A moro striking figure than Cardinal Man

its way among the lost and suffering Of great
clty's slums. !" 1t was as II wrink!cd parch,

His figure was gaunt and bent Erect It
stopped 1t lowered above the shoulders OF
most men. His hair was thin and white.
His face was bony. dried. and drawn
the the face acc Of Scholar. nSnsi an uesoai aseetic.
In every angle anil wrinkle lay the force and
determination of knowledge. fearlessness. and
compassion. As he passed through the high
ways and byways Of the most abandoned parts
Of London, his hand was ever stretched out t?
greet. to bless, and to encourage; 11o ratted
the tangled hair Of the ragged boy in the
gutter. he spoke to the henrt Of tho poverty
stricken father. and gave the comfort Of his
faith to the mother staggering under her load
care and disappointment His strange faco
end form. his, simple clerical gurb. and his
quiet sympathetic words were welcome in
streets which most other great preates never
saw, and few who have got up far enough to
be able TO look down, ever think Of, Ills ,fnmo
as philanthropist will live. In london at least,
as long as his fame as u thinker and preacher.
