Trinity Okarak Opposed. Dr. Lloyd's name waa proposed by Dr. Van Waters of 81 David's church. Fol lowing the election of Dr.. Lloyd aa bishop coadjutor came a protest on the grounds of misrepresentation as to his qualifications, and the lay delegates also filed a proteat because of the evidence received by a, number of Episcopalians tending to show that he waa not a safe or fit man to preside over church af fairs In Oregon. It waa generally known at the time that the leading factor In the op posi tion to the confirmation of Dr. Lloyd was Trinity church of this city. The force of that revolt against the newly elected coadjutor waa due to the fact that, some of the members of that church were In possession . of docu mentary evidence . which made Dr. Lloyd's assumption of office an Impos sibility.' ,. , - . i To protest an election such aa bis requires by the rules of the Episcopal church the very gravest of charges, and to this fact was due the sensation which waa 'created In church circles at , the time.
