A Pair Of Pnritans.

This was the subject OF DIR, William l.,
Howard's lecture last Friday evening in
the Leland and Gray seminary course OF
lectures at the Baptist church, On one oo'
casion when Oliver Cromwell was sitting
for a portrait, the lecturer related, the
painter asked ii the mole upon his face
should be painted. With characteristic
Puritan honesty he demanded the mole
to be retained II was in this way the
speaker desired to consider his heroes.
But especially the Puritan. II was beau
tiful tribute he paid in personal way TO
this great people. "What | may possess of
moral and intellectual strength / owe 10
the Puritans: my weakness to myself.
His story began in Old England, and a
number of exceedingly interesting letters
written by John and Margaret Winthrop,
were read. The one after they were mar.
ried II years brought forth facetious
comment from the speaker which was en-
joyed by all, From this correspondence
he was enabled to make clear some I'M
truthful opinions most tenaciously held in
our time. He proved the Puritans' be-
lief in the whole Bible, some believing the
New Testament to have been neglected by
them From an extensive perusal OF SER
mons written by Purtans of that time he
pointed out the fallacy OF such an idea.
He firmly believes that the Indians We're
never better treated than by the Puri
tans, not an acre of land ever being ac
quired from the Red Man without suf
iicient settlement being made. Many of
the leading historians believed this and
those who favor the Red Man recognize it |
reluctantly, Yet the speaker conceded |
that in four particulars a good case might |
be made out. Roger Williams's Danish. /
