EXCOMMUNICATION VOID. BISHOP TAKES ACTION. LONDON,' Friday. The Bishop of Durham has written to the vicar of Pelton, near Chester-le-Street, enjoining him to give public notice next Sunday that the sentence of excommunication on three parishioners is wholly null and void, and forbidding any attempt to exclude the parishioners from worship at his church. The Bishop added: "Your action is entirely unauthorised and contraay to ecclesiastical law.” A similar letter was forwarded to the churchwardens, asking them to inform the Bishop after Sunday whether his instructions had been carried out.
