SMITH'S FARM & GARDEN CENTRE *T's 82 South St- !, Goderich II „,,oNs FOR ALL OCe $ S1O tis 'Even Darwin believed at last in the creation BY BY OSWALD J. SMITH BIBLE MISSIONARY CHURCH RR5 GODERICH It may surprise students of Evolution, who do not know, to learn that in the closing days of his life, Charles Dar .'in returned to his faith in the Bible. Many a man, as he approaches the end and consequently comes more consciously in'the presence. of God'" and `Eternity,`` has regretted both his views and his conduct -_Such -a one was— Darwin. The story is told by Lady Hope, of Northfield, England, a wonderful Christian woman who was often at Darwin's bedside before he died. She herself writes the story, and not only is it interesting, it is most enlightening. Here it is in her own words: "It was one of those glorious autumn af- ternoons that we sometimes enjoy in England, when I was asked to go in and sit with the well-known professor, Charles Darwin. He was almost bedridden for some time before he died. I used to feel when I saw him that his fine presence should have made a grand picture for our Royal Academy; but never did I• think so more strongly than on this particular occasion. "He was sitting up in bed, wearing a soft, embroidered dressing gow f a rather soft purphade. Propped up by, pillows, he was gazing out on a far -stretching scene of woods and cornfields, which glowed in the light of a mar- velous sunset. His noble forehead and fine features seemed to be lit ' with pleasure as I entered the room. "He waved his hand toward the window as he pointed out the scene beyond, while in the other hand, he held an open Bible, which he was always studying. "What are you reading now?"' 'I asked as I was seated by his bedside. 'Hebrews,' he answered — 'still Hebrews, The Royal Book I call it.' Then, placing his fingers on certain passages, he commented on them. "I made some allusions to the strong opinions expressed by many persons on this history of the Creation, its grandeur and then their treatment of the earliest chapters of the Book of Genesis. "He seemed greatly distressed, his fingers twitched nervously, and a Wok of agony came over his face as he said, ' was a young man with un- formed idea,I threw out queries, suggestions, wondering all the time over everything: and to my astonishment the ideastook like wildfire. People made a religion of them.' �► "Then he paused, and filigterfs' stu after , a few. more sen- tences on 'the holiness of God' and 'the grandeur of this°"Book' looking at the Bible which he held tenderly all the time, he suddenly said, 'I have a summerhouse in the garden which holds about 30 people. It is over there', pointing through the open window. 'I want you very much to speak there. I know you read the Bible in the villages. Tomori ow afternoon I should like the servants of the place, some ten- nants, a few of the neigh- bours, to gather there. Will you speak to them?' "What shall I speak about?" I asked. 'Christ Jesus!' he replied, 'and His salvation. -Is not --that the best theme? And then I want_-you._to---singe-some hymns with them.' "The wonderful look of brightness and animation on his face as he said this, I shall never forget, for he added, 'If you take the meeting at three o'clock • \this window will be open, and you wi* know that I am joining in with the singing.' "How I wished that I could have made -a pic- ture of the fine old man and his beautiful surroundings on that memorable day!" Was there ever a more dramatic scene? Tho very soul of tragedy is here exposed to us! Darwin, enthusiast of the County Council.
