Mr Lauria declares • that he did not use unlawful rites and i ceremonies. He taught nothing unlawful.— Australian Press Association-United Service. Recently five of those who took part in a demonstration at St. Cuthbert’s were summoned for brawling at divine service ' and bound over in their own recognisances to keep the peace for a year. The defendants pleaded that their act was a protest against the Romish practices. The vicar, the Rev. E. Lauria, claimed that he absolutely kept his induction oath, and did not admit the reservation.
