Montgomery. Ala.. Oct. 12.—The board of truateea of the Montevallo Olrta’ School will aak the legislature In the extra cession to appropriate S20.000 additional for bulldlnga and Improve ments. according to Judge A. H. Alston, who has returned from a meeting of the board. He said the school could have had I,oao girls If there had been r$»om i his year. The work on the new dor- •nltory baa commenced. Five members of 8t. Lukes Epis copal church and Deun Pise of the Cathedral, have written letters deny ing that Dr. C. B. Wllmer, rector of Lukes, attacked the Bible In his sI>eech at the Episcopal convention several days ago. They say that In de. fending an unfair attack upon a friend he declared that the expression “word of God” has been the cause of great Infidelity. In the following letter from Dean 5 lse he censures the deputlea who so i ar forgot themselves In the convention « to hiss Dr. Wllmer: It Is exceedingly to be regretted that any member of the general convention should so far have forgotten himself as to have hissed a fellow' member. There are other ami more dlgnltled ways of showing one's disapproval of another's opinions. 1 fee| it my duty also to say. for the reassurance of Dr. Wllmer’a friends In Atlanta, amongst horn I esteem It a privilege to be numbered, and In the cause of fair ness. that Dr. Wllmer did not attack the Bible nor Inspiration. He did not say that the Bible had been the cause of infidelity. It Is hardly fair to con demn a man’s utterances from the meager report the press is compelled to give. In the heat of debate and In repelling an unfair attuck on a friend. It is not surprising that he should make a statement susceptible of being misunderstood. But I do po*l- tlvelv asset t that Dr. Wllmer did not attack the Bible, both because ! know him and his views on this subject and because even the meager report of what he said proves It. The more accurate account In this ornlng’s (institution shows that Dr. Wllmer said, not that the Bible, nor that the word of God, had been the cause of Infidelity: but that "the ex pression in which the Bible Is describ ed as 'the word of God' had been the c-tuse of great Infidelity." It is hard ly fair to call this ifn attack on the Bible. He was attacking a certain ex pression used to describe the Bible, an expression which has come, whether rightly or wrongly, to be associated with a certain theory of inspiration that utterly Ignored the human ele ment In the Bible, or at the very least tends to obliterate that very essential element In the Bible from the thought of men about the Holy 8cr1f,>tures. Then, again, the suggestion of the illustration of the wheat field In the report of Dr. Wllmer’s argument Indi cates at least that he would call the Bible the word of Ood In a qualified sense. For the Christian who accepts the Nlcene Creed as the sufficient statement of "the faith once delivered to the saints," one. ami only one, can he called tn an absolute and unquali fied sense the won! of God; and that is He who In the beginning waa, and waa with God, and was God . . . and was made flesh and dwelt among US. (3 Jon., 1:1-2.) And the Holy Scriptures have won and hold and ever will ctmtlnue to hold their place In the mind and heart of men because they testify of Him. No man In Atlanta studies the Bible, or reverences and loves It more than Dr. Wllmer. and It Is because of this, suit, that be has criticised an ex the nature of the Bible, und Its In splratlon that. In Ills judgment, tends to weaken Us hold and Influence on the minds of thoughtful people and keep them from the faith of Christ. That theory of plenur.v Inspiration and liter al Infallibility has only become reg- natil amongst orthodox Christians since the beginning of the seventeenth century. I question whether ten men could be found among the deputies to the general convention who would give that theory their unqualified Indorse ment. The church of which Dr. Wllmer Is a minister has never made any au thoritative definition of inspiration. The nearest approach to it was in article 6 of the articles of religion, where Is expressed the conviction that Holy Scripture contains all things necessary to salvation, and that noth ing except what may be had therein or proved therefrom Is to be taught or required as an article of the faith and as necessary t«» salvation. To this 1 am convinced he would heartily assent. I know, further, that those words of the Nlcene Creed which express the faith and teaching of the undivided church on this matter express his hon est convictions and command his ear nest loyalty. "And I believe In the Holy Ghost ... who spake by the prophets." CHARLES T. A. PISE. Atlanta. October 11. 1907. From St. Lukes Church. 8peaking for the membership of 8t. Lukes church, five members have pre pared the following letter: Although our braved rector. Dr. C. B. Wllmer. needs neither apologist, de. fender nor champion, we feel it due to the situation which has been brought about by recent local criticisms of Ian gunge attributed to hint as having been uttered during a discussion at a re cent session of the bouse of clerical ami lay deputies of the triennial con vent Ion of the church, at Richmond. note with deep regret that com mettt Is made upon a basis that Is absolutely unfair and unfounded. ^ In that language Is ascribed to Dr. Wll mer that was not used by him—If the re|H»rt In The Richmond Times-Dis patch be correct, as may well be sup posed—In that the occurrence took place in Richmond. From this report It appear* that there was a discussion upon the preamble of a resolution Introduced by Rev. Hunt ington, of New York, with special ref erence to a phrase used by him—'‘the record of God's revelation of Himself In Nis 8on.’* It was moved that this phrase should be eliminated and the words "Word of God" substituted. The Richmond paper states a* follows: "Dr. Wllmer said he thought the expression •Word of God’ had been the cause of great Infledlty." It will be noted that Dr. WllmeFs remarks were addressed to the abstract proposition a* to the theological use of these certain words In referring to the Bible, In the docu ment under consideration and discus sion. He is not by the Richmond paper rep4>rted as using the language which has been locally adopted as a text for uncharitable and Injurious strictures by a portion of the local press. We will not enter upon argument nor further comment, as we do not intend pression growing out of a theory of to be draw n Into newspaper discussion; but we think this present statement demanded by the situation that well- thinklng and fair people may not be misled Into detraction of our thorough, ly orthodox and deeply learned rector. He will himself attend to any matter In which he t* personally Interested, and were he not fully In line with the moat orthodox, which Is to say. the moat thoroughly Christian devotion to the Bible which was given to the world by the church of which he Is a minister In holy things, he would not have the love and admiration and de voted following of his people and of a large part of the community In general, all of whom well know that he ha* been maligned by the turn Improperly given to the language actually ut tered. Dr. Wllmer Is also quoted as having stated that the King Jiunes version was "not Inspired." We do not suppose that any well-informed inan thinks that it was an Inspired volume, any more than he would claim Inspiration for the sev. eral varying "revised" version* of these latter days. All who are conversant with the ori gin of the authorised version know that It was the outcome of the scholarly la bors of men convoked In 1611 by King James to consider the many transla tions of those hallowed and "inspired" books which are recognised a* those which "holy men of God wrote as they were moved by the Spirit of Ood." when it comes to the consideration of these translatlops of these undent and re vered original sacred writings, whether such translations were made by Wfck- lyffe or Tyndale, Coverdale or Cran- mer. or as derived from the discoveries of later days, theologians may. differ and wrangle, but the essence of the revealed truths will not be afTected, whether that dlsrsjt^on comes from within this church which made the Bible tn Its hallowed shape of the au thorised version, or from others who have found In its pages a basis for dlf. ferences or minor and non-essential grounds. We believe that this presentation of the matter reflects the sentiment of the entire congregation of St. Lukes church, of which we are members, and It Is made In simple Justice and re spect to our absent rector, and It Is due the church and the public that this statement be so made.
