Overview

Excerpt from Wickedness in High Places: A Review of the Beecher Case The first edition of this Review was written and published under the clearest and strongest conviction of duty - to myself, the ministry, to the Church, and to the cause of Christian virtue. It was a duty that I would gladly have escaped. I commenced the investigation with the confident hope of finding Mr. Beecher guiltless. Had such been the result of my examination, the verdict of acquittal would have been a pleasant one, and the task of upholding it by proof most thoroughly congenial. As the result was different, and step by step I had reached an unwavering conviction of his guilt, I hesitated to declare it. Most earnestly I prayed that, if possible, the cup might pass from me. But, more and more, the conviction was borne in upon me, that fidelity to the Master demanded that the verdict be rendered according to the facts. Had there been a shadow of doubt I should never have written a line. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
