...caught the spirit of Webster's "Against Secession." but his voice lacked the power to give it adequate expression. C. M. Thayer gave an intelligent, but not very forcible rendering of Hoar's "The Ordinances of 1787." W. L. Monro, who followed him, delivered Mrs. Runcie's "Anselmo the Priest." a piece which calls for considerable dramatic ability; his rendering of it was an excellent effort. W. H.

...place it is necessery to understand the problem. In works among the poor, the influence of the Catholic church is most important. The work of the church is admirable, but its ideas of civilization are different from ours, and if more than amusement or manual training is attempted, the priest is sure to interfere.
