The Church of South India

SIR,—May I thank Bishop Hollis for his moving account of the first five years of the Church of South India. I believe that many laymen like myself see in the great act of faith taken at Madras five years ago one shining hope for divided Christendom. It is for that reason that not a few who attended the recent World Faith and Order Conference at Lund will take away as their most abiding memory the opportunity twice given them to share in the South India Communion rite.

May we all seek to learn from this great act of the younger missionary

(Procurator of The Church of Scotland.) Edinburgh.
