DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Curious Church Gleanings The welcome given by the public and the press to my previous volume issued under the title "Curious Church Customs," has encouraged me to prepare on similar lines another collection of papers dealing with the byways and highways of Church history. My contributors have done their best to furnish articles of interest, and I think their work is of permanent value. I should be ungrateful if I did not express my gratitude for their assistance. I send forth this book hoping that it may not fail to prove entertaining, and throw some light on matters of interest to lovers of our National Church.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Church-Lore Gleanings Curious tales, too, are told in Cornwall of the selection of sites for churches, and of their erection. It is said, for instance, when a church was finished, its patron saint stood on the tower, and taking the builder's hammer, swung it round his head, and let it take what direction it might. Wherever it fell, there was the next church to be erected. The hammer thrown for St. Madron alighted on a pleasant place. The church stands on the brow of an eminence, which Slopes gradually down for about two miles to the shores of Mount's Bay.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Church-Lore Gleanings Mysterious invisible agency, interfering with the work of building, has formed the subject of many curious church legends. According to the general conception, underlying most of these traditions, a supernatural obstacle - to counteract which human power was helpless - frustrated the erection of certain churches on the sites originally selected. Hence, what was built during the day was persistently removed at night-time by unseen hands; this process having been repeated until the founders of such sacred structures submitted to the will of the higher powers by adopting the spots which they evidently considered more suitable. Many conjectures have been suggested to explain the antecedent history of this extensive group of legendary tales; but they may probably be traced back to a primitive period of ignorance and superstition, when a deep-rooted belief in all kinds of supernatural agencies originated most of those stories of wonder which survive in our midst to-day.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Gleanings by the Way I ran to many things that were wild, Which God's law does forbid. And when I became a man, I still followed the road of sin, Which led me to the devil's hand; Thus I did my manhood begin. When a child about two or three, My mother did me begin To teach me my A, B, C About He who died to save from sin. But not being a mental scholar, And loving to follow in sinful mirth The devil captured my mind as his fallow, As sin was sown in my nature from my birth. Thus I lived in years of sinful pleasure Until I was about thirty-eight; Drinking in the gall without measure, Until a very few years of late. Now when I am fifty years of age, Not possessing one earthly dollar, I come the truths of the Gospel to engage, Not spending one hour as a mental scholar.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Gleanings in Holy Fields The spiritual harvests of the Holy Land have been rich beyond comparison, and the labourers have been numerous beyond count. But what astonishes one most in that wonderful land is what remains in it over and above, that has not been gathered into the gamer. The gleanings of it are more abundant than the Whole harvests of other lands. Every reaper seems, like the young men of Boaz in the fields of Bethlehem, to let fall some of the handfuls on purpose for the benefit of his successor.
