Dear Sir.-Several times during the

quotation, THAT which is morally

It's a truism. no matter who was the
author: but the quotation is taken
from q delivered in Whining
ton, N. c.. during the fall of 1906 by
Rev. Peyton r. Hoge. a nephew of the
distinguished Richmond divine, and
then pastor of the First Presbyterian
Church, of Wilmington.

quotation to print the entire sermon.

DIR. Moses d.. Hoge. used the expression
