WOODFORD,

In company with others from Bon
nington, we went to Hoosick, N. Y, last
week Friday evening, to hear Robert G.
Ingersoll lecture. His subject was
"What shall we do to be saved?" We
do not regret going, for the thought was
paramount in our minds that our own
side Of the question would be strength
ened, and it was fully sustained. The
colonel is good talker, no one ques-
tions that; but it is as plain to be seen by
an intelligent listener as the MONDAY
sun, that nearly all his talk on the lee
ture platform is superficial. He de-
nounced the gospels of Matthew, Mark,
Luke and John as fallacious, and filled
with interpretations. Christ's life on
earth, he made nothing of it, but myth,
and the ascension the same. Strange
that he could get applause, even in Hoo
sick Falls, to such talkl But we suppose
the colonel had to talk in an unusual
strain to get his four hundred dollar
'fee," even were he struck dead on the
spot! We can truthfully say that an
honest investigation of the Scriptures on
the part of any infidel will lead to faith
in Jesus Christ. The life of the Saviour
refutes any and every argument infidel
ity ever produced against the Divine
origin of Christianity. The mind of
every honest individual, even if at times
he does not ''give vent to his thoughts"
does not, cannot, fail to see certain
freshness in the history of that life
which now seems supernal in its grand
uer, invincible in its power, and match
less in its eloquence. With Christ,
therefore, is to be found more than sur
face" talk. If any man or woman will
prove that Robert G. Ingersoll has ever
done any good, or made the world better
by his lectures on subjects that smack
strongly of infdelity, then milk and
water Christians might have reason to
''think the matter over;" and even in
that event there would be thought and
feeling of that something" which this
world cannot give in any way. On the
Continued on next page.I
