In his interesting article on order and disorder in church, Paul Barber cited Abrahams and Ors v. Cavey. The case is also cited by others writing on related matters. It has both social and legal aspects which it was not germane to Barber's purpose to develop, and this note is intended to remind readers of an event which may have attracted their attention and interest at the time.
