Few remember that when the Colonial army, shoi t of provisions, ot clothes, of ammunition, was in despair, that l’aine s crisis aioused them to bear their depri­ vation« a littlo longer. AU seem to have forgot ten that when the treasury wm « empty and men were clamoring for peace on any term«. Mr. Thomas Paine started a subscription, giving all he had. which filled the treasury, and eiiabled the armv to grant peace as Americans dictated. ••That Tom Paine was esteemed in his own day is evident. Rarely, it ever, has the United States government placed a man-of-war at the service of a private cilisen . yet this was done for Paine. Washington <*td not offer his hos­ pitality at Mount Vernon to a drunken profli­ gate. yet he invited Paine to become his guest as long as convenient. Neither colonial legis­ latures uor congress were Profuse in gifts or praise, yet both wert given Paine When he arrived at Paris.

Many will j read essays onnigher criticism, will listen to scholars as, in polished words, they say that, what Paine said, and will still worship the book, the day and the man; but a careful read­ ing of the “Age of Reasons” forever destroys the old superstitutions. “Listen friends to the ever-memorable words of the modern prophet, certainly no more un­ savory in appeatance, if you believe the worst, than some of the Jewish prophets: “My country is the world; to do good my re­ ligion.” No one since the time of Tesus has more completely summed .up the spirit of the New Testament, and no one more thoroughly practiced his religion than did Paine, on the evidence of even his worst enemies. He ex- posed himself to the charges of profligacy and mid penuriousuess that he might render assis. tauce to Madame lie Bonneville and her chil­ dren. Not only did Paine work for liberty in Amerjca, but in England and France s well. To the eud of his life he was planning for uni­ versal peace and general freedom. Judged by what we know ot him and not by scandals founded on lies, Thomas Paine jvas a better Christian than those who revile his memory and his words, “My country is the world; to do good my religion,” might be inscribed as a golden text in every Christian Church.” Turning to Paine’s portrait, Mr. Copeland concluded: “Can any one look 011 that face and believe for a moment the stories which have been told about the immorality and his terrible deathbed. Clean-cut, vigorous, vivacious and determined, that man, who would not quail before the French mob, would never weaken before the accident of death. Such as the picture shows him, such was he to the end. Honor, all honor to the hero of the Revolution, the friend of hu­ manity and the prophet of God.” There will !>• a calle«!
