"To show the difference, let me rather say the contrast, between the point of view of Mr. Motley and my own, between the Unitarian and the Evangelical belief. Faithful to the device of the Reformers: Justification by faith alone, and the Word of God endures eternally. I consider history from the point of view of Merle d'Aubigne, Chalmers, Guizot.
The attack was now expected every minute, but hour after hour passed and the natives did not re-appear. At three o'clock in the morning Chalmers turned in, but he had not long been asleep when his wife discovered the cannibals approaching. Chalmers, aroused by his wife, ran to the door and faced the savages. 'What do you want? he asked.
For about an hour and a half the band of Christians waited for the attack to be made. Many of them were, naturally enough, much distressed at the thought of being killed and eaten, but throughout this trying time Jane Chalmers remained calm, assured that whatever might happen would be in accordance with God's will. But the Chalmers' life-work was not yet ended.
Keep your eye on the end man you'll have him splitting his legs if you don't wait for him. Column left, march one, two, three, four now you're all right off with you that's better! Put a little pep into your feet, Chalmers, for God's sake if you go marching into Berlin like that they'll think it's the hospital squad!

"By the way," called Chalmers with a curious smile as Bobby opened the door; "I've just learned that one of the foremost enthusiasts in this whole manipulation has been quiet and conservative Silas Trimmer." Bobby did not swear. He simply slammed the door. Two days later Bobby was surprised to see Sharpe drop in upon him.
"I've got the whole eight of them, and I can lay my hands on all the rest of their cursed club any minute I like." "Have you any evidence?" asked Whiteley. "Any evidence on which to convict?" "I've no evidence worth speaking of," said Chalmers, "unless the girl can identify them. But I know I've got the right men." "The girl won't know them," said Whiteley. "They're sure to have worn masks.
