The Rev. Thomas Gowles, well known in Colonial circles where the Truth is valued, as "the Boanerges of the Pacific," departed this life at Hackney Wick, on the 6th of March, 1885. The Laodiceans in our midst have ventured to affirm that the world at large has been a more restful place since Mr. Gowles was taken from his corner of the vineyard.
"This," said the author, "occupies me until half-past six, when I take three baths, one hot, one cold, one like the church of the Laodiceans neither. This stimulates me marvellously." Scratch, scratch went the fountain-pen.
The matter may be put briefly thus: In Hardy's novels one sees the artistic result of an effort to paint life as it is, with much of its joy and a deal of its sorrow, with its good people and its selfish people, its positive characters and its Laodiceans, its men and women who dominate circumstances, and its unhappy ones who are submerged.

'And you approve? said Eleanor hotly. 'She has a vocation' said the Contessa with a sigh. 'She has a mother! cried Eleanor. 'Ah! madame you are a Protestant. These things are in our blood. When we are devout, like Teresa, we regard the convent as the gate of heaven. When we are Laodiceans like me we groan, and we submit.
Salute the brethren that are in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church which is at his house. And when this epistle hath been read among you, cause that it also be read in the church of the Laodiceans, and that ye also read that from Laodicea. And say to Archippus, Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received from the Lord, that thou fulfil it. The salutation of Paul with mine own hand.
The sanctified end must be wrought by sanctified means." "I tell thee," answered Balfour, "thy zeal is too rigid in this matter; we cannot yet do without the help of the Laodiceans and the Erastians; we must endure for a space the indulged in the midst of the council the sons of Zeruiah are yet too strong for us."
