. T. DeWitt Talmage : his life and work : biographical edition . 26S A GOSPEL TOUR OF THE GLOBE 269 and that the Bible is our only directory to a blessed eternity. That is the key-note of my sermon this morning. In the evening Dr. Talmage preached in Agricultural Hall, London, to a vastand enthusiastic audience on The Mission of Christ. The Young Mens Christian Association of Leeds, England, desired to makesome expression of the high esteem in which Dr. Talmage was held by them,and to show their gratitude to him for the pecuniary benefits derived from hisvisit, entertained him at a public breakfast. The association needed a more com-modious building, and the profit from Dr. Talmages lectures in England (about$6,000, which the Y. M. C. A. received) was a material help to them in theireffort.

If, by any strange possibility, it could be proved that thegreat dramatist was born anywhere else, it would ruin all the cab-drivers, guidesand hostelries of the place.
