the Holy Catholic Church, and he recog
,- abed the Roman Church, though erring,
and the. Oriental Church as branches of the
Church: . He hoped to'see ir union of the
branches. We could not:expect. to see the
Homan Church or the' Oriental ' Church to
come all the way to the Protestant Episco
pal Church of America.

nonce to authorize the payment to the con
tractors the amount he is over-charged out
