IMMORTALITY OF THE SOUL.
DYING MAN'S BELIEF. CHURCH LEADERS IMPRESSED INCIDENT AT CONGRESS. By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright. (Received 7.5 p.m.) A. and N.Z. LONDON. Oct. 6. What is described as tho most remarkable scene ever witnessed at a Church Congress occurred at Southport after the reading of a notablo paper which was written by Professor J. .G. Adami, formerly vico-chancellor of Liverpool University, just before his death on August 29. The paper concluded : " I want to make it clear that the scientist may arrive at a clear knowledge of religious truth by tho very methods I employed at my own work. More and more as the years passed I have become convinced that the lovo of God is everything, and that if a man possesses this all other things are secondary. " This life is not tho end. Tho soul is immortal."
The Archbishop of York raised his hand and said : " Theso words from a dying man aro too important for us to pass on quickly to lessor things." Ho asked for silent meditation upon tho paper.
Everybody in tho crowded hall rose and stood silently while the hands of the clock registered three minutes. ,
