But knowing also that THIS resort was open to me when all others had failed, I resolved to wait and watch. Two days passed, and nothing occurred. My watching seemed hopeless, and I resolved to try the effect of a disguised interrogatory. It might help to confirm my already settled conviction, if it did not elicit any new evidence.
Day after day we toiled on, aided by the indefatigable natives, who gave every evidence that they were working from pure Christian love.
At once raising her hand, she was sworn, and proceeded directly to state that part of the transaction she had witnessed on the lake, which the hunter, in the conversation she found means to have with him while waiting to be taken into court, had advised her was all that would be important as evidence in the case.
And, if the substance of the soul is defined as that in which perceptions inhere, what is meant by the inherence? Is such inherence conceivable? If conceivable, what evidence is there of it?

"As a popular compendium of Christian Evidence, we thoroughly recommend this volume." Noncomformist. "It bears the impress of a clear and vigorous understanding. Dr. Cumming has done great service to the cause of Divine Revelation by the publication of it."
We could have extended this empirical law to cases adjacent in time, though not to so great a distance of time as we can now. Having evidence that the effects had remained unaltered and been punctually conjoined for five thousand years, we could infer that the unknown causes on which the conjunction is dependent had existed undiminished and uncounteracted during the same period.
Such a conclusion would be formed, if no particular evidence in support of it could be adduced; but when corroborated by the two Hutchinsons, Mr. Hale, and, in effect, by Mather himself, it cannot be shaken.
"The first is certainly true, under limitations that we all understand; but as to the last, I will own I want more evidence than a newspaper eulogy to believe it." After all, my uncle Ro is sometimes mistaken; though candour compels me to acknowledge that he is very often right.
