Queen's Bench. I have no sympathy with you whatever."

Mr. D'Acerbity's law was good, but--what has justice to do with
"sympathies?" Surely the day after this report appeared the
magistrate must have had a letter from the Home Secretary?



VI-Popery and Protestantism in the Queen's Bench.

The application to the magistrate was far from satisfactory.
There had not even been an exposure, and the Windmill Bulletin
gayly bantered the Detectoral Association. Meanwhile had
happened the grand christening, of which a circumstantial account
was in the hands of the council of the Detectoral Association
shortly after the ceremony had been performed. Here was a
monstrous indignity to a Protestant child! The account was at
once printed, together with a verbatim report of the application
to the magistrate as well as one of "a conversation held with the
mother by an agent of the Association." Board-men paraded the
great thoroughfares carrying this appeal:--

PROTESTANT DETECTORAL ASSOCIATION.
--------
NO POPERY!
Abduction Of an Infant!
Assault on the Liberty of the Subject!
Mysterious and Awful Proceedings!
Baptism of a Protestant Child in a Convent!
