	Nec Tamen Consumebatur: The Free Church of Scotland and the Crisis of 1900
		The Disruption took place when the Evangelical party in the Church of Scotland, under the leadership of Chalmers, left the established Church to form the Church of Scotland, Free (later to be called the Free Church of Scotland).
		The immediate cause of the Disruption was the insistence by the civil courts that the Established Church had to ordain men to the parish ministry irrespective of their acceptability to the parishioners.
		The Disruption was not intended to be a disruption, or division, of the Church.

	Dr Chalmers (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		He established this function and role within the Kirk from 1834 but the Church came into the ten years of conflict with the state (ultimately over lay patronage related to the anti-landlordism that was strong in the country).
		He became a rather reluctant leader of the Great Disruption in that it led to 451 of 1200 ministers and a third of its members forming a Free Kirk.
		Chalmers was fearful of the urban masses, whom in 1847 he called profligate, profane and heathen, and saw as a threat to the social order and a disgrace to Christian civilisation (see Devine, 1999, 368).

		The Scottish Church had been split between Moderate and Evangelical ministers - encompassing differences in social matters as well as ecclesiastical differences - for a considerable part of the early nineteenth century.
		Situations came to a head at a session of the General Assembly of the Kirk in Edinburgh in 1843.
		Around forty per cent of the ministry of the Kirk and nearly sixty per cent of their entire population left to form the independent Free Church of Scotland.

	Disruption of the Church of Scotland (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Since then, a major bound volume was acquired from the Library of the Free Church College in Edinburgh with 110 pieces of primary material, mainly consisting of broadsides of petitions (signed), notices, monthly statements, posters, etc. These documents date from November 1842 to August 1845 and concern the establishment of the Free Church of Scotland.
		Also included are pamphlets, beginning as early as 1817, concerning the problems which led to the Disruption; pamphlets by the eventual leaders in the schism from this early period; and pamphlets from the post-Disruption era to the 1890s, when attempts were made to re-unite the various splinter churches.
		As a number of Scottish historians have interpreted it, the disruption of the Church of Scotland and the formation of the Free Kirk in 1843 was next to the Reformation in importance in the history of modern Scotland.

	The Orcadian Features - New era for a rock of ages
		Between then and 1843, other sects were formed, most of which were more liberal than the original seceders – the Relief Church, the Old Scotch Independents and the Congregationalists.
		The events of the Disruption of 1843, however, had an immediate effect in Kirkwall, largely due to the fact there had already been a breakaway from the Cathedral with the formation of a “chapel of ease” or extension Church of Scotland congregation called the East Kirk.
		At the Disruption of 1843, Rev Petrie was one of the ministers who came out of the Church of Scotland.

		Very shortly after the church was built the Disruption took place and the minister, George Smeaton, and many of the congregation joined the Free Church.
		For the first two Sundays after the Disruption the Morningside Free Church adherents continued to meet in the Parish Church until, being threatened with expulsion, tried to hold services in the Old Schoolhouse opposite what is now the western end of Falcon Avenue.
		Braid was not a Parish Church, the prerogative of the established Church of Scotland, but after the disruption in 1843 various 'Free' Churches had been established, of which Braid was a member of the United Presbyterian Church.

		Indeed it was the Disruption which brought the Achreny Mission to an end as a mission, because the Free Church soon afterwards disjoined the Mission and made arrangements for ministers to be settled in the different parts.
		In October 1843 the second Free Church General Assembly met in Glasgow, with Robert Rose Mackay, "minister of Dirlet", as a commissioner from the Presbytery of Caithness.
		Meanwhile, from the time of the Disruption, the intention of the Free Church had been to separate Halladale from Achreny and Halsary and to join it to the Strathy congregation, but this does not seem to have taken effect until 1847, when Strathy became a sanctioned charge.

		Founded at the Disruption of 1843, the Free Church was to be one of the dominant forces in Victorian Scotland, and yet even as it exercised this power it began to unravel.
		The author places this event in its ecclesiastical context, arguing that the Second Disruption was a product of the Liberalization of attitudes towards the creed and theology in the Free Church.
		He also argues that the split of 1893 was a result of the fundamental divided in Scottish society between highlands and lowlands, and that the fashionable pseudo-science of race played an important role in forming opinions among significant sections of the lowland Free Church.

	Robert Murray McCheyne (1813-1843): A Study of an early Nineteenth Century Scottish Evangelical
		The purpose of this thesis is to show how Robert Murray McCheyne exemplified the Evangelical ministry of the Church of Scotland during the time just prior to the Disruption of 1843.
		Because of his short life (he died at the age of twenty-nine), and an abundance of his personal manuscript writings, it was possible to be specific and detailed about these phases of his life, which witnessed the Evangelical ascendancy, the "Ten Years' Conflict," the rise of missionary activity, and the Disruption.
		These movements not only typified the rise of the Evangelical mood in Scotland, but were also instrumental in preparing the way among the people for the Disruption and the Free Church.

		Following the Scottish Disruption, the Tasmanian church declared for Free Church principles while remaining connected to the established church in Scotland.
		A Free Church presbytery was established in 1853 and united with the Church of Scotland Presbytery in 1896 to form the Presbyterian Church of Tasmania.

		John Knox, Andrew Melville, the National Covenant of 1638, the Covenanters and the Disruption of 1843 all illustrate the fact that the Scottish Church, whilst being prepared to recognise the authority of the secular power, was also prepared to follow the higher authority when there was a conflict.
		It is not the purpose of this essay to go into the history of the 1843 Disruption.
		There is one further aspect of the duty of the Church to society that was vital to the Disruption fathers and must be vital to us education.

		He utilises a vast range of sources to offer varied perspectives on the issue and his use of primary sources, many unseen before, gives a very human angle on the personalities involved, previously only deified or demonised in presbyterian culture.
		The disruption - or secession (words are very loaded in this sphere) - becomes almost inevitable as MacLeod builds his case.
		Although I would not describe the Free Presbyterian Secession of 1893 in this way, Macleod has demonstrated that the men who formed the FP Church were very much the product of their (Highland) times, and that in some ways the split that took place within the late-19th century Free Church was inevitable.

	The New Penguin History of Scotland (Houston, Knox)
		There are no diagrams, graphs, maps, or tables to break up the text, but division of chapters into sections and subsections prevents monotony.
		The chapter divisions sometimes break logical connections -- the discussion of religion in the 1707 to 1832 chapter is awkwardly separated from the account of the 1843 Disruption of the church, for example, and the discussion of the 1707 Union is split between two chapters.
		The long chapters have their advantages, however, allowing the authors to articulate sustained arguments and to interpret and not just describe events.

		St Andrew's Parish Church, Kilmarnock, was built as a chapel of ease for the mill-workers in its vicinity in 1841.
		In the wake of the 1843 Disruption, which led to the formation of the Free Church of Scotland, they revolted and joined the Free Church in 1844 and formed a new congregation called Free St Andrew's in Faulds Street, Kilmarnock, depleting what was still the relatively new congregation of St Andrew's Parish Church.
		At the 1929 union of churches, Free St Andrew's became part of the Church of Scotland and became known as St Andrew's North Church.

		The eldest son, Robert, crofted in Sanday for a time, and was no doubt grateful for what his father did for the island’s crofting community in 1888.
		In the immediate aftermath of the 1843 Disruption, having no property of its own, the Free Church was obliged to embark upon a programme of building – churches to house the congregations, manses to house the ministers and schools in which to teach the children.
