Excerpt from A New Year's Address to the Congregation of "Trinity Church," Halifax, N. S

Such, I regret t) say, seems to be the aim of too many in our Church at borne, who while eating her bread, are undermining her foundations, laid in the blood of her martyrs and confessors at the time of the Reformation. Such there have been in all ages of the Church, and they are to be expected in the perilous times which mark these latter days. St. Paul in his farewell address at Ephesus (acts xx.) warns his flock against them. I know this, that after my departin Shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not Sparing the flock, also of your own selves Shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw disciples after them, therefore watch. And that word I would impress upon you. Watch against any change in the customs of the Church to which you belong, as they have come down to us from our fathers. Watch against any innovations in our form of worship. Regard them as the forerunners of unsoundness of doctrine, and departure from the faith. Compare what you see and bear with your Bibles and your Prayer Books. Look out, not for what may attract and please the eye, but what may mend the heart and fix your minds on Jesus, and save your souls.
