A. PASSAVANT. The above reference of Mr. Passavant to the Kev. Mr. Unonius brinfjs to light an important movement and crisis in the Scandinavian Lutheran Church of Chicago. The smooth and bland Episcopalians had succeeded in gaining over Unonius a Swede, and also a Norwegian student, and had Episeopally ordained them. These young men had thus become full-fledged Episcopal rectors and were enrolled among the clergy as mem- bers of the diocese of Illinois. It w^as the intention to use these reneg...ade Lutherans to entice other Lutherans into the Episcopal fold. The Chicago Lutherans had been unfortunate in having a disreputable character, named Schmidt, as their first minister. His career was short, but long enough to divide the Lutherans into two hostile factions. One became embittered against Schmidt and, as is so often the case, vented its hatred not only against him but against the Lutheran Church. Of this misfortune and disaffection, the Episcopalians took advantage and sent Unonius to Chicago to missionate among the dissatisfied ones.
