United Presbyterians Oppose Scotch Patronage Bill Debate
At a cloning meeting the United Presbyterian Synod reports on the Duke of Richmond’s Patronage Bill. The proposal would repeal Queen Anne 1812 and Lord Aberdeen 1843, vest patronage in male communicants, and pay patrons a one year stipend via parish subscriptions. The Synod urges disestablishment and disendowment and pressed petitions to Parliament to end patronage and end state control.
