• Notes

  And there was MRS. GRACE ADDISON, with all the delicacy of her Highland appreciation of sacred things, and her strongly accentuated dislike of unreality in the spiritual life. Her firm adher ence to the holy Word and intolerance of any thing that usurped its place or dislodged its law was marked. There was for her in the Scripture an unquestioned finality. The prophet Isaiah sounded out the deep feeling of her heart when he cried: " Hear, O Heaven, and give ear, O earth; for the Lord hath spoken." That excluded all controversy. When the Supreme Wisdom uttered His voice there was nothing more to be said.1a 1aEbenezer: A History of the Central Presbyterian Church, Galt, Ontario, with brief sketches of some of its members who have passed on the the other side, The Rev. James A. R. Dickson
