     Uniformity in religious and ecclesiastical matters sure is so excellent and desirable again, that certainly an establishment, somewhat less perfect, with "being of the same mind so far as we have attained," and with a regular and effectual observation of good laws, is more expetible, than an appointment, in some cases more perfect, without the same uniform order and peace therewith.
