DEMAND FOR POSSESSION
CAMBRIDGE PARISH DISPUTE. RECTOR’S CHALLENGE TO SYNOD. By Telegraph—Press Association. Cambridge, May 22. The latest developments in the parish dispute is a demand by the chancellor of the diocese on the Rev. G. G. Bell for possession of the vicarage and all church property within seven days, failing which a summons for possession will be issued. Mr. Bell has replied that he will be willing to hand over everything as soon as the bishop has satisfied Mr. Bell that he has acted fully within the canons of the General Synod in declaring the living at Cambridge vacant and assuming control of the parish. Mr. Bell has made a solemn protestation to Archbishop Averill as Metropolitan, two bishops and prominent members of the General Synod. In a further statement to-day Mr. Bell challenges a number of statements made by the bishop and Messrs. H. D. Dallimore, C. W. Boyce and W. Sands at the annual meeting of parishioners at Cambridge last week.
