Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Editor of the Examiner
But even the enumeration of these possibilities must not be taken as giving the least biographical clue to the. Experiences of Father Elphinstone. What we intend to do is, on the contrary, to take the purely objective course of writing an essay on a subject of which Father Elphinstone was supposed to be entirely ignorant - a subject of constant recurrence among all classes of' men and Women, and on which sound and thorough instruction is badly needed. We should hardly have had the boldness to tackle the theme unprovoked, and so, considering its vital importance, feel rather grateful for' the stimulus which this story has incidentally afforded. Needless to say, our handling of the subject will contain nothing which might not safely be utilised' as Sunday reading in a convent school.
