A gain it is asked , ' Should we build churches or chapels for the poor V I answer ^ that ^ wh | lfev-l-V--tliittk--tlii $ - mode or operation to be secondary in its claims ) and to promise' little in comparison with a daily ' arid hourly
ministratioh from house to house , yet aj ^ ojisjdej ^^ tne very poor , may be brought together on the eveiiihgs of Sunday , for social worship and instruction , and a few may be coUeeted for a service in the day , it is therefore well to Have
small and uriexpensive chapels " for these services . l But if a commodious hall may be 6 btsLitied , near the centre of the neighbourhood ' of a large number of tli 6 poor , I should not advise the erection of . a chapel . A
very large proportion of the poor , it is to be rejitiembered , frequently change their place of habitation ; and the parts of the city to wHich they remove are often far apart from one another . It will often , therefore , be

c ' ongregations , or religious societies , in the city ; while , if it shall be thought best , they may still be in the charge of the minister of the poor who has broiignt them into this connexion . I would say also , that not more < ihaii
