This journal, never regular, becomes from this time quite broken.
Looking back from this point, which to the Dean seemed the end of happiness, he could acknowledge how duty supplied the place of pleasure.
He was grateful also for many mercies.

In one respect he was singularly fortunate.

His Bishop and he, I may say during all the time he served in St.John's, were cordially of the same way of thinking.

Bishop Terrot was indeed a very different man from himself, but in the relations of Bishop and Dean they were very happy.

The Dean wrote a little memoir of Bishop Terrot, which he published in the _Scottish Guardian_ (May 15, 1872), where he prints the remarkable letter from the Bishop to himself, answering the question why he declined communion with Mr.Drummond, and ending with the sentence--"These are matters of _ecclesiastical police_ which each local church has a right to manage in its own way, subject to the law of the Catholic Church, i.e.the Bible." The Dean then bore testimony that he had always found his Bishop an interesting companion, a kind friend, a faithful and judicious adviser, and he speaks highly, and surely not too highly, of his great intellectual powers, as well as of his moral qualities.
