Dr. Jowett, the Nonconformist minister of Westminster Chapel, preached the

sermon last Sunday evening in Durham Cathedral to a congregation of some 7,000 persons. The occasion was marred by one unseemly act of bigotry. A clergyman of the Church of England, the Rev. P. T. Casey, rose to his feet and protested loudly against Dr. Jowett being allowed to preach. He repeated his interruptions till he was removed. The congre- gation afterwards listened with deep attention and appreciation to Dr. Jowett.
