Scottish Protest Against Lord Aberdeen's Bill Sparks Debate

In Scotland the protest against the tried Repeal or Lord Aberdeen's Bill draws dissentients citing that it declares laws not yet in force, grants church court powers, and undermines patrons rights. Breadalbane and others argue it intrudes on church government, curtails spiritual independence, and transfers crown and lay patronage to Presbyterian church authorities. A separate note from Breadalbane details broader objections. A whale capture at North Queen's Ferry is described with dramatic detail, praising the hunters and comparing the feat to grand spectacles.
