Excerpt from The Eucharist a Sacrament and a Sacrifice: A Sermon, Preached at Birch Church, on Sunday, the 5th of July, 1846, Being the Sunday Immediately Following the Consecration I have no doubt, my dear Sir, you will agree with me as to the good feeling, good taste, and prudence shewn by these Reverend Gentlemen in attacking a High Churchman of the last generation, who, after passing a long and honoured life, full of mercy and aims-deeds. Has been for many years gone to his reward. However, on seeing these state ments I thought it right to address a line to the Hon. And Rev. Geo. Spencer, who, though he has left the Church of England, is still a Christian Gentleman, and he has put it 1n my power to state the two following facts from his answer to my letter. I. That the Protestant clergyman, who is mentioned as having given him an impression favourable to Romanism, was not the late Rev. Thos. Sikes, but another clergyman of very different sentiments, whose name is stated in Mr. Spencer's letter, but which I shall not make public, as it is enough for me to have contradicted the charge against Mr. Sikes.
