From the Buffalo express we clip the following:—
The most interesting session of the Presbytery of Genesee ever held in this county was that of to-day. There were about fifteen clergymen and two dozen elders present. The application of Arthur R.V——of North Bergen for ordination was presented. He previously had been examined and accepted in the Lyons Presbytery and wished to become a minister in the Genesee Presbytery. The only ground for doubt as to his acceptability was his views in regard to Christian Science. His psychological examination as well as theological was as satisfactory as it was rigid, and all went well until the following question was asked, which was prepared by the committee; "Should you be ordained pastor of the North Bergen Church, and one of your parishioners be taken ill, would you feel justified in calling in a Christian Scientist in preference to a regular physician?"
"Yes, I believe I would," answered Mr. V——. "To have faith in God for healing and then call in the assistance of drugs is, in my mind, a vital contradition."
