761. Copy of letter from four justices of the peace to the Bishop of Nova Scotia: ''We lament the Necessity for informing you, that the Situation of the Church of England in this Place is truly alarming and Distressing to Us. We forbear to be particular at present - hoping that you, Right Reverend Sir, will soon visit the Church here; but if unfortunately your Health should not permit a Voyage to this Town, We request, that you will please to direct a Clergyman (of Experience) to Visit us - to learn whatsoever is true respecting our Church.''
