MB COAD'S MISSION.
TO THE KDITOK.
Siu, —1 was very sorry to see in your last night's issuo the un-Chribtianlikc way Mr Coad'3 lecture has been mentioned. Why did not "Observer" insert his letter in Monday night's Stak, and so give Mr Coad a fair chance to reply, instead of attacking him behind his back ? The reason Mr Coad asked Christian people to speak to the unsaved was because most of his hearers were members of the Salvation Army, who are ever ready to speak for the Master whom they Berve with their whole hearts. And in speaking of mothers selling their children for money he spoke the truth ; but, though that is often very painful, it is a fact that mothers as a rule think very little of the character of tho men to whom they would give their daughters so long as they have plenty of money. The happiness of their children is oftentimes a secondary consideration. Mr Coad came here with an earnest intention of doing good, and I am quite sure lie has done eo ; and may God blecs him and the causo he is fighting for wherover he goes.—l am, etc., Onk Who Advocates Tempkkance. Dunedin, November C.
