“ In the history o'? our British people —the most human, kinly and l.v. iiised people on Garth—there was .ttomept when law came to its throne. .Men no longer settled their disputes by sword. The frowning keeps f the lny ot | S crumbled to ruins; and their U;iuu>ts moved ifnto sunlit paraeeH, The little finger.of the Lord C hief -Tv.stice became mightier than any ma.j'joj AVe Ciime to that mouien/g through the long process of civilisation. it was prepared for by the labour, the sacriiice and dedication if noble minds. There is no other wav to the final peace of the world Against the misty dreams of a pacifism based upon wild interpretations and fantastic emotions I set the rising towers and battlements of a city that hath 'foundations, the final Areopagus of the Leagued Nations of the world.”—Rev. Ooorge Shillito, at the Congregational Union Assembly.
