mans Sunday evening lecture.
It's authorship is tourfold, It's four
authors being no less than Mrs.
Helen Campbell, Rev. Lyman
Abbot, D. D., Col. Thomas W.
Knox, and Inspector Thomas
Byrnes, Chief of the New York
Detective Bureau.
Mrs. Campbell the principal
writer, certainly was a woman
commissioned Of God, and SIN His
Name spent many years as a
city missionary literally 'In
Darkest New York" What a
work, she did. How devoted and
blessed her labors. 1t is a story
never to be forgotten. This un-
ique volume presents these thrill
ling experiences of Christian
endeavor with the hundreds Of
pathetic and amusing scenes that
were packed into them; it por-
trays life in a great city by day
and by night "As Seen by Wo-
man." it shows the power of the
Gospel to redeem souls from the
lowest depths; it gives strikii g
testimonies of the redeemed; and
from these rich and varied exper-
ences it draws living truths for
head and heart that are worth to
any reader ten times the price of
the book. Mrs. Campbell's ac-
count of rescue-work is full of
wonderfully touching Incidents.
Stranger stories are here told than
romance ever dreamed of, every
one Of them drawn from real life
by a woman's hand. In every
chapter she weaves in anecdote
after anecdote, incident after Incl
dent, story after story, and the
readers attention is held breath
less to the end of the volume.
"Strange but most suggestive is
the fact" says Bishop Coke in
warmly commenting this volume,
"that Christ is to be visited in
these dens and dives; there are
those whom He will bear in mind
when he says: 'Ye visited me-;
or when he says; 'Ye did it not
to Me. =
Rev. DR.. Lyman Abbot's life
long interest in City N;Se''7'
work, and his personal share in
that work, prominently fitted
him to write for this book. In
his introduction he says
"My interest in these phases of
city life dates from my college
days. From that day to this
over a third of a century, have
continued the studies then begun,
and the subject of this book has
been one of the great subjects Of
my study-sometimes III litera-
ture, often in life.
