Then there was another matter which had given
great anxiety, and over which he had spent many
hours of WEAKNESS and agitation. For long time
there had begun to enter his mind serious misgv
ings as the truth Of Christianity. In vain had he
tried to paate, to reason, to argue with himself,
and to Danish these disquieting thoughts. In vain
had he battlcd with the unbeief that gradually

again had he endeavored to stem the current OF scep

which the Catholic Church and his early monkish
training had made him familiar Those had all lost
their meaning to him now. 1t seemed as if no
amount Of reasoning, as if no amount of argument
could dslodge his doubts and perplexities.

the Church, whose very fundamental principles am
convinced are based false issues? Am not a
sham and fraud !? And who knows but that the
mystery OF my parentage may be connected with my
waning faith in the efficacy of Christianity?" The
latter point, at any rate he determined to have clear
ed up without any further delay, and the follow

ed few of his more confidential ministers into his
private chamber and asked thenf they could throw
any light / his parentage.
