Much Feeling Against DIR. Bliss.
NEW YORK, Sept. 30.-There is said to |
exist in Washington and elsewhere, among
the members of Christian Churches, con- |
siderable feeling directed mainly against
DR.. Bliss, in regard to the prohibition laid
by the surgeons on the visits OF Christian
ministers to the sick room Of the late Presi-
dent. The Sun says, now that the grave
has closed over the remains Of the late
President, one fact stands out which cam
fail to excite painful emotion, especially
In view OF the eulogies pronounced on his
christian character during his long. and
trying illness, which his chief physicians
have recently declared was incurable from
the outset. There is no record that he was
ever visited by q minister Of the gospel,
any religious service was performed
at his bedside, or that his sufferings were
soothed by religious consolation in any
form. No man is pure enough in life. not |
to need preparation for Eternity, and thank |
is every true Christian for time for re-
pentance before the fual summons. Who
ever may be responsible for this extraordf- |
nary omission, must look back to the last
opportunity with sad feelings. 1t was per-
haps proper, from a medical point OF view,
opinions differ widely on this
point in the profession, to isolate the pa
as was done. But above the Cabinet,
above friends, even above the kindred, the
door should have always been open for q
minister of Christ, who carries with him
the symbol of faith, hope and salvation,
Why it was kept closed we do not know,
but the fact shocks the moral sensibilities
q Christian people.
