Ransome said, "I don't mind a man being large and yellowish, or even soft in reason; but when he shines, too, I draw the line." Henkel had thick hands with bent fingers, and large, brown eyes. He was a Hollander, and in that place he stood apart. For he didn't drink, or gamble, or fight, or even buy rubber. He was just a large, peaceful person who bought things cheap. He was very clever.
"Oh, well, Henkel is a mighty good fellow, at heart. He'll cool down and come around all right." At that instant, however, Midshipman Henkel, with a deep scowl on his face, was whispering mysteriously with his roommate Brimmer. Another week had passed. By this time all of the new midshipmen had had a very strong taste of what the "grind" is like at the U.S. Naval Academy.
He stood facing the other, watching him with a slightly contemptuous expression in his clear blue eyes. 'We meet under different conditions from the last time, continued Henkel. 'There is now no Othman Pacha to protect you from your just fate. Ken shrugged his shoulders. 'Why talk that sort of rot? You know just as well as I do that the last thing we shall get is justice.
"It's a mighty good thing that Darrin is going to be dropped out of Annapolis," growled Henkel to himself. "He's altogether too slick in playing a dirty trick on people and then swinging them around so that they'll fawn upon him. When Farley first came here he was a fellow of spirit. But he's been going bad for some time, and now he's come out straight and clean for grease-mark!"
Ambrose was minister at New Market, and a member of the New Market publishing firm. Andrew, the fourth son, was pastor in Ohio. David, the fifth son, was the most gifted of the Henkel family. A clear, able, and undaunted theologian, he was preeminent in zealously defending the Lutheran truth. He died 1831, at the early age of thirty-six years.
March 14, 1820, Philip Henkel had written to his brother: "If I am spared, I shall attend synod. . . . If the old ministers will not act agreeably to the Augsburg Confession, we will erect a synod in Tennessee."
In the "Conclusion" of his "Objections" to the constitution of the General Synod, David Henkel said: "We do not expect finally to prevent the establishment of this General Synod by publishing our objections, because we believe, agreeably to the divine predictions, that the great falling away is approaching, so that Antichrist will set himself into the temple of God. 2 Thess. 2 We also believe that the establishment of General Synods are preparing the way for him.
In their letter of December 10, 1826, addressed to the pastors of the North Carolina Synod, Daniel Moser and David Henkel declared: "We also wish to appeal to the book called 'Concordia, as it is one of the principal symbolical books of the Lutheran Church." Confession No Mere Dead Letter.
The admonition, written by Paul Henkel and Streit, and added to the minutes, in a simple and earnest manner urges the congregations to introduce the reading-services, the instruction of the young, and to attend the private meetings. "Coldness and indifference in religion," they say, "is so universal that we must employ all possible means to awaken men to a true and living Christianity."
"And now I'm off to find the other fellows who were with me that night," continued Farley. Five minutes later Farley was explaining to Midshipman Henkel. "Well, you are the softy!" said Henkel, in a sneering tone. "Why?" demanded Farley stiffly. "To fall for a frame-up like that." "Do you mean that my cousin lied to me?" "No; but Grierson certainly did."
