ears concerning it. have seen this
wholesome but intensely moving work,

pains to write to Mr., Brady convey

several days have since elapsed, the

We attended the play, my wife and |
had been trying to assist beautiful
woman who is just now in almost
exactly the situation in which poor
Anna Moore found herself. You can
then imagine perhaps what trench
dOus hold the play took upon us as
the terrible plot was revealed. 1t
seemed no play, but to us at least,
there seemed years of life's deepest
experience passing in reality before
us in those brief hours. As Il minis
ter | could but feel most keenly the
comparative impotence Of our pulpits
hearty all our pulplts are dealing
with these realities Of life-aS COM
pared with the power Of your unreal

putting this before the world. Long
