CHAPTER xxx.
Hand in Hand.

Hand in Hand.
 Rev. Smith Boyd walked slowly out into the dim church. with the little vol ume in his hand. The afternoon sun had sunk so low that the illumination from the stained-glass windows was cut of by the near buildings, and the patches of ruby and of sapphire, of emerald and of topaz, glowed now near the tops of the slender columns, or mellowed the dusky spaces up amid the arches.
 It was hushed and silent there. de- serted. and far from the thoughts of men. The young rector walked slowly up the aisle to a pew in the corner near the main entrance, and sat down, still with the little Book of Common Prayer in his hand. and. in the book. the Articles of Religion. From them alone must he preach; nothing mere and nothing less. That was the duty for which he was hired.

Men; men like himself.
 Rev. Smith Boyd had no need to read those Articles of Religion. He had been over them countless times, and he knew them by heart, from be- ginning to end. He had opened wide the credulity of his mind, and had forced his belief into these channels. so that he might preach the gospel, not of Christ. but of his church, with a clean conscience. And he had done so. Whatever doubts there had lurked in him. from that one period Of in6- delity in his youth, he had shut of be- hind a solid wall over which he would not peer.

And yet you have the effrontery to say that Divine Providence would estab- fish you in your monopoly. by such scoundrelly means as you have risen to become the greatest dispenser of self-advertising charities in the world, You propose to ride into heaven on your universities and your libraries, and on the fact that you never smoked nor drank nor swore nor gambled; but when you come face to face with this horrible new god you have ere ated, deity who would permit you to attain wealth by the vile methods you have used. you will find him with a pitchfork in his hands, I am glad that Doctor Boyd. though knowing your vindictive record, has had bray cry enough to demand your resigna- tion from this vestry. I hope he re- ceives it,'
 Joseph G. Clark had remained standing, and his head shook, as with palsy, while he listened to the charge of Manning. He was a very old man. and it had been quite necessary for him to restrain his passions through out his life.
 You will go first!" he shouted at Manning. 'I am impregnable; but you have no business on this vestry! You can be removed at any time an examination is ordered. for I have heard you, we have all heard you. deny the immaculate conception, and thereby the divinity of Christ, in whom alone there is salvation,"
