RESERVED SACRAMENT.
Sir, —Will you permit an "idolater" to ask a question of Rev. L. H. Hunt, whose sermon you reported on Monday ? Is he serious when he accuses St. Augustine, St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Vincent de Paul, Sir Thomas More—or to take modern names at random, Pasteur, Foch, Mussolini, Cardinal Mcrcier, Prince Lichnowsky, etc., etc., of committing the sin of idolatry, and thereby lowering themselves to the level of savages ? Secondly, does he really believe that these men were, or are, so much below the intellectual calibre of his listeners at Mount Eden tnat they could be deluded, though in good faith ? Thirdly, does he maintain that his own ancestors, before the sixteenth century, committed the sin of idolatry, when they worshipped before the reserved sacrament 1 Out of the Garden of Eden came the first revelation.
