BISHOP'S FIRE
Dr. Grant Is Told to Recant
or Resign New York
Pulpit
HERESY TRIAL
MAY BE FORCED
YORK, Jan. 20 (United
NEW
Press).—Dr. Percy Stlckney Grant
in his sermon in the Church of the
Ascension tomorrow Is expected to
reply to the open letter of Bishop
William T. Manning, calling on him
to resign or retract his statement
that Christ did not have the power
i t God.
TJ>e bishop in his letter told Dr.
Grant that every man has a right
to freedom of thousEht. but that It
was not possible for him to rou
an Episcopal, minister if he
held beliefs contrary to the faith of
that church.
The letter was delivered st the
rectory of Dr. Grant's Fifth avenue
Church of thf Ascension last night.
Dr. Grant Is in the midet of prepar
ing his Sunday sermon.
From the bishop's letter It Is ap
parent that he and Dr. Grant con
ferred lost Wednesday, discussing
the whole situation and that at that
tim« Dr. Grant refused to resign, al
though requested to do so.
If he -.emalns firm in his eonten- j
tion that Christ had not the power
of God. that churches should not be
consecrated, etc., and refuses to give
up his holy orders, the bishop
rentually will be forced to put him
on trial for heresy. To do this it is
necessary for two Episcopal minis
ters to prefer charges, after which
the bishop names a commission to
decide whether there Is sufficient
grounds for a trial. If the commis
sion reports that there Is. a court is
appointed, and tho evidence heard,
the accused being represented by
counsel.
With the Bishop's ultimatum
tinue as
made known. It is expected that Dr.
Grant will either reign or fling back
the challenge and court the unusual
proceeding of a trial for heresy. A
report that Simutl Untermyer
would defend Dr. Girant in heresy
proceedings could not be confirmed
last night, as Mr. Untermyer is in
Florida and wlli remain there un
til the middle of February.
Bishop Manning's letter, timed to
arrest or lend impetus to Dr. Grant's
pronouncements, as the esse may
be, is couched in the strongest
terms and comes only after a long
series of provocations.
|BiSbop Burch publicly chastised
Dr. Gram two years ago, but oould
not go further, as the offending rec
ior had not actually violated the
canons of the church. Bishop
Manning makes it plain that Dr.
Grant has now exceeded his liber
ties and denied his faith. So long
ns he elects to remain a minister
of the Episcopal Church, loyalty to
tho creed is a binding obligation,
the bishop points out.
The teil of the letter follows:
•'Since my conversation with you
lasrt Wednesday afternoon I have
given most earnest thought to the
matter which we then discussed.
That conversation was, as you know,
in some Important points not re

upon to let you and the church
know clearly what my Judgment is
In this matter.

"The question involved Is one. not

Q 110 IC.S Bishop Potter
"In a great charge to the cOnven
tion of thin diocese, entitled, 'Lave
and Loyalty,' which I would gladly
i*ake i..y own. Bishop Henry C.
Potter said: "This Church has her|
standards of faith embodied in the]®*
creeds and offices and articles,
whlch. taken together with Holy
Scriptures, are her rule of faith. In
the interpretation of these there al
ways has been and there always will
be. certain latitude of Interpretation
for which every wise man will be
devoutly thankful. But that that
latitude exists Is no more certain
than that It has its limits, and that
the transgression of these limits, by
whatever ingenuity Jt has been at-1
compllahfd. has wrought only evil In
lowering the moral tone of the
Church, and in debilitating the In

Hints at Heresy Trial
If any man knows that he
cannot fulfill the terms upon which
he holds his Office In the ministry
hc should voluntarily retire from It
But. to quote again the words of
Bishop Potter. 'Toleration in a Body
which professes to hold and teach
Truth, must have its limtis.'
"I call upon you to correct unmls
takably the Impression which von
have publicly given of your disbelief
in our Lord Jesus Christ as God and
Saviour, or. If it Is not possible for
you to do so, then to withdraw from
tho ministry of this church."
Faithfully yours,

Precedent for Bishop's Action
Bishop Manning's action in de
manding the rewlgnntion of Dr.
Grant if he doe« not withdraw the
statements he made last Sunday is
not without precedent in the Epis
copal Church. The nearest parallel
is the case ot the Rev. Algernon S.
Crapsey, who was at one time rec
tor of the fashionable parish of St.
Andrew«, in Rochester.
He wasVeposed in 1906 when ho
was tried for views he expressed
on. the birth of Christ. He
given a chance to repudiate them,
hut refused to recant, Insisting that
these were his beliefs. He, loo, was
a picturesque figure, well known in
the Church for the radicalism of his
views. At his trial Dr. Crapsey in
sisted that he believed In the Apos
tles' Creed. Dr. Grant is known to
have virtually elided the creed from
his church service.
Secrecy has attached In most
cases to a request for resignation
from the ruling Bishop. The nature
of Dr. Grant's public challenge made
it impossible to keep the issue quiet
