themselves the cynosure OF all eyes
Wouu become somewhat familiar
with the statements OF some OF the
EIx4PrIests,, relative to the Catholic
church views on the conjugal reIa-
tions Of all others, even including
such writer's, and what their children
are, they might think twice, before
rushing in ana so nobly, gladly and

WilfuIly made the Misrepresentation
I win leave it to a majority vote of
those present as to the truthfulness
of EVERY Statement in question.

,. The quotation, or rather misquo

She quotes me as saying IAN the
ministers in Grand Rapids believe

to set up and sayWhattheybeIieY
Now, what | said was this: 'PRAC-
TIQAIILY all the PROTESTANT min
listers IN Grand Rapids believe as Z
do, tho PERHAPS S.0MB OF THEM
are afraid to get up and say so PUB
LICLY." She omitted the words
have Capitalized, which materially
changes my statement, and places the
same before the people in a false
light | would NOT think OF saying
that ALL Of the Protestant pastors
would he afraid TO speak against so
gross an error as Romanism. l know
that some of them do, tho perhaps
not AL publicly.

Baptism, will say, that we baptize
BECAUSE THE PERSON HAS AL
READY BEEN SAWED, having had
his sins washed away with the pre-
cious 5Iood of Jesus Christ, and pic
uring 10 the World the death Of the
candidate to the old life of sin and
resurrection 10 a new life, ard also
the death. burial and resurrection of
Christ. We believe and leach that
it is an act of OBEDIENCE, and
NEVER DID and NEVER WILL
