this station would be very
necessary to them. I see that they are a little vexed that
emigrants from their Societies should augment our membership.

The whole morning service of the Church of England is now read in
most of the Wesleyan Chapels, and with as much formality as in the
Church. Many of the members, when they become wealthy and rise in
the world, join the Church, and their wealth and influence are lost
to the Society. Organs are also introduced into many of their
Chapels.

In a letter dated London, Feb. 6th, 1832, Rev. Geo. Ryerson writes again
to Dr. Ryerson, and says that he and Peter Jones:

By request, met the Rev. Richard Watson, and some others of the
Missionary Committee. They wished to consult us respecting the
resolutions forwarded to them from your Missionary Committee. They
profess that they will not occupy any station where there is a
mission, as Grand River, Penetanguishene, etc., except St. Clair.
But they declare that as it regards the white population, the
agreement with the American Conference ceased when we became a
separate connexion. I opposed their views, as I have invariably
done, in very strong and plain terms, and explained to them the
character and object of the persons who were alluring them to
commence this schism. They proposed that we should give up the
missions to them. I told them we could no more do so, than they
give up theirs. They finally acquiesced, and voted the L300 as Rev.
Dr. Townley wrote. At the Conference, at Bristol, I explained that
a union of the two Conferences would be inexpedient and
unprofitable, any further than a union of brotherly love and
friendship.

In another letter to Dr. Ryerson from his brother George, dated London,
April 6th, 1832, he says:--

I have been detained so long on expenses, and continually advancing
money for the Central Committee at York, that I hope it will be
repaid to Peter Jones. I was a long time attending to the business
of my mission to bring it to the only practicable arrangement, that
is, having it submitted to the Legislature of Upper Canada, with
such recommendations and instructions as would give satisfaction to
the country by consulting the wishes and interests of all parties.
I have never before in my life been shut up to walk in all things
