PEER TELLS WHY HE
BECAME AN ISLAMITE
Intolerance Of PrOfessed Chris
tians and MOhammedan
Sincerity Two Causes.
SpeciaL Coble D.spdtch 10 THs srS

LONDON. Nov. l6.-Baron Headley. who.
it was announced yesterday. had embraced
the religion OF Islam. said he has held the
tenets Of that faith for twenty years, al
though he was never publicly identified
with II.
THE intolerance of prof.ssed Chris
tians." he said. "is more than anything
else responsible for my secession. You
never hear Mohammedars speak OF per-
sons OF another religion as We hear Chris
tians talk OF one another. They may be
sorry others do not hold to the Mohamme.
dan belief but they do not condemn them
to everlasting dsmnation.
The purity and simplicity Of Moham-
mechanism. its freedom from dogma and
sacerdotalism. its obvious truths. appeal
to me. Moreover. the earnestness and sim
cerity Of the Mohammedans is greater
than anything I have seen among Chris
tians. The ordinary Christian dons re-
lgion on Sunday and discards II the res,
OF the week. The Mohammedan on the
contrary. does not distinguish one day
from another He is always thinking
what he can do in God service"
Lord Headley still contends that he is a
Christian to the extent of believing that
Christ was an inspired teacher and that
he is following his teachings.
