Moreover, not one kind of dinosaur alone but many diverse kinds, which have taken time enough to branch o& from the original stock, whatever that was, have, without the least shadow of doubt, also lived and died. Probably the slow processes that have led up to such bizarre manifestations of former life in many cases ran concurrently, like jail sentences, but even so, enormous quantities of time must have been demanded for the accomplishment of these known results. It does not seem likely that a sane and reasonable Creator ever made one of these dinosaurs de novo, "out of whole ; They bear every mark of having been repeatedly cut over and reassembled out of preceding garments.
