Excerpt from Union or Separation?: With Some Remarks Upon Number 1 and 2 of the New Series of S. Giles's Lectures
There can, I suppose, be no doubt whatever that, at the Restoration of the Monarchy and Episcopacy in 1660-1, a very large proportion of the clergy who had not received Episcopal ordination were allowed to remain in their parochial charges upon no other condition than that of acknowledging the office and authority of the Bishop of the Diocese. Dr. Grub writes None of the Bishops, except Bishop Mitchell [of Aberdeen, who died early in insisted on te-ordaining ministers who had received only Presbyterian ordina tion, though they did not refuse to do so when asked, vol. Iii., p. 215.
