World and Miss Church-Member come to the By-Path leading to the King's Highway; on this Miss Church-Member urges Mr. World to travel. He defers so decisive a step and defends his attitude by the use of sophistry. Miss Church-Member, still hoping to win Mr. World to a better path, forsakes the King's Highway and continues in his company.
Knowin' Bill's language on sech occasions ain't what a church-member ort to hear, I was makin' it convenient to leave, when along come her, an' he choked off ez suddin ez a feller on the gallers." Day by day the boys dug dirt, and carried it to the creek, and washed out the precious gold; day by day the denizens of Tough Case worked as many hours and as industriously as men anywhere.
Then I saw that she cast a longing glance over the rough hills toward the King's Highway, and looked for some path by which she might go thither. Her two wily companions endeavored to allay her fears by offering all manner of cajolements, none of which either diverted or quieted her mind. "O ye friends of mine!" cried Miss Church-Member, "I can find rest only on yonder King's Highway.
World thither?" "Miss Church-Member will be happier where she is," answered my uncanny companion as he grinned horribly. "By the aid of her glasses she can both see and enjoy the wonderful scenes along the way." I knew that Blackana was covering the truth, but hesitated to insinuate as much.
"We are journeying to a place called Heaven," promptly answered Miss Church-Member. "Congratulations, indeed," spoke the stranger as he smiled. "You belong to the better class of travelers. Some, I fear, who go this way will miss Heaven. They are too much attracted by the frivolities of life and never have a desire to go to church." "But we love the church," spoke up Mr. World.
One universal contribution to the support of the minister all over New England was cord-wood; and the "minister's wood" is an institution up to the present day in the few thickly wooded districts that remain. A load of wood was usually given by each male church-member, and he was expected to deliver the gift at the door of the parsonage.
That had been also Babcock's former conception of a good time, and though he had dimly in mind that he was now a husband and church-member, he strove to conduct himself in such a manner as to maintain his self-respect without becoming a spoil sport. During the first day at the fair Babcock managed to preserve this nice distinction.
Gregory came to Littleburg, a complete stranger and when he married, she was a devoted church-member always went, and took great interest in all his schemes to help folks folks at a distance, you understand...She just devoured that religious magazine he edits yes, I'll admit, his religion shows up beautifully in print; the pictures of it are good, too. Old Mrs.
World nor Miss Church-Member was permitted to see. It was the daily graduating class of this school of suicide. Each member of the class was instructed by what new method he might rend the strand of life with his own hand, in the desperate and sickening hope of finding rest "where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched." I quickly turned from this revolting spectacle, and saw that Mr.
Their numbers, moreover, must have been large, for Boston had grown to be a town of 5000 inhabitants, the population of Massachusetts was approaching 30,000, and, according to Hutchinson, scarcely one grown man in five was a church-member qualified to vote or hold office. Such a fact speaks volumes as to the change which was coming over the Puritan world.
