As for the Come-Outers, they professed to believe that their leader had much the best of the encounter, so they were satisfied. There was a note of triumph and exultation in the "testimony" given on the following Thursday night, and Captain Eben divided his own discourse between thankfulness for his son's safe return and glorification at the discomfiture of the false prophets.
But, far's the minister's concerned, didn't I hear of your Uncle Eben sayin' in prayer meetin' only a fortni't or so ago that all hands who wa'n't Come-Outers were own children to Satan? Mr. Ellery must take after his father some. Surprisin', ain't it, what a family the old critter's got." The girl laughed again.
I sailed to Cronstadt for some years regular. Cronstadt is in Rooshy, Mr. Ellery." "Russia, pa," snapped his daughter. Then she changed the subject to church and parish affairs. They spoke of the sewing circle and the reading society and the Friday-evening meetings. "The Come-Outers are so vexed with us," tittered Miss Annabel, "that they won't even hold prayer meeting on the same night as ours.
The nest, holding probably one or two little ones, was visited, the first hour almost exactly once in twenty minutes, by madame exclusively, and the three succeeding hours at longer intervals, by her spouse. Scarcely a move was made there; plainly there were no more "come-outers" that day.
And I answer you that I find here those who were brought up in every kind of belief; some who are from the Roman Catholic Church; some from the Jewish; some Trinitarians; some Unitarians; some from the Swedenborgian Church; some who are Liberals; some who are called "Come-Outers," and Mr. P., who professes to be, and is more like an infidel than any other man I ever saw.
"Art thee not a fisher of men, friend, as well as a fisher of fish?" "I am a Christian man," he said, "of the sect called 'come-outers,'1 and have had experience, and when I meet the brethren, sometimes I speak a word in season." 1 Come-outers.
Then she said, without looking up: "That's good. I own up I like to hear you say it. And I am glad there are some things I do like about this new place of mine. Because well, because there's likely to be others that I shan't like at all." On Friday evening the minister conducted his first prayer meeting. Before it, and afterwards, he heard a good deal concerning the Come-Outers.
"The man you married?" he replied. "Why, the man you married is dead." "No, he ain't. You remember the letter you saw me readin' that night when you come back from Come-Outers' meetin'? Well, that letter was from him. He's alive." For the first time during the interview the minister rose to his feet, shocked out of his despair and apathy by this astounding revelation. "Alive?" he repeated.
The editor, who sells it to the public By the way, the papers have been very civil haven't they? to the the what d'ye call it? "Northern Magazine" isn't it? got up by some of those Come-outers, down East, as an organ for their local peculiarities. The Professor has been to see me. Came in, glorious, at about twelve o'clock, last night. Said he had been with "the boys."
These religious denominations were really political parties, and while the Puritans belonged to neither, calling themselves Independents, their hearts were with the persecuted Presbyterians, because they were come-outers for conscience' sake, while the Episcopalians never were. Old Noll called Episcopalians, "bastard Catholics," and it is no wonder his ears burned.
