Description
Excerpt from War of Antichrist With the Church and Christian Civilization: Lectures Delivered in Edinburgh in October 1884
By the works of Sir Walter Scott and other writers. The land once evangelized by Columba and his bands of missionary saints, has besides an indescribable charm for a Catholic missionary. He went, therefore, with great pleasure to Scotland, and he cannot speak too highly or too thankfully of the kindness which the Venerable Archbishop of Glasgow, the Bishops and the Clergy he happened to meet with showed him. But, with the exception of a Sunday sermon to oblige the good pastor of whatever locality he happened to pass through, it was his fixed intention not to speak publicly during his rather rapid progress through the country. It happened, however, that on coming to Edinburgh he found an Old and very dear friend and College companion in charge of the most populous Catholic district Of the metropolis, and in deference to the earnest solicitations Of that friend, he departed from his resolution and gave during the few days his stay lasted, first, a lecture on Secret Societies for the benefit Of a large and ?ourishing Catholic Association for men and secondly, as a sequel to that, a lecture on the Spoliation Of the Propaganda.
