not the depths of wickedness of which the Church
of Rome is capable will not believe them. In one
convent a complete theater was found. In a nun-
nery bodies were discovered in walled-up cells in
such a way that it was seen they had been placed
there alive and left to die, some with their knees
chained to their necks. Elsewhere, complete ma-
chinery for making false coins and false bank notes
was found, improper letters and picture post cards,
instruments of torture, and other things which can-
not be put on paper. It is pretty safe to suppose
that a history of these revelations will never be pub-
lished in Spain, and if such is published abroad,
most people will think the statements are gross
exaggerations and libels.”

: What One Bible Did.

Some time ago, an old, worn, and tattered Bible,
in a foreign language, was sent as a gift to the
British and Foreign Bible Society. On the fly-leaf
of it was this inscription:

“This Bible, unassuming and plain in its ap-
pearance, and tattered and worn as to its condition,
has been the instrument of pointing out the way
of salvation to a whole generation of faithful chil-
dren of God. Forty-six adults have been added to
the Protestant Church as the result of reading this
book. A number at least: equally great, who did
not secede outwardly from the Romish ‘Church,
learned, through its teaching, saving faith in a cru-
cified Savior, and died a blessed death, relying only
on the grace of God in Christ.”
