According id ibe ' 'Bubrk ^ Uy Jbaptism is valid , in cases of necessity ; but to secure the
validity , I apprehend th # tit , m requisite the church service should be used ; aa&Mttuftigh a drssentef baptizing iiTt&e ^ if ^ rtte of the Father , Son ,
gB ( fc If dry Ghost , might by special favdtfr or courtesy be tolerated , the imitation of the Apostles , who baptised in the fcafne of the Lord J&ms , would ^ it appears ^ be sef ^ ely reprobated *
The infant interred at Ipswich had been baptized in the latter mode \ and on a presumption that Unitarian baptism was not valid , was , in consequence , deposited without the church service
being read over it . In the course of a few months ^ a child of another branch of the same family dted also : the latter had been baptized agreeably to the canons of fbfe establishment $ the infant was
taken up and removed into the church porch , whilst the service was read over its relative ^ and then deposited in the same grave . I shaft dflfer no comment on this
circittnstance , \ - especially as the gentteffif ^ who ' conscientiously -reftj&ed ^ W bury the firs t , declares , tntft h < e ^ vili pot refuse in any silpjtetf ffrtbrfc occurrence . If he tf&& ^ at * fcientiously influenced in

The greater number of " the bu * s rial places are now composed of mouldered human bodies j and it wbuld be the means of sjufteriifg numbers of our predecessors to become dust and ashes without
interruption , if in every town some spot of ground were set apart for the interment of dissenters . Why not appropriate some large garden or field , with walks and trees , that the living might have a promenade well adapted for
peripatetic meditation , as well as exercise . Lincoln ' s Inn and pray ' s Inn Gardens might be considered the models , and under the superi ^ i - tendance of a garcjenerand a gravedigger , the ground might be kept in neat simplicity , and the gates
opened to all orderly persons at certain hours of the , day . In the opinion of * raany , burial places ought to be selected oti t ^ outside of a town .: but may ^ wa
