its
far-famed Fountains .Abbey and Cha-
pel of the Aline Altars, and was also
heir to the estate of of the same Mis's
Lawrence. Both, no doubt, were hor-
rified at the idea of a'coni'mun+ity in
stioh, straits forced to such a substi-
tution. A correspondence ensued with
Mr. Hyntl'man. Miss Law'rentels
otis,h and instructions were to have a
stone church built in. Goderich at a
cost' of 20,000, the iniferenlce being
that she shared the ex'pense with Lon
Goderich. All areanigemenfis were 1511'•1

it is alleged, that'tlhe `historic cl jrch'

instead o'f on its rightful site on the
banks of the ,3ifinne'setung.
"The chain of evidence seems con-
-plete save for one thing. :What kept
Sheriff Hyndman silent ? The eye
which" detected lessglaring mistakes,
and the pen which chas'tized them,
must have been for once, asleep and
inactive. The name of the donor of
Holy Trinity has only recently been
made public. In these early years the
secret was in the keeping of but three
people. The publication of it has been
very generally interesting as a tribute
not only to the hitherto unknown
donor, but to the business capacity of
the bishop who so well husb'anded the

• ,But the name of the donor of Holy
Trinity has conte dawn to us as Miss
Lamtbert,and the question arises:
Why if Miss Lawrence was the donor
washer name not mentioned? The
Misses Lizars answer that by stating
that, "Miss Lambert lived with Miss
Lawrence; so this curious sequence
of coincidences between gifts, maiden
ladies and bishops becomes plain
enough!' It may have been clear to
them; it is not to me; and I should
like to hear Bishop Strachan's version
of the matter before coming to the
