Meditating, on what an 'archbishop

of a 'Pett Ridge 'stpry, of a curate
in the East End of old London whe

There are men who can never be

opportunity for punching heads; but
I am not sure -that this applies to -the

churchman of obr time. •

But we haVe a great faith in, and a

I readwith a smile that broke into
a grin "and a laugh what Hazel B.

said of some of the people there, down
