Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Review of the Protest and Appeal of Bishop Doane: As Aggrieved by Bishops Meade, Burgess, and McIlvaine, and of Parts of His Reply to the Representations of Messrs. Halstead, Perkins, Coppuck and Gill If the incipient steps recorded in his pamphlet shall hereafter lead to a public trial, bitterly will Bishop Doane regret the folly of its publication. We will not say that on his own showing he may be convicted; but of all the points he has made, we affirm there is not one from which his innocence can be inferred. If the solemnity of the Bishop´s own denial be equivalent to a verdict of acquittal, then indeed he is an innocent and much abused man. But strike out from the pamphlet these unsupported denials, what remains, if not a confession of guilt, is very like an apology for all but admitted indiscretions. The three Bishops who unite in the letter are handled very uncerimoniously, - their conduct is denounced as uncanonical, unchristian, and inhuman. "For himself, he must alike resist the intrusion into the fold which he received from Jesus Christ, of the individual papacy of Rome, and of the triumviral papacy of Virginia, Maine and Ohio." Bishop Doane´s authority is deservedly great with the Church of Rome, but we doubt whether Pope, Cardinal or Archbishop, will recognize any resemblance to themselves, in the Right Reverend Fathers of Virginia, Maine and Ohio. But admit these gentlemen to be all that Bishop Doane asserts them to be, does such admission involve his innocence of the charges preferred against him, from his own diocese? They may constitute a triumviral papacy, and yet Bishop Doane may have obtained money under false pretences. We are repeatedly told of the length of time which has elapsed since the commission of the alleged frauds, and then somewhat triumphantly asked, why an investigation has not been earlier had?
