and which I edit in my own individual capacity, I am

some personal explanations.

ardour. Notwithstanding all these grounds for a favour-
able prejudice, I confess that I could not bring myself
to believe what had been told me of the Jesuit
Cor8ference.

veracity. Nevertheless it was not until I had had
some very serious conversations with men whose
perspicacity and good scme it would have been a
