      pleted , that noble Lord ' s indisposition unfortunately took plaeeV The business was then referred t <> him , ( Lord Holland , ) but the short duration bf the session ^ and he having also been subject to indibpos ^ tion , renaered it impossible to bring the subject sooner before their lordships . He

      stated these things merely that the delay might b ^ accotmted f < Jr , ^ nd tfefct Vf m time at which the petition was presented might not operate to the prejudice of tfcfe ' petitioner . With - ' resect td •^• Ae- - f ^ u ^ se he was about to purisite ^ he cotifessed that it would Certainly have been more

      consistent with the usuarpraetace if lie ha ^ merely introduced it , moved that it be Jaid on the table , and afterwards have founded some motion on it ; but he thought it more candid towards the Rev , Prelate , of whose conduct the petitioner complained , an < J other members of that House referred

      to in it , to state at once the course he meant to pursue . With regard to the petitioner himself , of whom he knew nothing before be had communicated with him on the subject of the petition , he must say that he had always found him acting in the most fair and candid man * ner in every thing connected with the

      affair of which he complained . The ordinary course would now be- to state merely the purport of the petition , but in doing so , he would make such observations as the circumstances suggested . The petitioner was a clergyman of the diocese of Exeter , and attended on the day specified in the petition a county

      meeting , called to consider the claims of the Catholics . A gentleman , adverse to the claims of that body of Christians , made a speech , to which the petitioner replied . Soon after this meeting , he was appointed to two livings , and obtained from three neighbouring clergymen &h $ testimonials usually required for

      institution , * n order to thfeMr being countersigned by his diocesan . These testimonials stated , in the customary terms , that the parties subscribing them had known Mr , Jones for three years ; that he had du » ring that time led a sober and pious life , and had never ivrJfcfeft * or done' any thing contrary to the doetdnek of the ! Ghurch

      of England .
